Term 4, Week 3


Good afternoon everyone,
This is a really important blog post, especially the first two points, so please read carefully.

Leadership Speeches:
We have been looking at what makes a good leader and what makes a good leadership speech. Attached below is a personal assessment form that the students will be filling out on Wednesday. Could you please discuss the questions with them so they have some prior knowledge before Wednesday’s lesson.
As a young person it is hard to gauge what qualities and strengths you have, so its great opportunity to discuss with them about what makes them great.



2 by 2 digit Multiplication:
I have attached a Khan Academy video below on the process of working out a 2 by 2 digit multiplication question. Could you please watch this with your child, or get your child to watch it as some students are missing a couple of the steps and I think they are getting sick on my voice haha.

Interschool Athletics Carnival:
Just a reminder that the Interschool Athletics Carnival is this Thursday 25th October. Please remember the students need to wear their school sports uniform (green polo) and bring their recess, lunch, water bottle and hat on the day.

Socktober: 
Friday is “Crazy Sock Day”.  We are encouraging the students to wear crazy socks and to bring in a gold coin donation for children in poverty. Students will be invited to a lunch time dance party to “Dance their Socks Off”, with Year 3-6 dancing from 1.00-1.15, and P-2: 1.15-1.30.
