Hi

Looking forward to seeing everyones happy smiling faces tomorrow!!!

Hope everyone had a super holiday and is ready for learning, winter sports and fun times!!
This term we have 4 netball lessons over the next 2 weeks and then a school wide tournament on Monday May 14th in the afternoon at the netball courts. From Wednesday which is our first lesson (we have 2 lessons on one day) then next week on Monday and Wednesday children can wear their sports uniform.

Please bring any boxes for action stations or any thing that could be made into amazing creations!!

This term thanks to Stefan and his family being winners at New World we get an apple a day for each child for the term!! This should sort brainfood if your child likes apples!! Awesome!!!!

This Sunday is the first week of Funsticks hockey on Sunday and will be in Alex at 1pm. Children are welcome to attend practice on Friday from 3.30-4pm.

Have a great week

Take care

Week 10

I imagine you are all feeling well rested after a nice Easter break. Today I had a close encounter with a red back spider and be fair to say I was not that happy to see her so close to my head!!!!

Eisteddfod - Next week the children will be presenting their Eisteddfod Prayers.  I will give everyone a short prayer tomorrow. If you would like you can pick one yourself. Please have these ready to be presented by Tuesday next week so that we are able to sort those children who will read theirs in front of the school next Thursday.

Goal Setting Interviews - Hopefully you have all slotted yourselves in with a time to see me next week.  These interviews are a nice time for us all to have a chat about your child's learning so far and their next steps at school.

Children are really progressing well with their sight words and this is a credit to the work children are doing at home. Remember 5 ticks and then I check these every Friday.

Please come and talk to me if you have any questions about the prayer reading I am happy to help.

Have a great short week.
