STEM
We recently celebrated Maths Week here in St.Joseph’s. The children engaged with lots of Maths activities in class and each class went to the hall to take part in some Maths Stations. 3rd – 6th Class had an exciting Maths workshop with the Lifetime Lab and really enjoyed the sessions.
Well done to Tymi, Dwayne and Amelia who were the winners of our estimation jars! 🍬 We will use this money to update our Maths resources in the school.
