Smithfield West Public School

Today, we proudly celebrated our Australian Socceroos with a very special Green and Gold Day! Students and staff showed their support by wearing Australia's national colours and joining in the excitement as we cheered on our national team. It was wonderful to see our school community come together to celebrate teamwork, sportsmanship, and Aussie pride. Go Socceroos! 💚💛⚽

This term, the Penguins enjoyed an exciting visit to the zoo, where they explored a variety of animals and learnt fascinating facts about their habitats and behaviours. Back in the classroom, they showcased their creativity through artwork and imaginative Lego constructions, developing their problem-solving skills while bringing their ideas to life. It has been a wonderful term filled with learning, discovery and creativity.

Kindergarten had a wonderful visit to the farm the other day, enjoying a truly hands-on learning experience on a beautiful sunny day. The students loved getting up close with farm life, with highlights including milking the cows and experiencing an exciting tractor ride around the property. It was a fun and engaging day that helped bring their learning to life through real-world experiences and plenty of smiles.

Our Stage 3 students finished off their visit to Canberra yesterday with a trip to Cockington Green Gardens. Students enjoyed exploring the beautiful miniature gardens and displays, and even had a fun ride on the train!

Our students arrived back at school at 6pm last night after a fantastic two days filled with unforgettable experiences and memory-making in Canberra. We are so thrilled to see so many of our Stage 3 students back at school today, ready to resume their lessons as normal! What an amazing experience it was for everyone involved!
