Christmas activity

Enjoy these photos of an activity with our buddies this afternoon. 

Dance Party and Class Party

Our Dance Party is on Tuesday morning December 11th. Thank you for returning permission slips. All tickets have been issued that were requested. 

Children are invited to wear party clothes for the whole day on Tuesday. Please keep in mind that the children have a sports class in the afternoon so they will need appropriate footwear to play sport. They may bring a change of footwear if they would like to wear party shoes for the morning. 

Just a reminder about our Class Party.

To celebrate the end of year together, we will have a class party on Wednesday, December 12th. This party will be our lunch for the day, so I encourage everyone to bring one small plate of healthy food to share.

Holidays

I can’t believe that two years have passed since most of us began a journey together in your child’s learning. It’s been a fantastic period of my teaching career. I am so proud of what your children have achieved during this time. Everyone has worked very hard to accomplish their personal best. I couldn’t have asked for more from them. I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know the children and your families over our time together.

I appreciate the support I have received from you as parents. It has been most beneficial for the children that we work together to achieve goals for them.

Summer holidays can be long when children are bored, so I encourage you to make sure they have plenty of books to read. Maybe a trip to the local library would be fun. Keep enjoying Literacy Pro until it gets switched off.

I know that many of you take special outings or even a holiday over the summer. It would be great practice for the children to write about their experiences. Maybe they could purchase a cheap exercise book that they can cover and decorate. I encourage them to use complex sentences and lots of different types of figurative language in their writing, remembering to provide all the details of the experience. The children always re-read and edit their own writing.

They might like to allocate the back of the exercise book to maths practice. Some ideas include times tables practise, addition and subtraction with regrouping, drawing maps, time and money challenges and some fractions practise.

The children will still have access to Studyladder if they would like to do some activities online.

Holidays are always filled with great memories so I wish you all a very special and safe holiday period. I will miss you all very much and hope that you will say hello to me when we pass each other as school resumes in 2019.

All my love and best wishes

Mrs Harders
