Congratulations to Primary 6 on producing a wonderful assembly. They shared their learning from their mini-topic on Africa and explored resilience. They also reminded us of our school vision and values through song, dance and poetry! Well done Primary 6!
What a fabulous response to Maths week! Sumdog Challenge, Beeetledrive, Newspaper challenge and lots more was rounded off today with a dress down on a maths/number theme. We took the opportunity to “show off” our Maths Hat creations. Many thanks to everyone who made that extra effort. We “count on” your support!
The challenge began by exploring Tessellating Patterns and discovering that they could be made by one or more shapes creating a regular pattern. Then to try to recreate this in your group using the materials provided. An additional challenge was given in the last 5 minutes to see if each group could create a tall structure! Well done Primary 6 some great team work was obvious.
