As we start the new year, it seems only fitting that we kick it off with a new Monthly Maths Challenge! If you\u2019d like to attempt the January challenge, there is a task for Year 1&2, Year 3&4 and Year 5&6 to attempt. Good luck maths challengers! All entries for the Monthly Maths Challenge are due by Friday 29th January 2021.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Fun Weekly Dojo Challenge this week, is a drawing challenge. As we celebrate the start of a new year, can you draw something that shows a celebration? In our Dojo Challenge folder, there are some drawing tutorial videos saved which might give you some ideas. However, you can draw anything that shows CELEBRATIONS! I look forward to seeing the artistic work of our Primary students!<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We look forward to seeing as many of you as possible participating with these weekly challenges, but please do remember that all challenges are optional.
