Room 4 Newsletter: Term 1, Week 6
Sunday 6th March, 2016
Thank you to the Room 3
and 4 students who participated in the role-play of the ‘Prodigal son’ at the Parish
Family Mass on Saturday evening. I was so proud of them presenting this item
after only two practises with Roly during the week. They practised excellent
oral language skills including reading/speaking in front of an audience (the
congregation), using a microphone, working together to share parts, and using
expression in their voice. Well done Keira, Annajhay, Nicolas, Adam, and David,
and to Bobbie, Rhianna and Jacqui who did a great job of bobbing up and down
with the signs!
Room 3 and 4 children also
did the Prayers of the Faithful and Offertory at the Mass. J

Frans Du Plessis
Frans has sent us ‘George
the bear’, his special friend who will take the place of Frans in Room 4 with
us, for the time that Frans is in hospital. Our job is to keep George busy
doing all the things that we do, like learning, playing, going out in the
weekends etc. Then we report back with photos and stories on a google doc
that Frans, his teacher, and his family can follow. Frans can also contact us
this way when he feels up to it. This is an excellent initiative from Frans’s
teacher and we are enjoying having George. Gabrielle was lucky to be the first
to take George home for the weekend. The photo is of George presenting his oral
book report to the class last week, with help from Sully and Annajhay. Can you
spot George?
