A rich experience at the Perth Mint!

Hmm how do I coin the phrase??

Year 6 green partnered by 6 Blue had a golden time at the Perth Mint today. The boys whet their appetite for a Gold rush in Kalgoorlie next week with a very interesting tour. They handled a $600000 gold bar, saw liquid gold being poured and viewed the largest gold coin in the world, weighing a staggering 1 tonne.

Here are a few pictures.

It's all getting a bit dramatic!

This week the boys have been busy creating their own drama presentations. Under the wise instruction of drama expert and 6 Green Parent Mrs Natalie White the class are recreating a dramatic portrayal of the historic discovery of gold in Kalgoorlie in  June 1893 by Paddy Hannan.

This is Task 3 on our Gold website, http://trinitygoldrush.weebly.com/

Its been a brilliant opportunity for some fine acting talent to be realised as well as engagement with script writing and imagination.

Stay tuned for performance dates in due course. below are some pictures of rehearsals.
