Rocket Maths

Over the last two weeks, I have had the absolute pleasure of teaching 5 Blue. It has made me realise how much I miss being a classroom teacher. I have really enjoyed getting to teach on a daily basis all of the programs that I have been supporting staff to implement over the last couple of years. 

One of these programs is Rocket Maths. Rocket Maths is an engaging and effective program designed to help children master basic math facts with ease and confidence. Through a series of fun, fast-paced practice activities, Rocket Math promotes fluency in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. It utilises a systematic approach, encouraging students to progress at their own pace while providing immediate feedback and positive reinforcement. 

Over the next two weeks, we have a number of visitors from other schools coming to observe how we do Rocket Math. Today, I took a visitor from Mother Teresa to watch 1 Blue and 5 Blue in Rocket Maths action. Our visitor was very impressed. 

2025 Fete Committee

I know we aren't even half way through the year yet, however I am calling for volunteers to be on the 2025 Fete Committee. Stephanie Juskevics (Kindergarten Parent) has offered to be the Fete Coordinator. Thank you Stephanie!

The Community Council has decided to structure the Fete Committee differently for 2025. We are asking for one volunteer per year group to be on the Fete Committee. A volunteer's role will be to convene one larger/a few smaller stalls for their child's year level. Each year level Fete Convenor will also support organising volunteers from that year level to volunteer on the stall/stalls they are convening. 

If you are interested in being a year level Fete Convenor, please email Stephanie at stephanieh1978@hotmail.com
