MATHS IN 2024!

We have an exciting year of maths planned at Holy Name this year. We look forward to having the parents and families actively involved in the students' mathematical learning in 2024. 

MATHS WEEK

After the success of Maths Week last year, we will once again be celebrating Maths Week at Holy Name this year. There will be several fun activities for families and students to get involved in, including problem-solving fun, fluency practise, house team activities and of course the exciting Maths Dress Up day.  Start to think of your costume for the day which will be  TUESDAY 19th MARCH. 

NUMBER GOALS

This year, number goals will be used from Prep to Grade 6 at Holy Name. The goals are individualised goals based on assessments of your child's number understanding and skills.  We would love families to play an active part in the running of number goals by practising with your child every night. 

The number goals will be shared on Seesaw or in their reading diaries. The first goal will come out in the next few weeks. 

Please keep in mind that we are working on automaticity, or automatic recall of number facts. For your child to move onto their next goal they must have automatic recall of facts, not just be able to work them out. 

We look forward to working with you this year.
