If you haven't paid your activity fee please do so this week online or in the office.
Hopefully you have all chosen an 8 line or more poem to learn ready to recite to the class next week. This weeks homework should all e about practise performing your poem using expression and a strong clear voice. If you haven't found a poem yet please come see me on Monday.
Well done to our certificate winners this week Zara and Amy
WEEK TWO
Thanks to those children and parents who have checked their stationery and replaced the lost or broken items. Please make sure you continue to check with your child.
WEEK ONE
Welcome to term 3. I hope you all had a safe and restful holiday.
Please can you check with your child that they have all the stationery that they need at school. We seem o have a lot of children without pencils, rulers, rubbers or whiteboard pens. It does affect their learning if they have to spend half of the lesson looking for a stationery item to use.
On Monday we are having a special visitor who will introduce our inquiry for the term and hopefully build some good questions and thoughts on our central idea.
We are also starting gymnastics for the first two week of of this term this is a great opportunity for children to try out new kills or practise the ones they already have.
Well done to our certificate winners this week. Zoe, Cleo and Margarita.
Monday saw Blair come and do a whole lot of science experiments with us using air. Here are some highlights.
