Newsletter Term Three Week 2

Hi and welcome to Week Two for Term 3

It was great to see all the children again last week and hear about their exciting holidays and see them all working together for the week. It was great to welcome Justin Makinson from the University PE Teacher training group.

Please order your Wearable Arts tickets as it will be a great show and rthe children have worked very hard at theior pieces of art and at our class dance to introduce NZ Personalities. The Kapa Haka group has also practised hard as well as BEN J who is one of the main presenters.

Also, please return any West Zone Sports notices if you can help out next Tuesday.

Week One
This week we completed an Oral/Visual presentation in class in preparation for individual presentations over the next six weeks. We started a Badminton unit, prepared for our dance for the Wearable Arts and prepared our wearable arts. We looked at Antonyms and Synonyms in spelling and more statistic in Maths. We met with our buddy class, sang a song about heroes and started a new shared novel by Andy Griffiths.

Week Two
This week we will finalise our NZ Personalities class dance and our pieces of Wearable art. We will do some sewing of our dance costume (black NZ Silver fern singlets) and we will have lots of Senior School W.A. practices, Kapa Haka practices, model practices etc. So it will be very busy! We will also have two badminton lessons.
