Probability jokes that are actually funny? Not a chance!
Year Six have been working hard on Probability this past week, focussing on Chance. They have designed and conducted chance experiments with small number trials (surface learning) and used these results to make predictions (deeper learning) about what results might look like for a larger quantity.
They have also had to transfer their knowledge of fractions, decimals and percentages to describe the probability of outcomes in chance experiments.
The children really enjoyed the hands on investigations and using their previous knowledge of fractions to help them promote their problem solving skills.

Today we celebrated Mass with our school and parish community in honour of our mothers and the special women in our lives. We gave thanks for their love, strength, and guidance. We remembered Mary, our Heavenly mother, as a model of grace and faith. May all mothers feel the love and appreciation they so deeply deserve—not just today, but always. 💐🙏

May the gift of His love fill your hearts and homes this Christmas season. As we reflect on Mary's faith and courage, may her example inspire us to trust in God’s plan and share His love with those around us. Let us carry the spirit of Christmas into our lives, bringing kindness and compassion to all we meet. Wishing you a blessed Christmas and a joyful New Year!

🩵💙 Today, we celebrated the feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary into Heaven. At Mary Immaculate, we are a Marian School, meaning “Mary school”. We have a special love for Mary and try to follow her good example every day. God took Mary to Heaven because she was very special. She had a strong faith, was a loving wife, and most importantly, the mother of Jesus. Mary shows us how to be proud of our faith, how to pray, and how to trust in God’s plan for us 🩵💙![18043027939770833-1]()

🌟 Today is a truly special day as we celebrate the feast of Mary MacKillop, Australia’s first saint! 🌟 Mary MacKillop exemplified unwavering trust in God, even in the face of challenges. She knew, just as Jesus teaches us in the Gospel, that worrying doesn’t add a single hour to our lives. Instead, she trusted in God’s love and care, a trust that we are all called to embrace. In honor of Mary MacKillop, we gathered for our Para Liturgy and took a moment to recognize students who, like her, show remarkable faith and compassion. These young leaders use the example of Jesus to make a difference and help others in their journey. Let’s continue to follow Mary MacKillop’s inspiring example and trust in God’s guidance as we strive to make a positive impact in our own communities. 🙏❤️

🌸 💙 💙May is the Month of Mary 💙 💙🌸 As the mother of Jesus, Mary lived a life of deep trust, courage, and love — not without questions or challenges. At Mary Immaculate, we honour her not just as a holy figure, but as a woman of faith who made space for mystery, responded with strength, and walked with Jesus all the way. 🙏✨
