The Bowerbirds earned all their eggs in the class nest and today got to do their baking! We made brownies and cheesy pizza scrolls (plus some plain scrolls for our friends who don’t eat cheese). Students worked together to make a plan considering our safety, hygiene and classroom logistics to get our food made. After that we used mathematical modelling to determine how many pieces we needed to slice our brownie into followed by how many scrolls we’d made to be able to share them fairly. We used arrays, multiplication and addition to help us decide to slice the brownie into 4 columns and 5 rows, allowing us to make 20 pieces. This meant we had enough for one slice each, including our friends who weren’t at school today. We realised that the scrolls wouldn’t keep as nicely so we found a way to share them between everyone at school. The class kindly offered to gift our 1 remaining brownie slice and 1 last scroll to Miss Melissa, who graciously accepted (having been assured the most stringent safety and hygiene processes had been followed!) What a fun afternoon of learning for all 🥰

Our Starlings and Bowerbirds had a fantastic day at the Pullenvale Environmental Education Centre.

Students took part in the Ramble and Play and Mission Earth programs, exploring the natural environment through hands-on activities, teamwork, investigation and imaginative play. From discovering local habitats to learning about sustainability and caring for our world, the day was filled with curiosity, adventure and fun.

It was wonderful to see students working together, taking risks, asking thoughtful questions and connecting with nature in meaningful ways. A big thank you to the PEEC staff for providing such engaging learning experiences!

UBSS Nature Detectives have made their pledge to nurture and protect our natural world.
The Under 8's day was glorious with the sun shining and all the support from our families and teachers. The students and our new Nestlings were exploring the environment, creating bird feeders and generally being curious about the world around them.
