We really love the Allen Centre

Every lunchtime wonderful activities are available in the Allen Centre. Abigail became a conchologist today and sorted and graded shells. Charlotte and Charlie happily did shell art together while Dylan worked hard with Jade, a big buddy, and learnt how to make a fishing fly.

Josh and big buddy Bailey followed a plan and made a remarkable machine that could make wonderful designs. We are so lucky to have the Allen Centre!

The Key Competencies

This term we are focusing on the Key Competency of participating and contributing. First we talked about Gregory Smith the remarkable boy who has made a significant contribution to helping children in need around the world. Next we talked about brilliant Bridgette who is setting up a book swap initiative based on the Lilliput Libraries. The book swap will be open Thursday and Friday. What a great contribution Bridgette! We then talked about the wonderful contribution our parents make to Outram School. We are very excited that the new recipe book will be launched on Sunday. Then we talked about Aleisha Cotton and Kelsey Hoggard and the wonderful contribution they made to some schools in Samoa. We looked at examples around Outram School where we have seen children participating and contributing. This week we looked at the contribution that the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is making.
