Yoga in the mornings...

Here is a video of Nicola's base group doing yoga in the mornings. They learnt the sequence and made the sequence themselves. They are having so much fun and they feel relaxed, rejuvenated and ready for learning! Take a look...

Year 3 Technology afternoon

Some students in Year 3 have been logging into their Worser Bay Google Accounts for the first time. Students have taken home our Acceptable Use of Technologies Agreement and have discussed how to be a good digital citizen with their parents or caregivers.

Staying safe online runs through everything that we do when using digital technologies.


Students have been learning how to log into their accounts and to send an email.

Google Apps for Education: Setting up our Year 3 students

Google Accounts have been successfully set up for students in the seniors.  Setting up Google Accounts for Year 3 children will assist with the transition from the juniors to the seniors.

A major focus that underlies everything is digital citizenship. Students have taken home the WBS Acceptable Use of Technologies, developed by them and their teachers. They will have discussed it with you and it has been signed and returned to school. Safety is paramount and we take this very seriously.

Here is a link to the agreement:

Year 3 children, who have signed our Acceptable Use of Technologies Agreement, will be set up with Google Accounts during Term 1.

We are excited about the opportunities that will prepare our children for a future that will be very different to our own.

Please speak with Nicola, Shona, Scott or Chrissy if you have any questions
