The K1.1 students of Ms Joanne, together with Ms Angela relieved the event of St Martin, who is known to be a very kind soldier. The kindergarten assistant together and Ms Angela re-enacted this event. Students were then given time to role play this event. San Martin02The students had a follow-up activity where they prepared acorns and other crafts related to St Martin and to the season of Autumn.

In the above photos we can see year 3 students of Ms Rosette doing a collage with leaves which have fallen from trees. Apart from doing crafts, the students learnt that during autumn many trees shed their leaves.

Another important lesson learnt is that one should never cut leaves from trees. All leaves used in this craft session were picked from the school garden which had fallen from trees.
