Good afternoon parents,
Welcome to Week 8. Only two more weeks with your beautiful children before the wonderful Christmas holidays and then...moving onto Year Two (something I'm still not ready to admit!)
Just a few things for this week and next week:
Reading Folders
After conversing with Mrs. Kemp from the library last week, she has asked for all readers to be returned to her. The lovely Mrs. Hughes has taken the readers out of your child's folder today (if they brought it) and we are asking for any other readers to be returned if they have not done already.
Sight Words
Mrs. Hughes tested all of the children's sight words last week so your child would have received their final note home today of where they have finished in the sight word program. We have collected up the sight word sets and I will pop on here the 1-100 and 101-200 list of sight words if you would like to review them over the holidays. If you have any loose sight word sets at home, could you please return them to school this week.
Mental Maths
These were meant to go home today (so sorry, my fault!) This will be the last week for Mental Maths (unit 25 - due this Friday) and then the children may complete the book at their leisure over the holidays.
Christmas Concert and Awards Night
Please keep next Tuesday the 10th of December in your diaries for the annual OLC Christmas concert that is sure to be a hit! The children are required to be at school at 5.15 pm for a 5.30 pm start. We ask that the children come dressed in their best Christmas clothes ready for the concert.
Colour Run - Last day of school
On Friday the 15th of December, the children will participate in the first OLC Colour fun run. Information went home with the eldest child about what the day will include. If you need another sheet, please go and see Mrs. Marrell in the office.
We are asking that you child:
- Wear a white t-shirt to school with dark/old shorts and shoes that can be taken off easily, ready for the run
- Bring a towel as they will be sprayed with water at the end of the day
- Bring their best dancing moves in between stations and obstacles
Phew! I think that is it!
If you have any questions or concerns, please email me.
