UPCOMING DATES:

Dear Parents,

Welcome back to school after the summer break.  I am looking forward to getting to know the children over the next few weeks as we settle into Year 2!

Please be aware that the children will be tired over the next few weeks as they settle into the new school routines and their brains are engaged in a different way.

FIRST DAY - Tuesday 22nd august

The children had a very busy first day!  It was excitement all around as they greeted their friends with a little shyness of being in a new class and environment. 

The children practiced their fine motor skills by doing handwriting movement games and working on letter size.  They then discussed what they would like their ideal class to look like and wrote a class pledge by drawing around their hands.  

We talked about the summer holidays and took pictures with the year 2 balloon!

I had a great day with the children and look forward to more of the same!


First day mindfullness work

The students listened to classical music as they worked on their fine motor skills. 

creating class rules 

The students collaborated to create ideas that will make their class a better place.  They then wrote their favourite ideas on their hands to create a class pledge!
