DOJO CHALLENGE THIS WEEK!
It would appear that our Primary students have a very keen eye and are fantastic seekers and finders as there were lots of amazing discoveries linked to our House names, mascots and House colours! I saw a wonderful range of objects found in a wide variety of locations and all created a fabulous display of colourful and unique objects that spelled out our Houses and Mascots! Great job to all Primary students taking part in the last challenge!
Well done to the Sapi Sunbears who were the winning House for Dojo challenges by just one participant!!
Now it’s time to find out what challenges you can involve yourself in this week.

Our Fun Challenge this week sees the return of an old favourite challenge from last year. Our photographic competition “Life Thru a Lens” is back this week with an amazing theme that gets you thinking about fresh starts. Can you take a photograph that represents “New Beginnings” and what it means to you? If you want some ideas on what photos you could take, our Y6 House Captains have you covered. Scan your House colour QR code for some hot tips from our Captains and get snapping away with a photo to show New Beginnings. Winning entries from each House in each Key Stage will be displayed in our Primary Key Stage Office. Good luck everyone!
