Term Four: Monday 6 December - Friday 10 December 2021:

Week 8: Only two weeks to go. This will be my last blog for the year and forever. Seems a sad day to say it but after so many years in Kiwi I am disappointed to be leaving. I have taught a lot of great kids in this room and will miss their fun and humour, and their love of learning as they grow to leave our lovely little school to head into the big world. I hope they all still visit me in Kea as I love catching up with their stories and adventures.

We will have our secret Santa BUT NO shared lunch on Thursday the last week of school. 16th December. We will be watching the video of our Pantomime with the whole school on this day and, the PTA are supplying a sausage sizzle and LJ Hookers an iceblock.

See below (or on facebook) for softball draws for this week.

Panto will most likely run all week in the mornings. We plan on holding the videoing on Friday with Adrian and Clare helping out with this. Adrian is going to make the call as to whether this is held at school or in the hall. Because we have no lighting in the hall this year, there may not be enough to video it well enough. On Thursday night, Year 8's have their graduation and they will perform the Panto for their parents which I am so pleased we can. It is possible that parents may need to show their vaccination passes if they want to come and watch. Steph will be letting you know if this is the case.

As we continue under Level 2, we are urging parents not to come on site. If you have to, you must sign in at the office, or with your phone and it is important that you wear a mask. Your child/ren can be collected at each exit area. If you need to see me, please ring for an appointment.

REQUIREMENTS: To finish all work on the Learning Zone. Those who find it difficult to complete all, MUST at least finish punctuation, spelling, maths and reading.

Students should be working through their Spirit of Clyde as it has to be in to Miss L by next Monday (29 November).

There are some extra activities on Seesaw, Prodigy, Studyladder and Mathletics.

I will continue to tick you off in my BIG BLACK BOOK......
