Term 4, Week 8

Room 4:  Term 4, Week 8

Monday 4^th December, 2017

What a fantastic day we had on Friday for the bike trip to Mrs Beilby’s house, albeit a little TOO hot. We have so many things to be grateful for:

*Our awesome parent helpers without whom the day could never have happened.

*Mrs Beilby for generously sharing her beautiful home and garden.

*God… for the lovely day and all His wonderful creation.

*Room 4 for baking the great Christmas cookies… they were decorated by all the children who enjoyed them a lot.

*All the children, who self-managed their belongings, lunch, water bottles, bikes, helmets and who all followed instructions and kept each other safe.

*Mr Milford – for coming in on Wednesday to check our bikes and helmets and help us get prepared for the big day.

*Mason’s mum Tracey for her nursing duties at the end of the day – we appreciate this very much.

*The mini-golf owners who accommodated us and didn’t mind late payers!

*Eisteddfod Song presentations in class, Monday 4^th and Tuesday 5^th December.

Movie screening of ‘Wonder’

On Thursday 14^th and Friday 15^th December Rooms 4, 5 & 6 will have the opportunity to view the movie ‘Wonder’ at the local movie theatre.  All three classes have recently read the book in class, and it seemed like too good a chance to miss. Because the movie begins at 9 am on both those mornings, it would be great if children could be delivered straight to the theatre by 8.55 am. Bus students will be transported down by staff. All students and teachers will walk back to school after the movie. School uniform must be worn. Notices will be sent out closer to the time.

Reminder:

*Thursday 14^th December – 9 am: Room 5 and the Year 5’s from Room 4.

*Friday 15^th December – 9 am: Room 6 and the Year 4’s from Room 4.

Have a great week. Markelle Ward J
