Last week I attended an in-school coaching session put on by sport BOP. I was glad to see that I am on the right track with training for these little ones!

Week 3 term 2

What a fantastic trip to the recycle centre! We are fortunate to have been one of the first groups to go through the new educational classroom there. Thank you again to all the parents who were able to come along and help with the supervision.

 Shane, Rebecca, Kim, Mata, Viv and  Paul :-)

The children were well behaved in Mass on Friday, thanks again to the parents who were able to sit with my class.
Mata, Celia, Rebecca. I was very proud of our junior readers.

This week:

Tuesday-PE gear for MOVE IT
Wednesday-disco in the hall at lunch time. Coin donation for entry.
Thursday-teacher only day
Friday-Mufti Day to raise funds for Tara Chapman who is very ill.
Golden Time- craft

Home learning:
Readers -Monday to Friday
Poems to recite
Pictograph of their family members-( we will talk about this in maths time.)
Dance steps- I am beginning to put some steps together now so that when we have a class assembly we can perform a dance. Remind your child when they have a moment to practice.

We had a number of children miss out on Golden time last week. This was due to their behaviour in class. ( moving on the mat, not listening, disturbing others learning)
The children don't like to miss their golden time, which is the incentive for fabulous behaviour!
I am certain this week no one will miss golden time....:-)
