At today's assembly Bree received a certificate.
Ka pai, Bree, we are proud of you.



Samuel was presented with his Gold Mathletics Certificate. Ka pai, Samuel, keep up the good work.






Thank you for your support with getting the children to school this morning. I am very proud of the way they behaved in church, showing respect and reverence. 
The Knowlegde-a-thon packs were sent home today. Learning the answers will be homework for next week. Please help your child to get sponsorships and to learn the answers. We will also work on this in class. All money raised will directly benefit your child. If you have any questions about this, please email me.
Have a great weekend.

Term 3 Week 1

Welcome back to school. It was great to see everyone this morning and to catch up on the holiday activities.

We had several things to celebrate:

Congratulations to Declan, Samantha and Bridget for gaining your Gold Mathletics Certificates. This is an awesome achievement as it shows perseverance and determination. Ka pai, keep up the good work.




On Saturday Trinity turned 7. We sang 'Happy Birthday' and wished her all the best for the coming year.






On Thursday we will be having a 'Hockey Festival'. We will join with three other junior rooms to play a round robin of games. Please bring sports shoes and (girls) shorts to change into. This will finish off our hockey sessions.

Our topic this term is Flight. We will be focusing on man-made flight rather than natural flight. If you have any relevant items that you are happy for us to have in the class, please send them along.

Remember to keep learning the Essential Lists spelling words - the big test will be next week.
