Dear wonderful, St Andrew's Community. This is just a reminder that tomorrow is a 'Day of Difference' to celebrate Catholic Schools week!๐ The theme of the Jubilee year is, 'Pilgrims of Hope'. The colour of hope is green ๐๐๐๐๐ and all students are invited to wear this colour. You are invited to attend our 'Catholic Schools Week' Liturgy at 9:00am, following the morning assembly. Throughout the day students will participate in a variety of activities around the theme of hope and faith. In addition, teachers (from each grade) will also be selecting kid's work completed on the day to be displayed onto our school's community board in the COLA; to showcase that at St Andrew's Primary are a community focused on peace, hope and joy. We hope to see you at the liturgy! โบ๏ธ

Check out the mathematics fun taking place in Year 5. Students worked in teams to solve a math mystery. ๐ง It was a session of collaborative learning where each child had to apply a range of strategies and concepts learnt during their math lessons in the areas of- place value, rounding, addition, subtraction and multiplication. Each team had to work out a series of clues to crack the code of the anti-hero causing chaos in Math-hatten. It was amazing to see our students being curious ๐คฉ & engaged in solving problems in a creative context. #WelovemathinYear 5๐
