Jobs Parents Do

The following parents were kind to spend their time and share their job expertise with the class when we were learning about jobs people do. A big thank you to these wonderful people.
Michael who is the Operations Manager at Supercheap Auto spoke about his job.

Jennifer from Fisher and Pykel Health Care spoke to the children about what she does. Here she is demonstrating how to use a breathing chamber.

Connie a stay at home told the children about her jobs at home. Now the children realise that parents that stay home also have lots of jobs to do.
Krystal, the bank manager at the ANZ Bank spoke to the children about what she does at the bank. She also advised children to start saving so they can bank their money and each child was given a piggybank to get started with saving.

Statistics




For Maths we have been learning about Statistics. We learnt how to group things and display it on a graph. We have also learnt to discuss the results of the graph. Here are some of our graphs. Your children can talk to you about them.
