Principal Report
I hope all our mothers across our community had a wonderful Mother’s Day last weekend. I thank the P&C for providing the K-2 students with a stall and our 3-6 students with their portraits. I thoroughly enjoyed my gifts and I hope all our Berinba mothers did as well. This week our Year 3 & 5 students have been taking part in NAPLAN assessments, with writing, reading and literacy conventions being sat already. Next week will see the conclusion of the assessments with numeracy on Tuesday. Mr Bradley will endeavour to catch up any students who have missed out due to absence. Feedback around the assessments will be provided later in the year. The scores from these assessments will tell you how your child did on the day. While the assessments do provide important data to the school, at Berinba we know there is much more that makes each of our students exceptional and unique. Some of our older students across the senior grades have been taking part in a range of PSSA trials and knockouts of late. At Berinba we consider these extracurricular activities important to providing a well-rounded education that taps into a variety of students’ interests. There are plans later in the year to engage in different technology, performing arts and chess enrichment opportunities as well. We love sharing their success with the community and will continue to do so via Facebook. Malena Waibel

Thank you Barry , especially for all the extra fun things you do.
5/6MS
Term 2 and 5/6MS has settled quickly into class routines and
learning.
This week MS students were learning about the different parts
that need to go into writing a persuasive paragraph.
Using the OREO process, students have begun to understand
how a paragraph is formed and what they need to include.
It was also made fun when completing an OREO paragraph
students got to enjoy a real Oreo
In Science we have been learning about the power of light. We have been involved in a range of experiments including making shadow puppets and investigating materials that are transparent, translucent and opaque. Next, we are going to learn how light can bounce.
KID’S CORNER
