Reading Time

These children were reading quietly at reading time today. We love books, especially if they are from the library.

Term 4 Newsletter

 

Room 2 Newsletter   Term 4 2015

Dear Parents and Caregivers,

Welcome back to the last term of the year. This is often the term that just flies by and Christmas is here before you know it.

Technology will be our curriculum focus this term. The whole school is looking at ways to make “Our Place” a better environment. In Room 1 and 2 we are going to target a small area that we can improve. We will be supporting the children in designing a plan for a small garden and implementing the plan. Watch this space!

This theme fits very well with The Holy Spirit strand which will be the main study in RE. We will start the term with a reflection on Mary and the Rosary as October is a month of Mary. We will conclude the school year Advent and Christmas.

The English genre that we will develop our skills in is Instructions: Giving and receiving instructions orally and in writing and reading.

Kiwi Sport will continue with a focus on Athletics. The school Sports Day will be later in the term. Check out the newsletter for dates.

There are 2 regular events in the 4^th term calendar for Room 1 and 2.  In the last week of the term we will perform a Nativity play. This year it will be at 2pm on Monday, the 14^th December. Mark that date on your calendar.

The other event is our annual visit to the A and P Show. Thank you to the parents who have volunteered to accompany us. We will send out information about the day closer to the time. This trip is subsidized by the school so each child is only required to pay $5. We would appreciate it if you could send this money to school as soon as possible.

Don’t forget to read and comment on our class blog. It is easy to find through the school website. Following St Anne’s on Facebook is also a great way to keep up with what is happening at school.

Thank you for all your support.
