  • will confidently share and discuss their learning
  • will work independently, in small groups and as a whole class
  • will read at home each night.
Numeracy at Sacred Heart Catholic Primary Mt Druitt

NUMERACY

Numeracy is the foundation for mathematics, which involves reasoning and creativity that results in the solving of problems. Mathematical skills are powerful tools used for solving familiar and unfamiliar problems in our everyday lives.

At Sacred Heart, we aim to develop students' numeracy and mathematical thinking, understanding, competence, creativity, enjoyment, confidence, and appreciation, in the application of Mathematics and their engagement in lifelong learning. Our students learn to:

  • identify, describe and apply patterns and relationships
  • use the processes of questioning, reflecting, reasoning and proof

We offer a varied curriculum that is engaging and relevant!
