A Lenten Coin Trail
Peace
Peace is love, love is peace
We're a happy family
Peace is when you forgive your friends and care for others.
Come on everybody!
Listen to God's word.
You can be my friend.

Shared Lunch
Room 1 & 2 Shared Lunch
Dear Parents,
On Wednesday, 14thMarch we would like to have a shared lunch to celebrate our Identity study: Kiwi Kids.
Would you please send a plate of food that reflects either our Kiwi cuisine or represents food from your cultural background. A small explanation would be appreciated, if it is not a common dish in New Zealand.
Thanks for all your support and interest during this study and a huge thanks to those who came to speak to the children.
Regards,
Marian and Cathy

Newsletter Term 1 2012
Term 1 2012 Room 2 Newsletter
Dear Parents,
Greetings and welcome to another school year. Let’s hope it is smooth sailing this year with no dramatic interruptions.
Welcome to WhunnDaa, Leroy, Tina and their families to our class.
This year there are 11 Year 3 children in this class. Those children will be receiving an additional letter explaining reading and spelling homework.
The Key Competency that we will focus on this term is Managing Self. It will be good to start the year as we mean to carry on by looking at ways that the children can be more responsible and independent. I am hoping that they will have lots of suggestions. Returning things to school – RE book, poetry book, library book, reading and notices is their responsibility and most children do a brilliant job.
Our learning for Term 1 revolves around IDENTITY. Room 1 and 2 are going to work together to discover how our different cultural backgrounds effects our daily lives and what we all share to make us Kiwi kids. We hope to take advantage of the summer weather to have some Kiwi experiences e.g. beach, fishing off the bridge, barbequing, camping, a picnic in the park. In week 7 we would like to have a shared lunch when children bring food which reflects their heritage. Around these themes we will incorporate The Arts and recounts in English.
If you can help in any way please let us know.
In Religious Education we are starting the term by exploring prayer and Our Spiritual Selves. We will integrate lent and Easter in the Jesus strand.
I am looking forward to working with you again.
