Welcome Auntie 'chelle, We hope that this blog will provide an alternative to awaiting full emailed letters student to student. This will alow the classes to correspond on topics and events in our school settings and perhaps a venue for inter class projects /correspondence. As usual this is a big step for Princess Ralph to leave his comfort zone around technology and venture into something new. I hope this blog will evolve into something special to connect our students and make their learning and social interactions more meaningful. I hope I am ready. Howzat! Princess Ralph

    Just checking to see if this works. We have had MAJOR changes to our school this term and most of our time has been working out a model that will suit our extra enrolments. So - sorry for my tardiness!! We will access this blog asap when Term 2 begins. We have had to restructure most classes to form a 16th class. Will send some information very soon. Enjoy your Easter break!

    3. Jessica reply: that's cool. I was wondering what is the Nitro circus? Our school year is ending very soon and we still have lots to do. What type of art do you do in your school?

    4. Annika said: What is a Nitro Circus? We don't have those here. What is AFL? We studied Australia and I really really like the sugar gliders, lyre birds, koalas, peacock spiders, cotton harlequin bugs and kingfishers. What is you favorite Australian animal? P.S. Guess what!? You can buy sugar gliders to keep as pets here! They're quite expensive though. Hope you had a great time in Sydney!
