Yr 5 were surprised with an incursion about coding! We learnt about the basics of coding and created a simple, 'Flappy Bird' style game. We learnt how to make the characters move, how to control them and how to create multiple levels.
Code Camp World provided the tutorial for the day and they were very friendly to us and told us tips and tricks which we could access at home to play around with. This hour and a half was all about coding and technology which gave us a big chunk of knowledge to take on in the future. We had so much fun and it certainly kick-started our day. We got to add coins, choose our own characters from a vast selection of weird, wild and wacky choices. We made different kinds of levels, mechanics and behind all of this was the learning and striving to code it right and nail the game to bring it to its fullest potential. We were all disappointed when it had finished until we were told we could work on it at home and continue to make, code and have fun with all our games!
We all thank the teachers very much for this exciting incursion and we hope it will happen again soon!

Year 2 has been exploring how to take care of creation, learning that our world is a gift from God and that we have a responsibility to protect and respect the environment. As part of this learning, students became eco‑artists, using recycled materials to create artworks inspired by God’s landscapes. This hands‑on project helped them think about reusing resources, reducing waste, and caring for the earth in meaningful, creative ways.

Year 1 have been busy investigating the differences between living and non‑living things, and they put their learning into action by designing and making their very own bird feeders. Students thought carefully about what birds need to survive and created feeders that would help meet those needs in our school environment. It was wonderful to see so many creative ideas come to life, and even more special to have siblings visit to see the showcase. Thank you to everyone who supported the students with ideas, equipment, encouragement, and enthusiasm!

Year 3 had a fantastic time exploring forces through their Design & Make projects this week. Students planned, tested, and created their own objects to investigate how contact and non‑contact forces affect motion, while also using scientific diagrams and data to communicate their ideas. They loved sharing their work at last week's showcase. A big thank you to all the parents who came along, your support made the learning feel even more special!!

Today we celebrated the Feast of the Annunciation. Our Primary students gathered for Mass, while our Infants students marked this special day with beautiful classroom liturgies. Together we reflected on Mary’s courageous “yes” to God- a moment of trust, openness, and faith that changed everything. It was a lovely way for our students to pause, pray, and remember the importance of saying yes to God in our own lives.
