__**Holiday Home Learning**__ The term 1 holidays begin on Monday 22 April and school begins again on Monday 6th May. I hope you all have a safe, fun and well deserved break. You have ANZAC home learning to do over the 2 week break - as well as study ladder and your own reading. The home learning tasks are on the 'Home Learning' page.

__**OPEN MORNING**__ On Tuesday 9th April between 9-10am, Willowbank School will be having an 'open morning' where you are invited to come and see your child's learning. They will be able to share their achievements and goals with you and things they are proud of. We can't wait to see you! Thanks Mrs Bowden __​__ __**Science Learning -**__ We've been learning about air resistance and how it affects how quickly and slowly objects fall. We've learned that a small object has to fight less air resistance as it falls so it falls more quickly than a big object.
