These past two weeks in the Senior Learning Hub have been super busy. Students have been showing they have a deep understanding of why we need to have communities. They have seats listed that if we didn’t, we would lose support networks, have many different interests that other don’t have and most important as a believer in a Catholic community that we could lose our faith. We know that having a common belief system allows us to come together to share our understanding about God, Jesus, Mary and Joseph. 

In our Math lessons we are consolidating our understanding of multiples, factors, prime and composite numbers as well as square amd triangular numbers. These have tested our brain power and patience when we are cross checking to ensure it fits into the right categories of numbers. We have tapped into the use of our learning walls and other hands on resources.  

Our ability to read quickly and accurately over the past week with students practicing their rate of words per minute on a piece of text. Students are familiar with their previous rate and are working on improving this over the week. We have also been working on building our planning ideas for narratives. When we plan well, we can focus on creating engaging sentences for our readers.  

The Yr6 students did a wonderful job helping hand out pancakes to the entire school on Shrove Tuesday. Their responsible leadership skills shined through. Next week our Opening Mass will see both our Yr5 and Yr6 students step up and represent our school in a reverant way.
