Year 6 Lego Program

Year 6 Lego Program

Late in term 3 and early in term 4, the grade 6 students have been continuing to develop their STEM skills through participating in the Lego Engineers program. We have built made caterpillars, battle tanks, self flipping cars and a wind power plant. In addition, we have developed our coding skills by using the Wedo program on our Chromebooks to program the models to undertake different processes such as to spin faster, make a relevant sound and change colour.

Overall, our Year 6 students have thoroughly enjoyed participating in the Lego program and have learnt a lot of scientific skills and engineering knowledge that will hopefully help us with our learning as we move into secondary school.

Here are some photos of our recent Lego sessions ….

Winter School Sports (T-Ball)

Winter School Sports (T-Ball)

On Thursday 16 June, two teams were chosen to represent Holy Trinity at T-Ball against other schools in the Scoresby District at Gilbert Park.  Team A had mainly Grade 6 students and Team B had mainly Grade 5 students. Team A won all of their games (3 out of 3) against Kent Park, Scoresby and the other HT team and this meant that they will go to the next level of competition. Team B also played well winning 2 out of their 3 games against Kent Park and Scoresby and only losing to Team A.

Overall, both Holy Trinity T-Ball teams played really well and displayed the TORCH values throughout the day.

Here are a couple of photos from the day ….
