“I’ve had the best day!” exclaimed one excited ‘100 year old’ St Michael’s kindy student at 3:10pm on Friday 21 August. And he was not alone - one look at the happy kindy faces said it all!
Our kindy teachers were determined to celebrate this milestone with a memorable event, and what a memorable event it was: A day filled with learning fun!
Kindy teachers and students were almost unrecognisable as they walked, [Correction: ambled, limped, hobbled…!] to class. There the children were engaged in numeracy and literacy activities involving 100. Following recess, further creative and energetic activities involving 100. Mr Buckman lit the BBQ [out of the icy wind!] and cooked over 100 sausages. After lunch, the children participated in additional activities before being photographed in the shape of 100.
Who would believe that 100 could be so exciting?!

☀️ Perimeter in the Sunshine! 📏 What a beautiful day for learning outdoors! 5 Green took their maths lesson outside, using metre rulers and chalk to explore perimeter in a hands-on way. With a challenge set to create different shapes that all had a perimeter of 8 metres, students measured, drew and labelled their designs on the playground, discovering that there’s more than one way to reach the same total! Learning + sunshine = the perfect combination! 🌿✨ #HandsOnLearning #MathsInAction #PerimeterFun #Stage3Learning #StMichaels #PrimarySchool #BaulkhamHills #CSPD #CatholicSchool #MakingMemories #ProudSchool #LearningTogether #FutureMathematicians #MathsIsFun #PrimarySchoolLife #SchoolCommunity #SchoolMemories #HandsOnLearning

🐠 Year 2 had a fin-tastic adventure last week 🐙 Last week our Year 2 students headed off to the aquarium and what an incredible day it was. The excitement on their faces as they explored the underwater world was priceless. From colourful fish to curious sharks and playful sea creatures, there was so much to see and learn. 🌊🐟 The students asked amazing questions, shared their discoveries with friends and showed such wonderful curiosity the whole day. It was learning outside the classroom at its best and definitely a trip they will be talking about for a long time. 💙 A big thank you to the staff and families who helped make the day so special. #Year2Adventures #LearningBeyondTheClassroom #ExcursionDay #PrimarySchoolLife #SchoolMemories #HandsOnLearning #UnderTheSea #CuriousLearners #StMichaels #PrimarySchool #BaulkhamHills #CSPD #CatholicSchool #HandsOnLearning #Grateful #PrimarySchoolMemories #SchoolCommunity #LearningTogether #Gratitude #MakingMemories #LittleLearners #SchoolLife #ExcursionFun #LearningOutsideTheClassroom

Big Day. Big Energy. Big Inspiration ⚡️ Our Year 6 leaders hit National Young Leaders Day today at the International Convention Centre Sydney 👏 From the moment the speakers took the stage, Catherine Laga’aia, Jess Yates, Jacqui Bell and Nick Hudson, our students were hooked 💥 Real stories, big challenges and powerful message. There was laughing, thinking, nodding along… and definitely some lightbulb moments 💡 There were also plenty of chances for the students to have a boogie 🕺🏽💃🏻 Safe to say, we’ve got a group of students coming back a little more inspired, a little more confident… and very ready to lead 🙌 We’re so proud of the way they showed up today, curious, respectful and soaking it all in 💙 #FutureLeaders #StudentVoice #LeadershipInAction #BigDreams #StMichaels #PrimarySchool #BaulkhamHills #CSPD #CatholicSchool

Catching the Wind in Kindy! 🍃 Our Kindy students have been busy getting creative as they designed and made their very own wind catchers as part of their Science unit! 🎨✨ Through hands-on exploration, they discovered how wind can move objects and bring them to life, watching their colourful creations dance and spin in the breeze 💨🌈 So much curiosity, creativity and joy all in one activity. We love seeing our youngest learners exploring the world around them! 💛 #KindyFun #HandsOnLearning #ScienceInAction #CreativeKids #LearningThroughPlay #StMichaels #PrimarySchool #BaulkhamHills #CSPD #CatholicSchool
