"For them to see my own future and light when I couldn’t, I will never be able to repay them".

Creating paper weaves in maths. We represented the colours in our paper weave in fraction, decimal and percentage form.A fun hands on learning activity for them to apply skills of the 4 operations and see the connection between fractions, decimals and percentages! @AitkenCreekPS

6F enjoyed the sunshine during maths today. We played a new fractions game called pattern blocks and it was great to see their understanding of adding fractions with related denominators 👏☀️ @AitkenCreekPS

6F and 6B students were all engaged in their writing today, they've been working on their multi genre unit, creating a range of writing pieces that reflect a topic of their choice 📝 @AitkenCreekPS

@TCEA @CurriculumAssoc @mrsvavala some great math talk stems here 👌

[R U OK? @ruokanyday]

Small acts of kindness make a big difference.

It might be connecting with a friend you haven't spoken to in a while, offering practical help to a neighbour, complimenting a colleague on a job well done or simply showing someone you care by asking "are you OK?".

[R U OK? @ruokanyday]

“Connecting with others is such a great wellbeing strategy.

When we’re connecting we’re sharing the mental and emotional load, and we don’t feel like we’re in it alone.

Our ability to respond to stressors changes because we’ve got our support crew, people who have our back.”

[R U OK? @ruokanyday]

We all need a helping hand from time to time.

This weekend reach out to the people in your world and ask, "are you OK?". Because your conversation could change a life.
