ELC News Term 3 Week 4
ELC News
The ELC children had an amazing Science Week full of exploration and discovery and lots of experiments. We learnt that chemical reactions can occur when we mix some substances together. The Stingrays made bubbling lemon volcanoes and the Turtles blew up balloons with bicarb and vinegar and made bouncy eggs with vinegar. The Lobsters also learnt that some substances don’t mix when they created oil and water artwork. We used coloured water and celery to discover how plants get water and we launched people-powered rockets with our buddies. It’s been a week full of curiosity, questions, and lots of ‘wow’ moments!
Assumption of Mary
The Lobsters have been busy preparing for the Assumption Mass which is being held on Friday. They were deeply engaged as they carefully painted Mary.
Book Week Parade – 20/22 August
Our annual Book Week parade is in Week 5 - Turtles and Stingrays on Wednesday 20 August and Lobsters on Friday 22 August. Children are invited to come dressed as their favourite book character.
