Term 1, Week 7


Hello everyone, welcome to week 7.

YEAR 2 BUDDIES:
We have been lucky enough to be paired up with the Year 2’s as our buddy class. Every Friday after assembly we have been helping them with their weekly spelling tests. It is great to see the responsibility that the Year 5 students are showing.






SWIMMING LESSONS:
Swimming lessons have been going swimmingly over the last week and a bit.
All students have been mostly orgainsed and ready to go which is wonderful to see.

Just a reminder that there is NO canteen at all this week, due to the students being absent at the eating times.

Majority of the children have been very responsible with applying sunscreen before we leave using the class sunscreen that I distribute, however can you please ensure that you remind your child of how important it is to do this.

Homework:

For those students that are still struggling to understand what the activities for spelling are, there is a success criteria on their Onenote.
