Please read
the school newsletter carefully every week for dates and information. Sometimes
dates can change. Our class blog also can have information about events. You
can log on to this on www.stannes102.blogspot.com.
It is easy to become a follower and to add comments so I would encourage you to
do this.
We will
complete the God Strand soon and begin learning about the sacrament of baptism.
The children will be invited to share some of their baptism photos and
certificates. Baptism is their first sacrament and we will learn why this is
such an important and lovely sacrament.
We have
begun the initial lessons for the Perpetual Motor Programme and begin in
earnest in week 3. Thank you so much to our parent volunteers. We couldn’t do
this invaluable programme without you. If you find that you are able to help us
in the future on a Wednesday afternoon or a Thursday morning, please let me
know.
I am really
pleased with how well the children are working. They are becoming more
responsible and independent. Keeping up routines at home, especially with
reading and spelling for the Year 3s and returning things to school makes a
huge contribution to their success. Thanks for all your support.
