Mid year Reports

Teachers are currently in the process of writing Mid-year reports. These will be sent home in the first week of Term 3, with Parent-Teacher meetings taking place in week 2 of Term 3 from July 26th - 30th. Booking sheets for Parent-Teacher meeting times will be coming home soon. We strongly encourage all families to come to Parent-Teacher meetings. These provide an important opportunity to discuss your child’s progress as well as how we can work together to support each other and the growth and wellbeing of each child in our school.

Songroom

At Glen Huon, the Song Room program has continued into 2021, and every class has had weekly music sessions with Song Room facilitator Isaac Gee.

Unlike most music programs, Song Room partners with teachers, giving them tools to bring music into the classroom and incorporate it into student’s everyday lives in the form of group singing, rhythm games, brain break activities, and song writing.

This year, the Grade 2/3's have learned to sing and perform some beautiful folk songs, led by Mrs Munro. The Grade 1/2's have been learning about percussion instruments. The Grade 5/6's have been working out some difficult rhythms, as well as investigating emotion in music and how it can be used to persuade. The Grade 4/5’s have written their very own song about the life cycle of the plant. And the Kinder and Prep classes have danced, sung, and played instruments beautifully.

 It has been great to see Glen Huon Primary’s creative spirit shine through and embrace music as part of the school’s culture.

Don’t forget to put our Songroom Assembly into your calendars for 2:00pm Tuesday 29 June.
