Father's Day - Through the Eyes of Year 4B
Father’s Day was incredible! We played lots of games, enjoyed great food, and had an amazing time with our dads. The day kicked off with a delicious breakfast, and our generous staff helped make the event extra special. After breakfast, we gathered for a lovely chapel service led by Mr. McMurray. The highlight of the day was when Year 4 Black and their dads built 3D marshmallow and spaghetti towers. It was so much fun—despite a few marshmallows being stolen by our siblings! The whole day flew by, but the time spent with our dads was unforgettable. This special day will be remembered for years to come.

On Father’s Day, we kicked off the morning with fun games like frisbee, tug-of-war, and rugby. The delicious smell of bacon and eggs filled the air, setting the perfect tone for the day. When the bell rang, we all gathered for a special chapel led by Mr. McMurray, with Mr. Lucas getting some of the kids involved. They had a great time holding props and dressing up in hard hats, aprons, and fluorescent jackets. After chapel, our dads came to our classrooms to see the amazing artwork and work we’d completed. In my class, we had a spaghetti and marshmallow tower challenge. The goal was to build the tallest structure with three 3D shapes. My dad and I were thrilled to win!

Father’s Day was a lot of fun! I started the morning with a delicious bacon and egg roll for breakfast, then my dad came to my classroom where we made spaghetti and marshmallow towers. After breakfast, we had a Father’s Day chapel. Mr McMurray and Mr Lucas picked some students to hold props related to dads, like joke books, and even dress up as teachers! I was glad I didn’t have to join in—I’d have been exhausted! Back in the classroom, my sister Emilia, who’s in kindergarten, helped with the tower challenge, and ate so many marshmallows! Overall, it was a fantastic Father’s Day, and I had a great time.

Father’s Day was amazing! We did so many fun things and had a great time. It all started with meeting our dads on the oval for a wonderful breakfast, kindly organised and prepared by our P and F committee and staff. After breakfast, we enjoyed a lovely chapel presented by Mr. McMurray. Then, our dads got to visit our classrooms to see all our amazing work and join in on some fun activities.
In the classroom, we started building 3D shapes and towers using spaghetti and soft marshmallows. After some fun building time, it was sadly time for our dads to go home—but not before we enjoyed the yummy marshmallows, of course! Overall, it was a fantastic day spent with our fathers!

Father’s Day was very exciting! On Friday, we went to school early and headed to the oval to play games and have breakfast with our dads. Once we were back in class, we built spaghetti and marshmallow towers. There was a competition to see who could make the tallest tower, and my group came second! The materials were tasty, even the raw spaghetti! Overall, Father’s Day was a lot of fun—and very delicious!

Father’s Day was fantastic! When my dad, brother, and I arrived at school, we were so excited for the day to start at the oval. We had a delicious bacon and egg roll, and I made my dad a coffee, which he loved. After breakfast, we played frisbee—my dad was the best! Then it was time for chapel with Mr. McMurray, and I especially enjoyed when he talked about why we love our dads. After chapel, we headed to my classroom to build spaghetti and marshmallow towers with three 3D shapes. We didn’t win, but we came second, which was great!
