3/4B
Mr Brendan and Ms Ashleigh
Maths
The Year 4 students have hit the ground running with our latest Mathematics unit on Length, Area, and Perimeter. This fortnight is all about practical, hands-on learning! Instead of just working in grid books, the students are actively exploring the classroom and school grounds to estimate, measure, and compare. They are busy calculating the distance around shapes (perimeter) and the flat space inside them (area) using formal metric units.
Education in Faith
In the lead-up to the Sacrament of First Holy Communion, our classroom discussions have focused on the Sacraments of Initiation (Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist). We have been learning that 'initiation' simply means entry or welcome; these three unique sacraments act as the building blocks that fully welcome us into the Church community and strengthen our lifelong faith journey.
Our Eucharist candidates will attend Reconciliation as part of their spiritual preparation on Tuesday 16th June between 12:00 - 1:00 pm.
A friendly reminder to our families of the upcoming First Holy Communion Mass details:
- Date: Sunday 21st June
- Time: 10:30 AM
Location: St. Francis Xavier Church
Please keep our Year 4 candidates and their families in your prayers during this special time of preparation!
