BOOK WEEK
Students from Milang Campus enjoyed a week of Book Week activities, including a visit to the Strathalbyn Library, Butter Factory Book Shop and of course dressing up as their favourite book character.
This year’s theme was ‘Reading is Magic’, so we had quite a few dragons, a unicorn, Harry Potter’s etc. The students really love dressing up and particularly love it when the staff do as well!
Mount Lofty Walk
Determination. Teamwork. These two EFS school values were demonstrated this week by the Upper primary students from Milang Campus who took on the challenge of walking from Waterfall Gully to Mount Lofty Summit.
In high spirits they marvelled at the waterfalls before embarking on the climb to the top. It was gruelling in parts, but they all worked together to ensure everyone made it to the top!
After a quick lunch at the top the trip down was a lot quicker, and with students offering words of encouragement to other walkers on their way up, they returned to school exhausted, but elated. Well done to everyone!
NURRAGI TRAIL
The Junior Primary students also enjoyed a walk along the Nurragi Trail recently. It was a beautiful day and they all showed such perseverance and commitment to walking from the Milang-Finniss Road starting point all the way to the Milang Foreshore, a total of 5 kms.
They spotted some old sleepers from the old train track and also found a geocache along the way. They welcomed a nice cold ice-block on the foreshore when they arrived.
