Last Tuesday 27 March children in Years 2-6 competed in the Annual St Paul’s Cross Country
Due to the wet weather this day was moved from Gooden Reserve to the school grounds. We were fortunate the Mother Nature was on our side and the sun was shining. One student excelled in this event by managing to lap the other students in her event.
Congratulations to the children who have progressed to the Diocesan Cross Country in Term 2 held at Eastern Creek. These children will be competing against children from the Cumberland, Blacktown, Hills and Nepean dioceses. We look forward to hearing how you go at this event.
Running events like this encourage children to improve their cardiovascular health and with the current bad press of childhood obesity, St Paul’s encourages everyone to be actively involved. Even though this event is a school event, the children are competing against themselves and trying to achieve their own personal bests.
Thank you to all of the parents/grandparents who came along on the day to support our students. Days like this cannot be held without your support.

The year 5’s had a bit of a change of scenery for their English lesson today. After spending their writing lesson taking note of what they saw, smelt, felt and heard on our beautiful back paddock. They spent their 15 minutes of reading soaking up some well needed sun ☀️☀️

Today Mrs Henebery continued our High Potential and Gifted Enrichment Numeracy Program, providing students with greater extension and challenge through the depth, breadth and pace of instruction. This week’s learning focused on authentic financial planning, where students used Google Sheets to investigate budgeting, apply spreadsheet formulas and make informed financial decisions. Through this rich mathematical investigation, students strengthened their problem-solving, reasoning, communication and digital literacy skills while applying mathematics in a real-world context. We are so proud of the students’ enthusiasm, perseverance and willingness to embrace challenge. It was wonderful to see them collaborating, thinking critically and confidently explaining the mathematical strategies they used to solve complex problems.

Today, Mrs Sargent and Mrs Henebery held an enrichment numeracy group to provide greater extension and challenge through the depth, breadth and pace of instruction. This trial will be held over a five week period. This group will meet weekly to engage with rigorous mathematical problems and share their solutions using mathematical skills of communication, reasoning and flexibility. We are so proud of the children's enthusiasm for learning today, and their willingness to take on challenge and share solutions respectfully with each other.
