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!

On Friday, our Kindergarten students proudly presented their very first Whole School Assembly, and what a wonderful showcase it was!

Their performance of The Cranky Bear was a highlight of the assembly, bringing plenty of smiles and laughter to the audience with their enthusiasm and expression. We are so proud of the confidence, creativity and teamwork our Kindergarten students demonstrated as they performed in front of the whole school community. For many of them, this was their first experience presenting at a whole school event, making it an extra special milestone. A huge thank you to our Kindergarten teachers for the time, dedication, and preparation that went into making the assembly such a success, and thank you to our families who joined us to celebrate and support our students. Well done, Kindergarten!

Last week, OLA students and staff took part in our vibrant sock mufti for Catholic Mission's Socktober. It was a delight to see the school get into the spirit throughout the week, with the activities led by our Faith in Action Team during lunchtime for each year group. It is always a pleasure to see our community work together to spread the love of Christ. Thank you to all of our families who donated. Thank you for your generosity. To date, we have raised over $1,000 that will provide better educational facilities for the people of Malawi. It is wonderful to see our community helping those less fortunate!
