I had a blast with my kids, Flynn and Isla, and after 61 weeks of being out of our home for 'earthquake repairs', we moved back in! We were only meant to be out for 20! Sigh...
Learning Programme
Our learning
programme will continue to place emphasis on the key learning areas of Reading,
Writing and Mathematics. Major units of
work will be integrated across these curriculum areas to ensure that our
students gain from deeper and more meaningful learning experiences. Other curriculum focuses include:
PE – large ball skills and sport rotations
Oral Language – Team Poetry Recital Competition
Science – Chemistry
As part of our
Science unit we have arranged a visit from Science Alive. Science Alive staff
will be coming on site on Thursday 30th of April to run a two hour
‘Chem-ystry’ session with Room 6each class. The cost of this per student is $7.50, which will be
added to the cost of your Term 2 activity fees.
We've spent a bit of time this week learning about Anzac Day. Hopefully your child has relayed this? We've spent a lot of time talking about why the soldiers who died, are remembered on the 25th of April. Anzac Day is closely linked to the war that both countries were involved in at Gallipoli, but these days Anzac Day is held to remember all Australian and New Zealand soldiers that were killed in all wars. This day is so important that it has been made a public holiday in Australia and New Zealand.
Today Maddie and Xavier were elected as our Class Chairs for Term 2 Congratulations! Both gave effective speeches to the class. They will be awesome. Our first Class Meeting will be next Thursday or Friday.
As always, please
don’t hesitate to ask if you have any questions or require any further
information.
