What’s happening in Year 6

6CORE3

At the start of Term 2, Year 6 students have been focusing on the concept of time in their mathematics lessons. They have been practicing how to tell time using analogue clocks and converting these times to the 24-hour format. In one engaging activity, students were given a specific time to display on an analogue clock and then convert it to 24-hour time. This hands-on activity was not only enjoyable and engaging but also allowed students to apply their understanding of time to real-life scenarios.

Mathematics in Ms Milicic’s class involved a scavenger hunt related to 12- and 24-hour Time.  Students had to read the time, find the clues which were in 24-hour time and then use the letter of the answer to decode the final puzzle. A fast, fun-filled paced activity.

Each morning during homeroom, the students take turns to lead us in prayer. We focus on the prayer of the day and reflect on how we can apply Jesus’ teachings to our everyday lives. This is a wonderful way we can begin our day with love in our hearts and the mindset to always try our best, speak kind words and display thoughtful actions each day.
