What a busy week we have had and next week will be just as busy!
The cast has been busy preparing for The Jungle Book production for next week. If you haven't purchased your tickets there are still plenty available. They will also be sold at the door.

Family Life
Today we discussed how we inherit traits from our parents through genetic material called DNA. We know that half our DNA comes from mom and half from dad. We touched on how some traits are dominant while others are recessive. Ask your mom and dad if they can roll their tongues. Check out their earlobes!
Math
Today we practiced measuring to the nearest millimetre precisely. We will continue with this on Monday.

Physical Education
Congratulations to all students who tried out for track and field. I am very proud of your efforts. Today we had some fun with high jump.
Reminders
Next week marks the beginning of Catholic Education Week. The theme this year is "Exploring Paths of Joy".
“Were not our hearts burning within us while He was talking to us on the road?” – Luke 24:32
Do you remember which Easter Story this quote is from? Do you remember who said it?


PLEASE REMEMBER TO FINISH YOUR BRICK. WRITE ON THE BRICK A WORD THAT BRINGS YOU JOY AND DECORATE OR ILLUSTRATE YOUR WORK CREATIVELY. THIS WILL BE DISPLAYED IN THE FRONT HALLWAY FOR EDUCATION WEEK.
