Week 8 Chapel Mass- 3/4 Yellow (Families Welcome) 

Caritas 'Project Compassion' fundraising

Well done, St Pat's students! Over the last few months, through our Easter Raffle and Icy pole Friday sales, we have managed to raise $520 for Caritas. Thankyou to our Mini Vinnies members and Social Justice leaders who have lead these initiatives. 

Writing at St Pat's

At St Pat's, we teach a range of writing strategies using resources from 'The Writing Revolution' (TWR). TWR instruction starts at sentence level, moving through to multiple paragraph level, while developing skills that emphasise quality over quantity of writing. As a new way of assessing student's writing, we have introduced a program called 'Brightpath'. This writing assessment platform enables teachers to see where each student is at in their writing progress and set learning goals targeting specific areas of need. Students in 3/4 enjoyed practising their typing skills as they entered their narratives into the 'Brightpath' program.
