St Jude’s Catholic Primary School

To celebrate Maths Week, students in Years 1-6 took part in an awesome ‘World of Maths’ incursion where students worked together to solve a number of challenging maths problems. These problems covered all aspects of maths from shape and symmetry to collecting and analysing data, to measurement, mental computation and problem solving. The students were thoroughly engaged throughout the incursion as they were given the choice to choose activities that best appealed to them whilst challenging themselves along the way. Even the teachers had a go at solving some of these problems.

Students from Kindy to Year 6 had an awesome time with Australian religious songwriter and singer, Andrew Chinn! The student often sing a variety of Andrew Chinn songs during Liturgical Singing and school masses with some of our favourites being ‘The Rainbow Song’ and ‘These Hands’. Students attended short workshops throughout the day as they learnt some new songs which was later used when the whole school came together for an afternoon concert.

Students from Pre Primary to Year 6 have been working tirelessly throughout the term in preparation for our annual Edu-Dance concert. It was such an entertaining afternoon as students from across the school moved and grooved to the rhythms of their specially chosen Edu-Dance song. It was awesome to see the turnout from the many parents and friends that came to watch one of our biggest events of the year.
