WEEK 6

Hi everyone. There are some serious interruptions this week with NAPLAN occurring for the grade sevens. Therefore, this week we will work towards completing out Geological Timelines in class. As an added part of this assessment item, you will all be required to complete a brief response to the work you have been doing on your timelines. In preparation for this, make sure you familiarise yourselves with the document we used in class to create our timelines. This is attached above. Both girls and boys will be assessed on Sunday... Good luck!!!

Mr James :)

WEEK 8

Hey all. The next three weeks will be heavily focused on the Earth and our moon, and the wider solar system. We will also be looking at moon phases and tides on our planet. The content covered in the next three weeks will go towards your science exam which will occur in WEEK 10.

All the best,


Mr James :)
