MAV Maths Games

Recently, a group of our students took part in the MAV Maths Games at Grahamvale Primary School. Zainab, Natahlia, Alexsandra, Noah, Knox, Violette, Alex and Julie competed in a variety of maths challenges, working both in their own teams of four and in mixed groups for 1v1 problem-solving tasks.

The activities required students to think outside the box and apply creative strategies to solve problems. They competed with great respect for their opponents and showed wonderful sportsmanship throughout the day. Above all, the students had a great time, showing fantastic teamwork and determination while taking on strong competition from Grahamvale PS, Guthrie St PS and Kialla West PS.

All students represented our school with pride and should be very proud of their efforts. Well done!

Attendance

We are two students up this week for students who have had 90%+ attendance. Well done to families who have achieved this this week.

If you need support getting your children to school, please reach out and we can work together to support every child to be at school, on time, each day! Call the office or email Bron our Wellbeing leader to make an appointment- bronwyn.huggard@education.vic.gov.au
