ADULT HELP
We know we have an incredible group of parents and caregivers in our team and we would really love some adult help to come in to support some of our current programmes.
Ways you can help:
Maths- helping children with their counting, writing/reading numbers
Reading- Listening to children read
Writing- Supporting children during a writing session
Baking- Coming in to bake with a small group of children
Woodwork/Craft- Helping children develop some skills by making and creating items of interest and use.
If you are able to assist us, please email or come in and see your home group teacher. We are open to any of your offers and know you help will greatly benefit the children in our team!
TOP TEAM
We would like to express our gratitude to all the amazing parents who came along to support our Top Team event. Without your wonderful help, this would not have been possible! The children had an amazing time and this was evident by the HUGE smiles on their faces. As part of our afternoon inquiry, the children will be planning their own, 'Top Team' event to run with children in Koru team.HOME LEARNING.
Each student has a Home Learning book which they keep in their Home Learning Folder. It is really important they bring this to and home from school each day. Each Monday they will organise their new insert and write their weekly spelling words on the sheet. A teacher must check and sign their spelling list. If there is no signature it has not been handed in or checked by a teacher.This week we have added in the maths component to our Home Learning. each week your child will have a MMM sheet pasted into their book for them to learn. If this is new learning, your child can just work through the skill. If it is a skill that your child is able to do, then the focus will be on completing the MMM with speed with the aim of completing this within 1 minute.
That's all for now!
