What a fabulous day it was on Tuesday. The sun was shining which allowed all of our children to take part in a well organised soccer tournament. They loved learning and practising new ball skills and being members of a team. They were tired but very happy at the end. The organisers from Sportzone commented on how well the children got on together and played to the best of their ability. Thanks to Sportzone for all the work that they did and to Mrs Cody for organising this great event. Thanks also to the parents and grandparents who joined us to support the children.
Thank you to the Days Bay Playcentre four year old group for visiting room 1 on Thursday. The children enjoyed showing you what they do at school and were very impressed with the way all our visitors joined in with the activities in the classroom.
Thank you also to those parents who have returned the portfolios.
Speech and Drama classes
These classes are being offered for year 2 children only and started on Friday. They are for half an hour and are held at school. If you would like your child to take part please contact Sue in the office to complete a registration form.
Mathematics Evening
A repeat of the information evening about what your child does at school in mathematics will be held this Thursday August 12th at 7 p.m. in room 3. I will outline the various stages of mathematical development that all children progress through and some ideas of how to help your child at home. All welcome.
Duathlon
This great event has been organised and will be held next Monday August 16th here at school. A newsletter from Mrs Cody with all the details about this event was sent home today. If you have any queries please do not hesitate to ask. We look forward to seeing many of the parents and families joining us for this fun event. We hope that the weather will be fine but if not the postponement date is Tuesday September 7th.
Vision and Hearing testing
This testing will be held for some of our New Entrant children on Tuesday 7 September.
Full School Assembly
We have assembly this Friday August 13th at 1.30 p.m. in the hall. All welcome.
Production
We are currently putting together the items for our part in the school wide production. We will be having a working bee at school in a few weeks time to make ears and tails as part of the year 1 costume. There will not be any sewing involved in this. We will just be glueing and plaiting fabric. If you would like to be part of this working bee please contact me as soon as possible.
Have a great week.
Kind regards
Maureen Buckley
Deputy Principal
