Showcasing Learning at St Anthony’s

Over the past few weeks, we have had the privilege of celebrating the incredible learning journeys of our students in a variety of enriching ways.

Our Year 6 Market Stalls were absolutely buzzing with excitement and pride. Students embraced the challenge of running their own stalls, applying their learning in a fun and very real-world way. It was wonderful to see them confidently explain their products, share their ideas, and eagerly sell to staff and visitors. Their pride in their work was clear as they proudly showed me around their stalls.

The SACC Spectacular was another highlight. An evening filled with energy, creativity, and joy as our little performers stepped into the spotlight. Each child had their moment to shine, and the audience was treated to a celebration of talent and hard work. The atmosphere was alive with excitement, and it was truly a night to remember.

This week, our Year 4 students shared the culmination of their learning with loved ones. Families were invited to see, listen, and enjoy the wonderful achievements of the term. The pride on students’ faces as they shared their work spoke volumes about their commitment and growth.

Meanwhile, all classes are busily preparing for the upcoming Eisteddfod in Week 10. This special event brings an exciting – and sometimes nervous – energy to our school as students practise their performances. Working together as teams, they are refining their poetry, music, drama, and art pieces, ready to shine on stage. The Eisteddfod is a wonderful opportunity for our students to showcase their creativity, build confidence, and experience the joy of performing as part of a community.

As a curriculum leader in our school, it is very rewarding to see learning come to life in such meaningful ways. These events not only celebrate knowledge and skills but also highlight the joy, confidence, and engagement that authentic learning experiences bring.
