Our Assembly Item

Today we performed our assembly item for the whole school. It was wonderful to see everyone speaking clearly into the microphone and sharing their strength. The singing was fantastic. Well done Room 11 you made me very proud today. Here are some of the powerpoint photos that we sung along to. The photos were taken by Harry of our favourite places in the school. Some of the photos make me laugh.

Our 5 special things

Meet the Teacher, Swimming

Come along and hear about what is happening in Room 11 tomorrow night at 7.15. I will be discussing the class programme, expectations and looking at our class booklet. It is also a great chance to meet some other parents with children in this class.

Just a reminder that swimming starts tomorrow. We will be leaving school at 11.00 and returning at 12.30. Thank you to all the parents who have volunteered to walk down with us. We couldn't do it without you.

We have been applying to become a member of Room 11 and have completed a brief CV. This includes what our strengths and our personal qualities are. These are interesting to read particularly when we have added the referee statements from parents. Thank you for taking the time to do this. come in and read our CVs which we are displaying on the wall.

Happy Wednesday :)

Welcome back to Week 2. Today we were looking at our strengths and what our smart is : people, music, picture, body, self, nature, word and number. Most people had 1 or 2 smarts but some people had more than 2 smarts. They have multipotentiality. We had lots of fun saying this word. We will be looking at how we can use this information to benefit our learning. This week we will also be working on the value of the term which is RESPONSIBILITY and setting up a display about the ways that we can show it.
Homework has begun this week and everyone should know what to do. Any questions come and see me or email me. Just a reminder that on Thursday night at 7.15 the staff are running a WELCOME BACK TO SCHOOL DISCO to raise money for our Relay for Life team. The cost is $3.00 and there will be lots of glow toys, chips and chocolate to buy as well. Parents are invited to the staffroom for supper and a chance to meet some other parents in our school. Have a great week.

Day 1

We have had an awesome first day. The children had a busy day today getting to know each other. We will be focussing on creating a supportive and fun class environment for everyone over the next few weeks. You should have received a class newsletter and a consent form today. The consent form needs to come back to school as soon as possible. The children also need to bring along 5 things, over the next 2 days, that tell us something about them. We will video them and hopefully be able to share some on our blog.
