Congratulations to our MCS Stars Cheer Team who came first in their division at the Battle at the Beaches competition on Saturday. The girls have worked incredibly hard since Term 2 developing and rehearsing their routine and they demonstrated great skill in the competition coupled with looking fabulous in their Cheer uniforms. A big thank you goes to Miss Kiah for coaching the girls for the competition and to Mrs Ratcliffe for managing the team and supporting them throughout the year.

HRIS Chess
Congratulations to our Primary Chess Team who represented MCS at the HRIS Primary Tournament last Friday. In the first round all students won. Our teams found the second round more challenging but continued to make good progress throughout the day and the Senior Team did us proud by coming overall third in their division. Our Chess students have shown great commitment to being part of the chess team by giving up their lunch breaks to compete against other students and develop their skills. A big thank you goes to Mr Jenkins for running Chess Club each week, training the HRIS Team and supporting them on the day.

Celebrating Year 3 Learning
Term 4 is well under way and our Year 3 students have hit the ground running with incredible energy and it has been a wonderfully rewarding start to the end of the year. Here are some highlights from what our fantastic learners have been up to!
Science: Our young scientists have been exploring thermal energy. Students visited the high school food tech lab to observe heat transfer while popping corn. They then conducted an experiment using a cold spoon with a button attached. By placing the spoon in hot water, students carefully timed how long it took for heat to travel up the metal and melt the bond.

Visual Arts: Creativity has flourished as students experimented with glue and salt as mixed media to create vibrant fireworks artwork inspired by the poetry of Enid Blyton.

We have been so blessed to welcome Mrs S Jury to 3MT for the last 4 weeks as she completes her university studies to become a teacher. She has been a blessing to our classroom and school, bringing incredible energy, warmth, and dedication to our students every day. Her now-famous "Sticker Shop" has become a huge hit and the talk of the grade, motivating the children and bringing so many smiles to their learning space. Thank you Mrs Jury!
