Some of the children competed in a tennis competition yesterday and I am happy to say that the Year Four children came second in their group and the Year Five children came second out of a staggering five groups! The children played with great skill and were gracious runners-up to Talbot Primary. They are going through to another round where they will compete against more schools – fingers crossed for another excellent result!
Well done to Sami, Connor, Iona and Rishitha in Year Four.
Well done to Adam, Jatinder, Kiran and Cydnee in Year Five.

Your homework this week is again Practice Makes Perfect.
I can solve problems mentally.
In class we are working on improving mental skills.
I have given you five more 10 minute tests to complete for homework.
Complete Test One on Friday, Test Two on Saturday, Test Three Sunday and so on. They will be marked in class on Wednesday.
Make sure you only spend ten minutes and make sure you only show jottings not written calculations, just like you do in your 20 question tests in class.
Homework is due in on Wednesday 04 May.
