Week 4

This is Week Four. This week we will be continuing to present our speeches. Thank you to those brave people who volunteered to present their speeches first – I am really proud of you!

For the next couple of weeks we have students from Notre Dame High School in Japan at school. We have one student in our room and I know that you will make her feel welcome and include her in your activities.

This week we also have a netball game against Room 1 – go hard people and play fair!!!!

Thank you to everyone who helped in some way with the preparation and selling of our Nachos last week. We made $29.50 profit which we will be giving to Rainbow Place.  There are still classes who are selling their food this week. Remember to keep an eye out for other types of food being sold this week by other classes.

Congratulations to those people who represented Mexico in our school Olympics last week. A great effort J This week we still have a couple of activities to complete, as the weather last week meant we had to postpone Thursdays activities. It was great to see photos of our school Olympics in both the Waikato Times and the Hamilton News last week.

If you were unable to come to the Student Led Conferences at the end of last term but you’d like to make an appointment to meet with me please let me know as soon as possible what day suits you to come in.

I would like to see more homework books being handed in on Fridays please. Thank you to those people who were Organised Learners last week and handed their work in.

A reminder that you are meant to be spending 30 minutes each day completing your homework. Some of you are not meeting this expectation and if this continues there will be consequences. Be Organised Learners and earn yourselves positive consequences.

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

Our days for PE are Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays and we will be doing Activate on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Our expectation is that you will need to bring your PE uniforms every day. There will be consequences for those of you who choose to not meet this expectation.

Congratulations to those Organised Learners who always have their PE uniforms each time we have PE, your efforts are outstanding!

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 10th  AUGUST.
