Good Afternoon, I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and enjoyed this incredible weather. It was a quiet weekend in the Hurst/Schoen household, filled with dog walks on the beach and some much needed R & R for the week ahead. The highlight of my weekend was talking to my family back home in Ireland on Skype. Well done on getting through your second week in Year 6.

  Good afternoon, All I can say is...it's great to be back! Whilst I was very grateful for an extended holiday, being back in the class meeting your beautiful children has put a smile on my face! Today we welcomed three new students to 6H, Myla, Ellie and Ari. Such great additions to the class already and it was only fair to make them feel at home by playing a few 'Get to know you' games. One of them was to make a chatter box with questions that would encourage them to learn something new about their peers. See the pics below of us having a go: I feel very lucky to have this group of students before they leave OLC. We  expect big things from them all, as we know they are incredible little humans and have such great potential as the leaders of our school. Each student will need to take on greater roles and responsibilities this year in preparation for high school, enabling a smooth transition. As well as greater academic responsibilities, they will also be apart of a Ministr
