Throughout the year, students at Lindisfarne Primary School strive to not only do their best but to challenge themselves!  Some examples of this include how some of our students have worked tirelessly to achieve a Gold Certificate in the Mathletics program this year.  To achieve a Gold Certificate, students need to earn 1000 points within one week or by receiving four Silver Certificates to then achieve Gold.  These students should be extremely proud of their efforts.

At Lindisfarne Primary we are always looking for opportunities for our students to extend their learning.  During Term 3, students from our Grade 5 and Grade 6 were invited to participate in the Australian Mathematics Competition.  The results were outstanding! Congratulations to all that entered, in particular, Luke Potito who received a High Distinction.

Another experience offered to our Grade 5 and 6 students at the beginning of this year was the Problem Solving Competition run by the Mathematics Association of Tasmania.  Students from our school were then marked and ranked against other children across the state.  Congratulations to Luke Potito who was awarded a Merit Certificate for his efforts in this competition.
