Run, run, as fast as you can....

You can't catch us
We're the Korora Clan!



Yes, today was Sports Day at Wentworth Primary and spectators were treated to a dazzling display of our sporting prowess in throwing, running and jumping events.









One of the highlights of the day was the Y5/6 high jump event, with Maddie and Rosie representing our class in the girls' final and Mattias in the final of the boys' competition. Our girls finished in second and third place but Mattias won his event, breaking the longstanding school record with a massive jump of 1m 20cm.

Results are being collated and will be published next week, with our top Y5 & 6 athletes going forward to represent our school in the forthcoming Interschool Athletics competition.

Congratulations to all our competitors! It was a fantastic day and wonderful to see you all doing your best and cheering each other on!

We are Sailing.......

Ahoy, Maties! 

Y4, 5 & 6 had sailing taster days at Hobbs Wharf. The weather was up and down for the Y5/6 group but beautiful the following day when Y4 had their turn.Working in pairs, the children learned to rig their boats; tell in which direction the wind was blowing; and to manoeuvre their boats during games and races.

Flower Power

We have been producing flowers in Art using a variety of media. Our water colour paintings and paper sculptures have been inspired by Georgia O'Keefe and Frida Kahlo.













We have been weaving flax flowers with Mrs. King.

 
 

Vitruvian students

My maths group have been busy measuring themselves this term. We discovered that Leonardo Da Vinci was a mathematician who was interested in shape and proportion. We used his Vitruvian Man as a starting point to find out how our limbs are related proportionally.

Teamwork - Ready, steady, lift...

Easy does it...




   

Run, penguins, run...

Our wonderful Korora class ran their fastest in the school cross-country event. All of them finished - they are such superstars!




















Our Interschools Cross-Country Team


Each of our runners beat their previous placings - a superb achievement!
