Well done to our chess players today. 👍We all worked hard with some wins and losses but I know we've learned loads about strategies and the rules of chess.

Friday festivities in a rainy Kilcoskan

Great group problem solving session...
Painting super still life drawings focusing on colour mixing, shades and tones... 
and we're pros at procedural writing using imperative verbs and time connectives. 
Oh and we finally finished 'Benny and Omar' the class novel with only a few tears,😢 it was a bit of an emotional roller coaster at the end. 📖

Open heart construction in progress

It might not look like it yet from these pictures but we might have some budding heart surgeons in the making! 
More pictures as promised...
Here are some of the finished products. 








Christmas Crafts

We're starting early this year but we'll hopefully have cool Christmas crafts to share come December 25! 🎅🎁






Chess champions in training 💪

Chess bootcamp is well underway so watch out Rolestown NS on the 25th. 
Kilcoskan king krushers are ready for the challenge....
Strategising and a lot of serious 'thinking faces' going around these days. 😕

Thanks to the patient models and all the artists who worked hard to get scale and proportion correct especially under time pressure. ⏳
