Newsletter for Term 2


Term 2     Newsletter    Room 2
 


 

 


Dear Parents and caregivers,

I hope you have had a wonderful holiday with your children and enjoyed the amazing weather we had most of the time. I’m looking forward to another jam-packed term. Let’s hope we all manage to stay healthy and well.

The theme for this term is CHANGE with a technology focus. We are going to be looking at the toys/characters in Toy Story 1 and construct a Buzzy Bee out of an egg carton. From there, the children will design and make their own simple toy. We will have a whole school celebration of the children’s creativity and learning. More information will follow about this in the newsletters.

The genre we will focus on for English is Instructions.

This term the Perpetual Motor Programme will be up and running again, as well as Kiwi Sport. Not only do all the children thoroughly enjoy the PMP activities, they benefit in many other ways – fitness, balance, memory, co-ordination to name a few. On behalf of you all I express a very big thank you to our parent volunteers. We could not run this programme without you.

In RE we will be concluding the Holy Spirit strand at Pentecost. On the 22nd May we will celebrate Catholic Schools Day and special events for this are planned. After that we will focus on the Church Strand.

Our Arts focus this term is Drama.

We will continue to put posts on our blog this term.
