da Vinci<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We are incredibly proud of our Year 6 Da Vinci Decathlon team who competed against 78 other schools from NSW across the Catholic, Independent and Selective school sectors. The team undertook challenges across 10 disciplines: engineering, mathematics and chess, code breaking, art and poetry, science, English, ideation, creative producers, cartography and legacy. The Decathlon competition places a particular emphasis on higher order thinking skills, problem solving and creativity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pi Maths<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Each week students from Gioia House take part in Pi Maths classes where they form smaller groups to focus on the working mathematically skills of communicating, reasoning, justifying and applying. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Australian Problem Solving Mathematical Olympiad organisation regularly updates the Problem of the Week<\/a> website with problems across all levels of skills. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
