Room 4 Newsletter: Term 2, Week 8
Sunday 7th June, 2015
Welcome to Week 8.
I am away from Tuesday afternoon till Friday evening this
week to the Catholic Schools Convention in Wellington. Room 4 will continue a
fun and varied programme with their reliever who will be looking forward to
working with them I’m sure. Please keep the notes and messages coming in to
class as needed.
Upcoming dates:
*10th-12th
June – Catholic Convention, Wellington.
*Thursday
11th June – SWIMMING – Session 7, 10.10 – 11.15 am.
*Sacrament of Reconciliation – please check this Wednesday’s school
newsletter for details of the dates for Reconciliation, and for the Parent
meeting prior to that.
Homework:
Homework for the next TWO WEEKS is for the
children to publish their narrative stories and to prepare for their Poetry
Eisteddfod:
(1)
Publish
Story
A copy of your
child’s draft story will come home in their homework clear file. Please support
them to publish as much of their story as possible, and email it in to be by
June 19th. I have included in their homework a Narrative Writing
Criteria Page for them to check off as they go. Email markelleward@stgerards.school.nz
(2)
Poetry
Eisteddfod:
We are reading lots
of poems and verse in class at the moment to get us ready for Poetry
Eisteddfod. Please also use some homework time to support your child’s choice
of poem, and follow the Poetry Eisteddfod Criteria Page for guidelines. The term is going by fast so
it is a good idea to get this organised now.
There will not be a Homework Calendar
during these two weeks but there will be extra maths, reading and spelling
sheets available for those who have indicated they want them.
Sacramental Programme:
Liturgy sessions for Reconciliation
children will continue at this Sunday’s 9 am Mass J .
Ride back from Dunedin?
If anyone is coming back from Dunedin this
Sunday 14th June and has a spare seat in their car, please let me
know as soon as possible. We need to get Nadine back for her 21st
birthday cake by about mid-afternoon, and the bus appears to be booked out!
Thanks J .
Reports
I am making my way through the Year 4
reports which are now being forwarded on to Mrs Eastwood for Principals
comments and signature. You should receive these reports by the last week of
term. Parent-teacher interviews are
being set up for Week 2 of Term 3.
Have a great week.
Regards, Markelle Ward J
