Homework and swimming

Hi Everyone,

Just a quick note to say that this week I will not be handing out any homework other than reading books that the children bring home.

Also, we are starting swimming this week until the end of the term. Our swimming times are:

Wednesdays and Fridays from 9:55-10:25am


Cheers,
Joy

Christmas activities

Dear Parents,

It is coming to that time of the year again where the children are looking forward to Christmas, maybe the adults not so much...haha!

I realise that they children are coming home with all sorts of things that we have been discussing in class and would like to assure you that I have yet to fully inform you about the happenings and you do not have to organise anything until such time.

We are planning on doing a secret Santa in Room 3, but will explain everything more fully in the letter.

I am in the process of completing the reports, which are due Monday the 25th November, so as soon as I have completed this I will place my full attention on getting some fun Christmas activities organised.

Many Thanks for your patience, it is a very busy time of the year.

Cheers,
Joy

Favourite book Fridays

Every child has their favourite book, their favourite story. So, I wanted to give them the opportunity to share their favourites with their peers this coming Friday.

Please could the book have a name somewhere in the book to avoid confusion.

Kind Regards,
Joy Kraan

Calendar art

Hi Everyone,

During the classroom open day last term, you were given out the order forms for the children's calendar art. If you would like this and have not already filled in a order form, please send one to the office with payment enclosed to either the office or to me by Friday the 18th to ensure that you will receive a calendar.

If anyone is needing a new order form, I would suggest you pop your head in the office because I don't have any spares to hand out.

Many Thanks,
Joy Kraan

Tug of war

At the end of last term we were supposed to do a school-wide tug of war, however, this didn't happen due to the weather. This term we would like to get this done, so we would love for the children to bring their house colour t-shirts to school everyday until we find a suitable fine day to do this.

Kind Regards,
Joy

Term 4

Hello everyone!

I hope that you have all enjoyed the break over the holidays and everyone has had a chance to relax. I know that I really enjoyed getting lots of things done, I have been planning for my wedding which is very exciting and I have spent loads of time baking...bliss!

Now that we are back into the last term of 2013 I am realising that there are only 10 weeks left with your wonderful children! So, I have been planning lots of fun activities coming up to christmas and there is also a class party being organised. This time is going to go so fast! I can't believe that my first year of teaching has almost come to an end.

The term will also be very busy with testing getting underway, reports being prepared and wrapping up the end of the year.

I look forward to a great last term of the year!

Kind Regards,
Joy
