Specialist Feature News: Indonesian

Selamat Siang, 

An exciting few weeks! Lots of maths talk in Indonesian - numbers, financial literacy and observations about number patterns.

In the photos you can see Foundation learning and practicing haggling skills. They are using Indonesian Rupiah as their currency. 3/4s are practicing their numbers from 1-20 (and even a few working up to 100!).

In the Leadership Centre, 5/6 students have written and completed a scavenger hunt, writing directional clues for around school. Did you spot any of the Wayang Kulit around the school?
