The Shacklebyrds are a Year 6 class of 60 students studying at Merrylands East Public School, Sydney, Australia. We come from many different countries, speak many different languages but are all proud Australians. We hope you enjoy our work and follow us throughout our year. The Shacklebyrds name is derived from two famous Antarctic explorers, Ernest Shackleton and Richard E. Byrd. We did this so as to recognise and champion their ambition, enthusiasm and have a go attitude.
