Sea Mythology

This will lead to investigating the ways in which humans utilize the ocean and how to best achieve a balance to ensure the future sustainability of our seas.
The culmination of this will be a school assembly where students will perform an assembly item with a sea theme and display their work in the library, including research, sea dioramas and reports on what they have learnt. This will also fulfill part of our committment to becoming a Waterwise accredited school. |

The School as the Sea (Term 1)
Cranbrook Primary School is engaged in participative / collaborative whole school planning. Each term will be based on a different theme or concept. The sea has been selected as the theme for first term. The teachers meet once a week for collaborative planning time.
This time has been made available through flexible timetabling in the Mount Barker cell. Initially, the teachers reviewed all the resources within the school, and selected everything that mentioned the sea or water, in any shape or form. This produced a wealth of resources,
pictures, games, photos, cartoons, books, artefacts, etc. A brainstorming session produced links with all curriculum areas. The school was converted into a ship. The windows along the verandah were painted as an underwater scene.
The school was renamed H(er) M(ajesty’s) A(ustralian) S(chool) Cranbrook”, the principal’s office became the “Captain’s Office”, the library became “the chart room” , the staffroom the “galley”, and the toilets renamed the “head”. The door into each classroom has a porthole
filled with the photos of all class members. There are four classes in the school.
The Pre-primary/Kindergarten class is looking at the sea from the point of view of the underwater environment. The year 1 and 2 class is making a comparison between fish and themselves. The year 4/5 are learning all about fish and other sea creatures, and the year 6/7s are investigating sharks. By the end of the term we intend to have explored ships, coral, maritime industry, marine life and environmental issues. The school has become a treasure trove of all things nautical. Students and community members are donating artefacts to the school. |
