Week 4

Swimming

Your child needs to bring his/her swimming gear (togs,towel and sweatshirt) every day to school.  Please make sure it is named as this makes it easier to return lost items.

In Week 5 we will be having set times for swimming lessons.

Week 3

The  children  shared what they did on the weekend.  A number of children went swimming - this must mean summer is coming.  Our swimming pool has been filled and as soon as it starts to get warmer a notice will come home about the days we will be swimming.

Calendar Art

On Wednesday the children will be bringing home the order form and a small photocopy of their calendar art.   This needs to be returned to the office with your money if you wish to place an order.

Athletics

Our class will be developing their different athletic skills over the next few weeks.  It is important that children wear appropriate clothing that they can run, jump and throw in.

Adam Thomas Football Session

Our class had fun playing football training games. Your child will bring home information about an after school football training programme being held at our school.  Here are some pictures ...

Ice Skating Fun

The children had so much fun - it was a really great experience.  Here are some of the pictures and a few of the comments from the children.   Their writing is on display in the classroom - please come in and have a read.

Term 4

Week 7

The children are looking forward to the school's Cross Country event to be held on Tuesday 6 September up at the University.  We would love you to come and support the children on their cross country run.  

Also on the same day, the Run-a-thon prize draw will be held in the afternoon.

Run-a-thon

The children recorded their thoughts about the run-a-thon on to pic collage and added some pictures of themselves.  Come and check these out in the classroom.

Week 4

The children are busy training for our school cross country run.  They are learning how to keep a steady pace when they are jogging or power walking.

Math - our focus this week is on equal sharing and using our 2x, 5x and 10 x tables to help us solve division problems.
