Learning how to code

Miss Bryceland and Miss Ali Khan have written some code for some simple games.

To play the games you need to click on the green flag and move your mouse around the screen to avoid the main character. Try to get a high score.

Have a go and then leave a comment so we know what you think.

When you are commenting consider the following:

What did you like about the game?
What worked well?
What needs improving?
How would you make it even better?

Stage 3 Parliament of Wizards

Stage 3 students have been learning about the levels of government in Australia’s democracy and the role of the parliament in creating laws. Students have also been learning about what it means to be an Australian citizen and how people can participate as global citizens.

To make this learning fun and engaging, we, the Stage 3 teachers set a group task for students where they had to create a wizard world, complete with its own parliament!! In this world, the students became wizards and faced the challenge of representing and making decisions on behalf of their wizard citizens. Students had to come up with a ‘wizardish’ name for their Wizard World like Ziombondi, Flowermania and much more!

Here are some fantastic ‘Wizard Worlds’ created by our creative Stage 3 wizards:

All about Bears by Samira

Bears are dangerous omnivores. They eat other animaals such as flesh of animlas fruits and vegetables. Bears can almost eat anything. During the winter season bears give birth to young rather than laying eggs.

There are many types of bears such as the polar bears, grizzlybears and pandas. Australian koalas are not actually bears, they are known as (pouched animals).

Bears are strong heavy creatures with thick limbs, small tails and small ears. They have a thick coat of fur that keeps them warm in the cold seasons. It has crushing back teeth known as molars. Bears have poor eyesight and hearing that can be used for hunting. They have an excellent sense of smell that they can use for hunting.
