Assistant Principal's Report

Friday Maths Fun

See if  you can work out the secret code.

Ms M has put together a maths quiz for you!

Some of the students did it today!

 

Write  a  three digit number.

 

The  first and third digits  must differ by more  than one.

Example 264

 

Now reverse  the digits to form  a second number.

Example 462

 

Subtract  the smaller number from the  larger   one.

Example 462-264=198

 

Now reverse  the digits in the answer and add to that  number.

Example 891+198=1089

 

Multiply the number by one  million.

Example  1089x1000000=1089000000

 

Subtract 733,361,573.

Example 1089000000-733361573=355638427

 

 

 

Magic Code

Under  each  digit in your answer, write the letter that  corresponds. Look carefully, it could be jumbled or backwards!

 

0 - Y

1  - M

2 - P

3 - L

4 - R

5 - O

6 - F

7 - A

8 - I

9  - B

 

 

HOT OFF THE PRESS!

 

Mrs Bailey has just had word from Tread Lightly that ACPS has won the Victorian Award for the most shoes donated!

 

We have counted over 1100 shoes which will now be recycled into basketball courts, playgrounds as well as the laces and metal parts being recycled for other uses.

 

Congratulations to all our ACPS families on such a great achievement. 

Well done to all our Prep students who took out the class award for donating the most shoes!!!

 

Together - we can do great things.

Well done Sarah and all the green thumbs on this great initiative!
