Week 8

I know I say it each week – but what a busy week we have just had, and another busy week is coming up.

This past week saw us look at sharks – what amazing creatures- and the children have astounded me with their desire to learn more and more intricate facts. We had a group of visiting maths teachers from the Masterton region visit our school on Thursday. They were very impressed by our children, their maths skills and their amazing behaviour.

“Week 8” is gearing up to be very busy. This week sees us begin our Keeping Ourselves Safe unit – Kevin Marshall, our local police education officer will be in the school taking session.  These sessions look at ways to enable children to keep themselves safe. Tuesday ( weather permitting) we will hold our Bledisloe Cross Country event. We have been practicing for the past few weeks. The juniors run starts at approx. 12.00pm – this time is just an estimate as it depends on how quickly the other events are completed. So if you are free and would like to come and cheer on the children we would love to see you out on the field.

Our sound of the week is “sm”

Our word of the week is “can’t”

Maths in Room 4 continues to look at groups of, in relationship to multiplication.

Have a great week.
