$20 Boss Market Day
Congratulations to the students from Year 5 and 6 who participated in the $20 Boss Market Day on Tuesday 29th, November.
It was a truly inspiring event that brought the whole school together to celebrate hard work, creativity, innovation and social good. The social entrepreneurships created by students far exceeded expectations, and many charities and organisations will benefit from the students' efforts.
There are many ways that family and friends have supported the students in the $20 Boss Journey.
- Thank you to the family and friends who were able to join us on the Market Day and make it such an amazing celebration.
- Thank you to the family and friends who have assisted our Year 5 and 6 students in idea development, planning, production and implementation for their businesses.
- Thank you to parents and carers for allowing your children to visit the Market Day, this greatly supported the Year 5 and 6 students and the charities chosen by each group.
Please enjoy viewing the photos of the Market Day below. Many thanks and congratulations to all involved.
Hour of Code
Our students are changing the future with an Hour of Code
We live in a world surrounded by technology and we know that whatever field our students choose to go into as adults, their ability to succeed will increasingly depend on understanding how technology works.
But only a fraction of us are learning how technology works. Only 51% of all high schools offer computer science.
That’s why our school has joined in on the largest learning events in history: The Hour of Code. During November and December students across the school have participated in coding activities with me that involve sequencing, branching, HTML, blocks and robotics. Our Hour of Code reflects our commitment that St Carthage’s is ready to teach these foundational 21st-century skills. Please enjoy viewing some of the students' experiences below.
