"Brimful of imagery - alliterations, assonance, power verbs and nouns, as well as various changes of mood" is how our Principal, Mr Graham Anderson, described the book written by Year 2, which is dedicated to much-loved Australian author, Alison Lester. Mr Anderson visited the classroom to read Year 2 their own 'Imagine' story and we think it was the perfect conclusion to our term - a term that was themed with our School Value of Hope.

On Monday, our team of hard working Year 5 and 6 students completed the Write a Book In A Day challenge, where they composed, illustrated, edited and published a short novel in 12 hours. It was a fun, challenging and active day with excellent teamwork and a level of commitment and energy that carried us through right to the end. We even managed to finish with half an hour to spare allowing us to enjoy reading the book, The Curse of the Clock, together.

As well as the writing challenge, Arden raised $4360 for Kids Cancer Project, and is currently ranked the top team in Australia!

Congratulations to Oscar Grujic, Jasper Swanson, Johanna Brown, Nathan Ting, Jaylen Nicotra, Abi Kim, Scarlett Duddle, Elizabeth Kwok, Thea Davis, and Stephanie Parker on their terrific effort and focused fund raising.
