Maths peer tutoring
This week, we had students teaching others about trigonometry, Pythagoras theorem and how to calculate the volume of a sphere. We'll be doing a lot more peer tutoring next term. It's so cool to watch our students grow in confidence as leaders, teachers and collaborators.

Book Review - Divergent
Beatrice Prior, a 16 year
who has an aptitude for not one, but three factions. She is special. She is
'Divergent'. However, it's not safe to be Divergent and
Beatrice must hide it what she is, as there are dark forces and people at work,
who will stop at nothing to protect the secret that her original faction hides.
Beatrice commences on a captivating journey to reveal the secret kept from the
factions, protect herself from those who threaten to harm her for her
divergence, and discover what lies outside the chain link fence… Divergent is
an exciting book and it pulls you in.
