The Maths Show– 18 November 2024
When you think of stage shows – you might not think of mathematics!
The Maths show is a live stage performance like no other. The show is full of mathematical magic, history and puzzles designed to entertain and engage students while substantially increasing their interest in mathematics.
The Maths show will be visiting CCS on the 18 November, performing separate shows for years 5/6 and 7.
There is no cost associated with attending this event.
Jump Rope for Heart
Jump Rope for Heart kicks off this term at Casino Christian School!
Jump Rope for Heart is the Heart Foundation’s primary school skipping challenge that helps kids move more, have fun, and raise funds for life-saving research and programs.
This year we’ve got an audacious goal to see our student Heart Heroes at CCS to log 40 hours of skipping throughout the program!
Register your child online, so they can receive the full benefits of the program and participate in online fundraising, simply follow the link below to get started. www.jumprope.org.au/parents
Students will be skipping throughout the term in PE lessons during lunch and recess break, and during class breaks. Throughout this time you can share their online fundraising page with family and friends to help raise money for this great cause.
We will hold our school Jump Off Day on November 29. This will mark the end of the program and is a chance for everyone to come together to skip and show off their newly learned skills.
Thank you for supporting the Jump Rope for Heart program!

Paint Ball Excursion – PASS & Senior Students Year 9 to Year 11
Friday 22 nd November, 2024 (9.00am to 2.45pm)
On Friday 22 nd November, 2024 the PASS Class will be travelling to Ballina to experience Paintball. The aim of this activity is for students to participate in a number of high energy games that cannot normally be
experienced in regular school hours. Mr McPherson, Mr Boland and Mrs Bryant will be participating and supervising the students for this excursion.
Even though this is a PASS & Senior Students elective excursion, students from Year 9 and Year 10 have been invited to attend because we have space for up to 35 students. This means that the first 35 students to return their
note and payment will be able to attend this excursion.
To participate in this excursion you must complete the permission note and return it TO THE OFFICE with your money ($95) by Friday 15th November, 2024. The Presbyterian Church requires the attached ‘risk warning’ form to be signed for any activity out of the ordinary. It is a standard form that would be used for anything from sky diving to horse riding and has not been written particularly for paintball.
