Yesterday, Barry and Cynda from "The Historical Tool Box" visited Year 5A and 5B students. They prepared a variety of activities for the students to enjoy. These activities increased the students' understanding of how life was for our early settlers and the types of experiences they had in their daily lives.
The students learnt how to play "Ngaka Ngaka", an Aboriginal version of noughts and crosses. They made chest plates and silver coins, crushed spices and used feathers and ink to write fancy notes.
The students also enjoyed dressing up as some of the famous people who influenced the early settlers. It was a wonderful incursion and we all learnt a lot from it.
Thank you Barry and Cynda for visiting our ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ.

My name is Ms Cheryl and I have been teaching at Al ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ since 2011. I am pleased to announce that I have accepted the position of Team Leader for Year 4 and HifzA. As Team Leader, my responsibilities include looking after the pastoral care of all Year 4 students and ensuring that everyone behaves in a dignified and positive way.
I graduated with a Diploma of Teaching in 1986 and a Bachelor of Education in 1991. I started my teaching career at the Australian International Academy (AIA) in 1988. During my 12 years at the Academy, I taught all Primary levels and held a wide variety of positions of responsibility. After leaving AIA, I taught at a State school in the Inner Melbourne suburbs, I ceased work for a short while to raise a family.
I believe that I bring a variety of skills and many years of experience and knowledge to the classroom and enjoy playing an important role in guiding students towards being life – long learners. I look forward to working with you and the Year 4 and HifzA teachers to ensure that 2021 is a rewarding year for us all.
