We would just like to say that the children are working so hard, they are following instructions beautifully and we are getting through a lot in each day...we hope they are sleeping as soundly as we are! A big thank you to those parents that were able to attend our meeting last week. If your child has not yet given you their copy of the booklet, please let me know or come in and grab one.

Good afternoon parents, What a stunning weekend to relax in the sun, giving us a chance to rest and recoup from our first week of school. Last week was a great start to the year, we accomplished so much work.  Firstly we worked hard to set some SMART goals about what type of learner we wanted to be this year. In this, each student made a promise of what they are going to aim to do. Please come in and check out what your child has chose! Another activity we completed was associated with the making of our class rules. To do this we had to look at the school values of COMPASSION, APPRECIATION, RESPECT and EXCELLENCE and how these should look, feel and sound in our school. The students in pairs had to illustrate these ideas onto templates to display under our values.

Good evening parents, Firstly, we just wanted to thank you for your amazing organisation and assistance this morning. The students came in so excited and happy to see one another and start their day with us. It was also a pleasure meeting so many parents this morning. If you didn't get a chance this morning, I look forward to meeting you in the future. We had such a positive day today, learning about each other as well as myself and Alison. A main focus of today was to really look at working as a team and the ways we are going to make our little family at '4R' be as positive and safe as possible for all. So for a little fun at the start of the day, we carried out some team games that generated the talk around our classroom rules. Here are some pictures from the games: HOMEWORK: This week the students have: 1. Reading - Students are to read for 10 minutes each night and enter it into their Readi
