Hello everyone!!
It's been a busy start to Term 2 and the students in Room 15 have
been working well.
We hope everyone had a lovely Mother's day and enjoyed the special
flower bracelets the students made, developing their cutting and fine motor
skills. Thanks to our Art teacher, Ms Randall, for supplying the class with the
materials.
Congratulations to last week's merit certificate winners, Ishaal,
Tyson, Ritaaz and Krystal. These students are great role models to their peers
as they always demonstrate excellent manners and do their best at all times.
Well done!
Our own class assembly is coming up on Friday the 14th in Week 7
and the students are already doing a great job remembering the actions and
lyrics to the Continents and Oceans song. We are enjoying working with Room 13 and
Mrs Laycock, learning all about the world and the Earth's resources as part of
our Geography and Science unit. Over the next few weeks our classes will be
working on their WOW writing which will be displayed at the assembly. Be sure
to check out the students' wonderful work on the day.
**If any parents are available to volunteer a few hours of their
time over the coming weeks to help create our colourful continent backdrop,
we'd be ever so grateful! Just let Mrs. T know if you are available any
Wednesday afternoons from 1:30pm.**
Super Scientist will be running again this term and a note with
more information will be going home soon. This time students will spend 2 to 5
minutes demonstrating a small, safe experiment to their class and will be
assessed on their speaking and listening skills. Students are encouraged to
start thinking about what sort of experiment they could share with the class.
We have been lucky to work with our buddy class throughout the
year. Each week a number of Year 6 students help our Year 2 students with their
reading and these Buddy Reading sessions are looked forward to by all. Our Year
6 buddies have also helped celebrate Harmony Day as well as commemorate ANZAC
Day. Thank you to Mrs Lowther and the Year 6 students of Room 11!!
The cold and flu season is upon us and it has hit Wattle Grove
quite hard. We will be encouraging students to wash their hands before eating
and remind them to cough or sneeze into their elbows.
Thank you again to everyone who attended the Parent Interviews at
the end of Term 1 and feel free to stop by if you ever have any questions. I
appreciate you supporting Room 15 on their learning journey and look forward to
updating you again soon.
All the best,
Mrs T x
