Newsletter Term 4 Week 9



Hi there and welcome to Week 9 of Term 4 in Team 7 - only 8 full school days to go till the end of the year!

It was fantastic to see so many Dads in Team 7 on Friday for the Read, Feed, Speed. Thanks so much for taking the time to do this, the children were thrilled to see you there.

Well done to Logan and Annabelle (pictured) who were placed at the Primary Sports Canterbury Athletics last Tuesday. Logan was a member of the 9 years boys' relay team who were second and Annabelle had a super race to take 3rd out of 36 in the 9 years girls' 1000m.

Learning Reports went home last Friday and hopefully you have had a chance to have a good look at them. This is our first year of reporting in this way, so do give us some feedback on how you have found them.

Week Eight
Last week we will presented a number of our weather findings to the class - the children were great and we look forward to more this week. We had our first class game of touch but didn't swim last week! We will continued working in our Reading Groups and we had fun being angels and mortals.

Week Nine
This week we will help out the Junior School with their Run, Jump, Throw day. We will present our final Weather Inquiries, have another "mortal" to look after, design a thirst quenching drink, play some more touch and a number of us are in the Cycle Champs heats on Tuesday. Logan and Rachel are at a Cricket tournament on Wednesday and Sam B. is at the Milo Trophy Finals on Friday. The new seating area is opened on Thursday evening.
