NEWS FROM OTFORD SCHOOL

We have just had our small schools athletics carnival and coming up soon is the district. Not all of the kids in Otford managed to get into the district but everyone raced really well. Years 2/3 and 4/5/6 tried out for high jump, long jump, shot put and discus and some people qualified for everything; others got into a few events. Good luck to everyone!
Science
Here at Otford, year 6 has been working on some new displays to put up at LJ Hooker. Most of the work shows our science projects. Some people made their projects from K’nex and other people used solar electricity or battery powered electrical circuits. By the way, THANK YOU MR HOOKER!
Southern Stars
Southern Stars is finally here! It’s a huge dance spectacular held at the Wollongong Entertainment Centre with over 2,000 kids involved from all over the Illawarra. It is coming up soon and everyone is really excited. We have had one practice so far with other schools but we have been practising at our school too. This year our item is going to be nursery rhymes with three other schools. Soon the dance with the wonderful mice costumes will be perfect. We all can’t wait.
