Welcome back for
Term 2. I trust you are refreshed and ready for a new term of fun and learning.
Important dates
coming up:
·Monday
1st May: Monday Whole School Prayer, 9 am in the Church. Please join
us.
·Swimming:
Tuesday 2nd May & Thursday 4th May. Come prepared
with all your gear. On Tuesday we will leave for the pool at 12.15 pm, and on
Thursday we will leave for the pool at 1.15 pm.
Homework Routines for Term 2:
This term the children will continue to
bring home their Homework clearfiles on a Monday. Homework will include a Maths
sheet, a Reading Comprehension task, and where appropriate an R.E. or Writing
task. Please ensure that your child’s homework time is straightforward, and
that it fits in with your family’s needs. Write a note in their clearfile at
any time is there is an issue with homework.
Health
& Wellbeing:
Following on from our Circle Time and
Restorative Practice learning last term, I will be continuing to focus on the
Health & Wellbeing of all students in Room 4. This term we will be looking
closely at ‘What our feelings look and sound like’, and ‘Strategies for coping
with our feelings’. Alongside Circle Time we will be developing Circle Skills
including being a good friend, using our voice, being aware of how our words
and actions affect others, and building resilience. I invite your input or
questions at any time. Various discussion topics may also come home with your
child in their homework clearfiles or they may come up in general conversation
with you at home.
Technology
Update:
We have now completed 3 out of 4 of our
Garden structures, which have been given pride of place in the School Garden.
Thank you Mr Cooney for your continued support to get these finished. We now
have the job of building up Room 4’s garden plot by digging it over, placing a
wooden surround in, and adding compost to the soil. Fun!!!!
Regards, Markelle Ward J
