As part of Science and English, we have been learning all about minibeasts. We explored different areas of our beautiful school garden and found lots of different creatures. We also checked in on our bean plants and are delighted to report that flowers have appeared on them and they are growing tall!

Grandparent’s Day
We had a fantastic day in Maryborough National School when our grandparents and parents came to visit.
