Week 7 Term 3

Hi team,

Sorry I didn't get a post up last week. It's been a hectic time since returning from camp and last week just flew by! As I'm sure you've all heard, we had a fantastic time at camp and the children shared some of their highlights at our assembly on Friday. Another massive thank you for all of your help in getting your child ready for camp and also a huge THANKS to the parents who attended camp. You all made my job so much easier and helped make our camp Awesome!!

School Mass:
Thanks you to all those that attended this morning. It was great to see so many of you there! 

This week:
Tuesday and Wednesday - I am away on the Year 3/4 camp to the Ski Farm. Mrs Eastwood will be teaching in Room 5 for these two days.
Thursday - Inquiry afternoon - this will be the last day for our building groups to get their creations completed. We have Rippa Rugby coaching on Thursday 11.40-12.45. Sports uniforms can be worn on Thursday :)
Friday - we are having our catch up swimming session (River Safety) on Friday afternoon (1.30-2.30). Children will need pants (NOT jeans), a long sleeved top and socks to swim in as well as their togs. Sports uniforms can be worn to school on Friday too :)

Friday is also the Otago Cross Country champs in Dunedin. We have 3 Room 5 children attending and we wish them luck for their races on Friday.

Homework:
Spelling, maths and reading. Eisteddfods are fast approaching so children need to start thinking about and planning their speeches. Mrs Eastwood will be working on speech writing while she is in class so hopefully your child will be able to write their speech independently. I will send home the marking sheet with WALTS and success criteria next week.

Have a great week!

Jo
