Term Three Weekly 1

I hope you all had a fabulous holiday. The children have been all a buzz this morning with their adventures and have written some fabulous recounts in postcard format. I will be putting these together into a display in our written language area along with our instructional writing from last term.

We are lucky to have three students from Korea joining us this term. We would like to extend a warm kiwi welcome to Ji Eun, Nan Joo and Dong Hun who are here for the next three weeks. We are enjoying learning about Korea as well as celebrating our differences and similarities.

We are starting our class fitness programme 3 days a week as a lead up to the school cross country in Week 4. As with all new things we will be starting slow and building up the distance that we run. We will also be talking about healthy living so everything fits together nicely. We have discussed healthy foods for lunches today and the importance of drinking water. Feel free to continue the discussion at home or chat about it when shopping.

Term 3 is a busy term so please read through our upcoming events and mark important dates like Parent Interviews, Cross Country, Y3 trip, Talent Quest, Science and Technology Exhibition etc
