Australian Mathematics Competition

Wednesday 4 August – Friday 6 August

The Australian Mathematics Competition (AMC) is an engaging 30-problem competition that demonstrates the importance and relevance of mathematics in students’ everyday lives; it is open to students in Years 3 to 12. Australia’s leading educators and academics, with a deep understanding of our national curriculum standards, actively design the unique AMC problems each year. The competition is fully online.

Held in Term 3, the AMC has two divisions applicable to primary school: Middle Primary (years 3–4) and Upper Primary (years 5–6). The cost is $6.50 per student.

If you would like your child/ren in Years 3 - 6 to participate in the competition, please complete the payment via QKR.  This will open next week.

Positive Behaviour Learning (PBL)

Congratulations to the Green Sports Colour House for achieving the most tokens in the first half of this term! Students in this sports house enjoyed a sausage sizzle for lunch on Tuesday. A special thanks to Mel Beath and Tammy Wilson who volunteered their time to cook the BBQ and serve. 

Our PBL focus this fortnight is Care for All - Care for belongings and equipment. This is a big focus area as we often have our lost property bins filled with belongings such as hats and jackets. In class students are learning strategies that will help them take responsibility for their belongings. This includes making sure their names are on items and that they develop a routine to check they have all their belongings with them. If you have an opportunity, please discuss these concepts with your children.
