As part of bilingual, Civics and Citizenship Inquiry Unit of work, ‘Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité, Democracy’, Year 5 had an incursion online with The Museum of Australian Democracy this week. They virtually visited MOAD to investigate the importance of values and processes to Australia’s democracy and find out about the roles of different people in Australia’s legal system. The children enjoyed this virtual tour and although it would have been better to visit Old Parliament House if we could have, the children were happy not to have to walk there.

Commemoration

The commemoration of the Armistice of November 11 was celebrated by the school differently this year. A wreath was laid in honor of the dead of the Great War in front of our memorial. In order to involve the students, a video was shown in class.

Changes to public transport for school students

Updated bus timetables, including dedicated school buses starting Monday 25 October 2021

Transport Canberra’s dedicated school bus services will recommence on Monday 25 October 2021. This includes ‘S’ trips that divert into schools.

Please plan ahead as timings have changed for both dedicated school services and the regular timetable. We are strongly encouraging families to check their school pack and plan ahead.

Special Needs Transport continues to run for those families that need this service. A range of COVID-safe measures are in place to help keep students safe on public transport. Please familiarise yourself with these measures and talk to your children about them before the return to school. The revised interim timetables are online.
