Week 3 Newsletter


Dear Parents and Caregivers,

It’s week 3, and we are well into it as you can see by the many extra-curricular activities that are coming up:

Kiwi Can
This is a weekly session with Dom and Richie which focusses on respect. This term’s theme is “Positive Relationships”. The sessions are run in the hall and will take place on Tuesdays. 

Swimming
On Thursday and Friday we are going to the town pool from 11-12 to practice for our Senior Swimming Sports which will be on Tuesday 19th February.

Daily swimming in the school pool is going very well. There are no issues with children forgetting their togs at home this year. Well done!

Safe cycling
Keri Brown is going to take two sessions with the Senior classes. One will be a theory session tomorrow, and one will be a practical bike safety session. This coincides well with the “Go by bike” day on Wednesday.

Could children please bring a bike and a helmet to school on Wednesday. If they don’t have one, it would be great if they could borrow one from someone else.

Meet the Teachers
On Wednesday, there will be two sessions available for you to come and hear about the Senior school and Ruma Kakapo. First session is at 3.15 pm, and the second one at 7.00 pm. I look forward to seeing you then.  
 
Homework
This week we are starting spelling homework. The children need to write out their spelling words three times into their homework. Let me know if the words are too hard. It will take a bit of time to get the level right for each child.
