Term 4, 2014 overview

Welcome back to school for our last term of the year 

All the children in Room 1 had a good rest over the holidays after our busy time with the school production last term.  Everyone has arrived back at school refreshed and eager to learn for our final term of the year. Our learning overview for this term is as follows:


Some reminders: 

Technology: Please help your child to collect clean waste materials such as plastic bottles and packaging to reuse for our technology project. Bring them to school in a named plastic bag. Any extra clean waste materials can be shared. There is a green box to put them into near the sink in Room 1.

Speeches: A letter will be sent home soon with information about writing a short speech (2 minutes) to present to the class. Please support your child with deciding on a subject for their speech. A topic they feel passionate about and have some knowledge of is a best. They will need to find information relating to this topic both at home and at school, in order to write an interesting speech.


Pohutukawa Sports: Please ensure your child is wearing suitable shoes for our athletic sports rotation on Fridays and for practising sprint running on other days.

Swimming: The pool is open and we will begin swimming a little later in the term when the weather is warmer.

Library Day: Monday    Swimming Day: To be advised
