Week 4 Newsletter

Room 8 Class Newsletter
Term 4: Week 4                 2.11.15
What a fantastic Halloween Disco we had on Friday night. It was great to see so many of the children dressed up and enjoying dancing with their friends, families and teachers. Thanks to the PTA for organising another great event.

We welcome Locky to Team Star this week. It’s great to have you join the team.

Congratulations to Josh and Onkar who received certificates in Assembly last week. Room 8 did a great job of hosting their very first assembly.

Thank you to everyone who came along to our Grandparents’ Day and Folk Dancing Display last Thursday. It was such a lovely morning in which the children, their grandparents, and for many their ‘adopted grandparents’, chatted, shared stories, drew, wrote and created together. This was topped off by a delicious morning tea, followed by the children delivering an outstanding display of the folk dances they have learned over the past weeks. Check out our class blog for some photos of Grandparents’ Day. www.room82015stalbans.blogspot.co.nz

This week we will increase our focus on Athletics as we near our Y0/1 Athletic Sports Day. Please ensure the children are wearing appropriate footwear each day (i.e. running shoes).

We resumed our in-class library sessions with ‘Jenny the Librarian’ last week. Please return your child’s library book in their reading folder by Thursday, so that another can be be issued.

Miss Young will be scheduling School Entry Assessment and Goal Setting meetings with the families of her New Entrant children this week. Please look out for the booking form on our Room 8 noticeboard and select a meeting time.

Upcoming Events:
Saturday 7 November – PTA Market Day (10am – 1pm)
The PTA are a little short on helpers for this event and would appreciate any offers of assistance. Helpers can put their names down at the office.
Friday 13 November – Show Weekend (no school)
Thursday 19 November – Y0/1 Athletic Sports Day

Have a fantastic week!

Kind regards
