Wakakirri 2014

Yesterday and today I had the privilege of taking students in grades 3-7 to Mackay where they performed in the 2014 Wakakirri event. This is a performing arts opportunity where students perform a story dance on the big stage at Mackay Entertainment centre. Mrs Tully thoroughly enjoyed teaching the Prep class on Friday and said everyone was working hard to earn her ‘moustache’ stickers.
The exciting news is that Merinda students received the Public Speaking award at Wakakirri – winning 1 of 3 awards given. 9 schools competed. This is the type of school activity our Preps can look forward to in their future years of school. Well done Merinda!

Circus Circus Circus

Wow! What an amazing job you all did last Wednesday at our Circus showcase. Your costumes were fabulous, the dancing was splendid and your circus tricks really did ooh, aaah and giggle the audience! Mrs P was so busy clowning about, I forgot to take some individual photos. Parents if any of you have a photo of your child dressed up in their circus costume please email to me at kpeth6@eq.edu.au
See if you recognise these two clowns below 😜
