Good afternoon everyone and welcome to week 4.
I can’t believe that it is week 4 already!! Time truly does fly when you are having fun. Just a few messages for this week :)
Water bottles:
As the weather gets warmer it is even more important to stay hydrated. Could you please make sure that your child has a water bottle and that it is bought into school. This is to help curve the disruption caused by people constantly wanting to leave the classroom during explicit learning time.
Mental Maths and Sight words:
We are currently on unit 21 of out Mental Maths unit. Thank you to all the parents who are giving their children instant feedback and writing in their books if their child finds a particular area difficult. This allows me to make this a focus when we do our Wednesday Mental Maths.
The children will be tested on their sight words from their 1-100 review that they completed last term. The children will be tested on no more than 15-20 and if they got less than 5 incorrect, they will be tested on their current sight word set. If you have any questions or concerns, please email me.
Mr John Hogan Healing Mass:
You may have read in the newsletter that John Hogan our groundsman has recently been diagnosed with cancer. We will be holding a whole school mass on Friday morning at Our Lady of the Southern Cross beginning at 9.30am. All parents are warmly invited to attend if you are able. Award cards and MJR awards will be given at Mass as well.
WWWFW:
It is looking to be better weather wise this week! Thank you for your support in sending in waste free lunches and coordinating bike rides and buddies! I have it on good authority that we are doing very well against all the other classes. With some great weather this week, please feel free to park in Cape Rise or the church and walk to school, every little bit helps!
