Tabloid Sports Session: Our proactive Grade 5s are also organising a Tabloid sports session for the entire school on December 11th, showcasing their emerging leadership skills.

Classroom Highlights

Mathematics: Grade 6 explored probability through hands-on experiments, linking it to fractions and mathematical vocabulary. Grade 5 mastered multiplication, division, and delved into angles.
English: Despite a busy schedule, our students have shown great adaptability in continuing their spelling mastery and writing programs.

Extra Activities

Swimming: Our students displayed maturity and growth in the recent swimming program, earning high praise from the Danny Frawley Centre!
Sex Education: The completion of the Sex Ed program was marked by our students' mature and informed engagement.
Basketball and Dodgeball Tournament: Both Grade 5 and 6 students participated in a basketball and dodgeball tournament, demonstrating exceptional sportsmanship and teamwork, all for a charitable cause.

We're proud of all our students' accomplishments and can't wait to see what the next year brings. Let's finish this term with the same enthusiasm and dedication we've seen throughout!

Until next time,
