Hi everyone,
Thank you to all those who
attended School Mass this morning, and to those who participated in their
various roles. Well done.
What a whirlwind end of
term it will be. Keep up the good work.
Important Dates:
*Ice skating – Monday and Wednesday 10 - 11 am.
I haven’t had many communications re cars for these two days so please let me
know first thing Monday morning and Wednesday morning if you are available to
help with a car. The children will be ready to go by 9.30 am as it takes quite
a while to get their skates on. Please remember it is now compulsory to wear
gloves and helmets.
* Eisteddfod Poems – in
class Monday and Tuesday. School Eisteddfods Thursday at 2 pm.
*Swimming: Tuesday and
Friday. Everyone is making a noticeable improvement in their swimming – well
done.
*Thursday evening 29th
June, 7 pm, Sacrament of Reconciliation
in the Church followed by a light supper.
Year 3/4 Camp:
We are very fortunate that
so many of you are available to come to camp – thank you so much for your
support. At this stage there will comfortably be enough parents to fill our
ratio of 1 adult to 3 children. We cannot, however, make a final decision about
this until I have heard from everyone.
For the Room 4 children who
have not returned their camp form, I have emailed these families this afternoon
(Sunday). It would be great to have final confirmation of your intentions, whether
you are happy not to come, or reasons why you would particularly like to
come. This is so we can best meet all the childrens’ needs, and respect your
wishes too.
Poetry
Eisteddfod
The children will present
their poetry eisteddfods in class between Monday and Tuesday this week. The
Eisteddfod Assembly will be on Thursday at 2 pm. Well done for all your
preparation.
Homework and Book Return
There will NOT be any
homework going home this week, including reading books. I am hoping to get ALL
books back in – whether it be reading books, journals, or library books.
Please make a big effort this week to ensure that all books are returned to
school – each one is precious and needs to be accounted for. Homework clearfiles
can remain at school.
Congratulations to
everyone for huge commitment to homework tasks and reading at home, and to an
equally solid effort on classwork. I have been very impressed and you deserve a
break. However, there’s a lot of fun stuff to read out there during the school
holidays, so gather it up and bring it to school with you next term if you
think you would like to share it.
Have a great week and a
very safe time over the school holidays.
Regards, Markelle Ward. J
