We welcomed our families for a special Education Week. Families enjoyed a fun play session followed by a picnic lunch together. A highlight was the recycling family projects brought in, reinforcing our shared commitment to caring for our env. @LansvalePS

This year Lansvale Public School named their classes after people who went to a Public School. Year 4 got me. Apologies Year 6 that it was me visiting today not Chris Hemsworth 😂

We were thrilled to welcome the Federal Minister for Education @JasonClareMP to our preschool! Our young learners showcased their innovative ideas on how to protect the environment before performing “I am Australian” for Mr Clare. @LansvalePS

In Science, 4 Watts have been learning about states of matter. We investigated how solids can have different properties by looking closely at biscuits 🍪 @LansvalePS

Not many people can get @LansvalePS staff to do long division after school! 😂 Thanks @DaveMorkunas for sharing your insights and importance of Daily Review. “You can’t afford not to.”

A great document from @GrattanInst which clearly outlines how to implement great maths teaching in schools. This follows the Maths Guarantee article released earlier this year. Very timely as we refine our Maths practices at @LansvalePS grattan.edu.au/wp-content/up…

Privileged to visit Singapore, one of the best education systems in the world as part of the @AusSchoolsPlus Teaching Fellowship. They have such clarity on the purpose of education to develop successful citizens and invest heavily in people as they have no natural resources.
