Week 7

Kia Ora, Guten Tag and welcome to our blog for 2012 J

This is where you will be able to find your homework tasks, team newsletters, information about what is happening during the week and reflections on what we have been doing in class.

We are now in Week Seven. This week we have our first our many shows. If you want to go you need to pay $7 or $20 tomorrow to cover all shows that come to our school this year.

Our school swimming sports are this Wednesday. It is expected that everyone brings their togs to participate in our class relay team as well as those people who are part of our Kauri Team. Remember you are allowed to bring green clothes to show your Kauri Team spirit and support.

If you were unable to make it to the Goal setting conferences two weeks ago please let me know what day and time suits you to meet at some stage during the next couple of weeks. It is really important that your child shares their learning and goals with you.

We now have 2 bright green chrysalises hanging from our swan plants and two more caterpillars growing very rapidly. Keep an eye out on our blog to see the photos J

I am still very impressed to see the amount of homework that was handed in on time. Way to go my Absolutely Fabulous Organised Learners!!!! J Keep up the great work and effort.  

REMINDERS: A 10 or 20 page clearfile or pay your $1, SMP slips, shows money either $7 or $20, homework is due this Friday.

A reminder for our returning Year 8’s to lead by example and make the most of all of the opportunities that Maeroa has to offer and for Year 7’s to experience as much as they can while they are at Maeroa.

PE and Activate

A reminder that we are still swimming even though the days are getting a bit colder. Our pool is solar heated and the covers are going on at the end of the day to help keep the pool warm.

You MUST have a note if you are not swimming. It is not good enough to say that you ‘forgot’ your togs as the routine hasn’t changed from day one.

 Thank you to those Organised Learners who bring in a note explaining why they aren’t swimming and for how long they won’t be swimming for. This is the expectation.

Our days for PE are Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays. As well as swimming we will be doing Activate every day. The expectation is that you will need to bring your PE uniforms every day.
Homework

Homework is given out every week on a Monday and it is expected that homework is returned completed on Fridays. You are expected to complete around 30 minutes of homework every night.

HOMEWORK IS DUE IN ON FRIDAY 16^th  MARCH.
