Week 3

Kia Ora and welcome to Room 15 for 2013. I hope you are all as excited as I am about the start of a new year with new faces, new experiences and successes to look forward to.

All information relating to our class including homework tasks, newsletters, reminders, successes and much more can be found on this website.

This week is Week THREE. This week we will be focusing on our learning in groups now that most of our assessment has been completed. It is really important that all of you have all of your stationery.

Thank you to those people who came to the Fun evening. It was great to see you there and to spend some time with your parents.

Year 8’s who are returning to Room 15 are expected to lead by example and support people who are new to our room. Remember to make the most of the opportunities offered to you this year!

Year 7’s and new Year 8’s to our school are also encouraged to make the most of the opportunities that Maeroa has to offer. You are the only one standing in the way of experiencing success!!

Please keep sending in your Newsletter & SMP return slips. I am still waiting for SMP forms from KRISTIAN, KARL & KACEE.   

I am waiting for newsletter returns from AYDIAN, WILLIAM, RYLEE, KATARINA, STACEY, CAITLYN, MCKEILAH, JADE, FLORENCE, DANIELLE, TEGAN & MCKENZIE. We need these forms returned as soon as possible so that we can confirm numbers for camp.             

Thank you those of you who have been super Organised Learners and have returned these forms already.

There was an item missing on the Stationery List for this year. Each child needs to have either a 10 or 20 page clearfile. Warehouse Stationery have these for around $2 but a spare clearfile leftover from last year would be fine. This needs to come to school as soon as possible.

 

PE & ACTIVATE

Our PE days this year are TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY AND FRIDAY. For most of the first term this means swimming and you are expected to have your togs with you on these days. If for any reason you are unable to swim you must have a note written and signed by your parents / caregivers.

As Term One goes on we will be starting other PE lessons and you are required to wear your PE uniform for these sessions. We will also be going out for Activate on Mondays and Thursdays, which means that your PE uniform should be at school 5 days a week, every week!

 

HOMEWORK

Tasks are given out on Mondays and are expected to be completed and handed in on Fridays. You are expected to complete 30 minutes of homework EVERY night.

Homework is due back by FRIDAY 22^nd  FEBRUARY.
