Chloe and Bella with their wraps and Michael with his sandwich.
Students in Year One participated in Super Sandwich Day.
The students have been learning about healthy eating and celebrations in class and used all of their knowledge to create a super healthy sandwich or wrap.
We were lucky to have such amazing support from the Year One parents in providing ingredients and preparing the food. The music room resembled a Subway shop, where students moved around the amongst a range of breads, spreads, cold meats and endless vegetables.
They were required to use at least three ingredients in their sandwich and to try something new. The Year One students did this really well and created tasty and healthy sandwiches or wraps for their lunch.
As a part of the Celebrations unit, they have been learning about the importance of sharing a meal.
At lunchtime, they each received a bottle of water, popcorn, a banana and their super sandwich and enjoyed it with their whole grade.
This was a great day and learning experience for all of the students and we extend our appreciation to everyone who donated their time or foods.

Holiday time means extra reading time- the school holidays are the perfect chance for our OLA readers to make progress on the Premier’s Reading Challenge! There's not long to go until it closes. With a little extra time to unwind and get lost in a book, it’s a great opportunity to tick off a few more titles from your list. We love seeing these familiar faces soaking up quiet reading moments these holidays- proof that reading can happen anywhere, anytime. We hope these photos make you smile! At OLA, we 'READ TO SUCCEED'!

Year 2 finished the term with a fantastic HSIE excursion to Longneck Lagoon EEC. They learnt about the ways people connect to and care for places, water environments, and each other, using geographical information. It was so much fun!! Thank you to our Year 2 teachers for organising this, and our wonderful parent helpers who joined us and helped on the day!

Today we proudly acknowledged our new Semester 2 SRC members- students chosen by their peers to represent their classes with responsibility and pride. One of the highlights was seeing families join their children on stage as badges were presented. The smiles and pride on every face said it all. Congratulations to our Semester 2 SRC Team!
