Greats and Grands

We had a wonderful afternoon last Friday when students invited their special older friends and relatives to school, their Greats and Grands. Students were able to play shared games with their Greats and Grands and enjoy an afternoon tea together.

21st Century Learning - Thank you FOGS & BOT

It was an exciting day on Wednesday the 15th October 2014 when our new ICT equipment arrived at school. This included 7 ipads for Room 5, 7 ipads for Room 4, 2 ipads for Room 2 and the upgraded iMac pod of computers being gifted to Room 2, 12 Chromebooks for Room 3 and 2 ipads for Room 3, 2 ipads for Room 6 to go with the one to one laptops they have already in that classroom. These fantastic resources were made available as a result of our hard working fundraising group, Friends Of Gladstone School who gave the school $13,000. We are also grateful to our  BOT who have ensured funding is available to support the technician aspect of getting this equipment integrated and professional learning opportunities made available for our staff to provide purposeful learning opportunities.

Principals Morning Tea Outing - Term 3

On the 25th October 2014 I was able to share the morning with a group of wonderful students during th Principals Morning Tea outing. This included a visit to Genesis Recreation Centre followed by morning tea at the Solway Cafe Driving Range. Two students from each class were nominated to go on this outing (by their teachers) for not only displaying our school values, but showing consistent positive attitude and effort towards their school programme over Term 3.
