Dear All

So wonderful to be back with you all, feeling great, after such a lovely holiday. Hope all is well with you and your family, also. As you know I love working with your children because they are so focused, positive, enthusiastic, curious and willing to learn.
And …… they are very kind to each other.

Term 2 sees us welcoming Cody and his family who have moved from Timaru. And WELCOME to the boys from Room 10 – Euan, Mickalos, Kerby, Inigo and Nico. I know that you all will fit in beautifully as though you have always been with us and that you will be very happy in Room 9.

You all are very welcome to visit and join in with our learning at any time. You are most welcome to have a read of my weekly timetable and the Long Term Plan. Both of these are pinned to the back wall just to the left of the whiteboard behind my desk. They will tell you what we are learning this term, each week and each day. You may like to also look through your children’s workbooks. And have a squizz at our blog – google Our Lady of Victories School, Christchurch and then find the classroom blogs. I encourage the children to take photos of any of their work – they often like to record their construction or things that may need to be packed away. Many of the photos on the blog are taken by the children and you can hear them read their reading books or their own stories.

The children are training for the cross country for the first two weeks so you may like them to bring suitable running shoes that they can change into. We will be focusing on building up stamina and distance. Room 9 children love running so I think they will run the distance without any problems.

Our inquiry unit is science based and called The Living World. It will be lots of fun and also will be integrated into many other of our curriculum subjects.

I am looking forward to the next eleven weeks and expect to see the same exciting progress in your child’s learning as we did last term.


Regards
:)
