Swimming is on this week.
I am testing again this week..almost there!

Golden time, we are having water play.

The class are using visuals to help with their writing goals. Please ask them about these. It is a strategy to have them focus on their story telling. Also to continue to self edit their work. I am pleased with some of the children's writing of late.

Thank you all also for having your child at school on time it really helps them settle for the day and start our programme uninterrupted.

There is some tummy bug going around the school, so remind your children to wash their hands well during the day to avoid any germs. 
If your child is unwell please keep them at home.

There arte some outstanding library books-please check for these.

Have a good week.
