Week 2 Term 4

A few snaps from our week....

Next week...
During literacy we will be working on using capital letters and full stops.
At maths time our focus remains on basic facts.

On Tuesday 13^th of December the Kowhai teachers have planned a fabulous action packed ‘Big Day Out’ at Founders Park to celebrate the end of another successful year. The children and teachers will leave school on buses to Founders Park at 9.45am and will return at 1.30pm approximately. Parents, pre-schoolers and caregivers are to meet us at the front entrance or the field behind the café for 10am. We have arranged a train ride and a range of rotational activities for the day. The cost of the day will be $6 per child. However if you have pre-schoolers attending there will be a small charge of $2.50 for the train ride. We would very much appreciate some parent helpers to assist at the various activities while at the park. When we arrive back at school we have booked out the school swimming pool for the afternoon to cool down! School will finish at the normal time of 3pm.

Have a happy and safe short week!

Week 1 Term 4

Welcome back to Term 4! 

We have an action packed nine and a half weeks to end the year.
As I reflect over the year I feel so immensely proud of the children for the challenges they have overcome, their learning and development and their forever sense of fun. It warms my heart to hear the best part of their day is being with their friends. Not to mention the strength and laughter they have given me which I am very appreciative of!

Here are a few snaps of our week...
