Firstly, a big shout-out to our June Birthday Boy! Happy 5th Birthday. May all your wishes come true!

We have come to a close for Unit 1 Who We Are – our roles in school and at home. It’s a wrap! It was fruitful inquiry for Savanna students as we started the new school year. We learned about our roles and responsibilities. We discovered more about ourselves and one another. We shared about our families too. Our reflection: I liked the game “Who is Missing”. Learning numbers and letter songs were fun. I was happy because Mummy and Daddy here for Open Day. I like drawing my friends. The bus trip we had dinosaur hunt. I liked the bento lunch. I like drawing Mummy. Mini book (We Are Family) is good.

To beat the heat, we had water play at the park and mud play in the schoolyard!

To celebrate Tanabata or Star Festival, Savannah made lanterns. We will write down our wishes and hang them on our ISN bamboo tree. We re-enacted the story of Tanabata too! The story of Princess Orihime, her father the King and Cow Herder Hikoboshi was dramatised with much fun and laughter! We followed this version of the story, please see video below “Tanabata Story”. We learned Tanabata songs too.

Thank you dear Parents and families for your wonderful support. We look forward to learning together in the next unit. Till next week, have a lovely weekend!
