Miss Ramsden’s Report

We’ve had another great couple of weeks at our fantastic school!
Work Placements
This semester, Pre-Service Teachers from ECU will be undertaking their professional practice in some of our classrooms. We also have some training Education Assistants and high school students joining us for their work placements. Please speak to your child’s classroom teacher if you have any questions.
Numero!
At our Curriculum Meeting in Week 4, staff were introduced to an educational maths game known as Numero! The session certainly got our brains ticking on a Wednesday afternoon, and it was very clear to see which staff members have a competitive streak!
“Numero is more than just a card game. It is an invaluable resource for maths educators. Numero has been designed for use by students of all ages, and assists in developing understanding of numeracy concepts and problem-solving skills. A focused Numero program can significantly boost children's mental maths abilities, help improve achievement in mental computation testing, and encourage tactical thinking and thinking 'outside the box'.”
A huge thank you to our Maths Curriculum Leader, Miss Robinson for organising the afternoon and purchasing some Numero cards for the school. We can’t wait to get our students (and staff) playing!
