2018 Kindergarten Billycart Incursion
On Friday 16 November 2018, Kindergarten students took part in a Billycart Incursion as part of their Science and Technology unit 'On the Move'. Students took part in building their own billycarts by working in teams, determining how to make the carts safe using bolts and washers, and figuring out how to steer their billycarts through a course. A great afternoon for students and their invited families.

π Simmons Collective Challenge Day π Students from St Nicholas of Myra Primary Penrith, St Matthew's Catholic Primary, Windsor St Finbar's Primary, Glenbrook and St Monica's Primary School Richmond came together for our annual Simmons Collective Challenge Day! Students from Stages 2 and 3 pushed themselves outside their comfort zones as they tackled a range of exciting challenges involving coding, STEM activities, computational thinking and mathematical problem-solving. It was a fantastic opportunity to challenge our learning, meet new friends and work collaboratively with students from across our schools. The best part of the day was seeing the incredible support, encouragement and teamwork shown by students across all four schools. It was wonderful to see everyone cheering each other on, celebrating success and working together to overcome each challenge. What a fun and inspiring day of learning, problem-solving and collaboration!09 Sep 2026
