Children don\u2019t need to unpack their school bags when they get to school. <\/div>School Cross Country <\/h2>
<\/p>
School Cross Country <\/h2>This will be held on Friday, 23 May. Our children will run in their year groups. Teachers will walk their classes onto the big field for a warm,-up and then each year group will line up ready for their run. <\/div>Year 1 will run at 11.20am (approx)<\/div>Year 2 will run at 11.30am (approx) <\/div>
<\/div>We have daily practice runs to prepare for this event, including running on the big field and during our daily fitness sessions. Thank you for sending your child to school in appropriate footwear for running. <\/div>
<\/div>Fraction Fun (MATHS) <\/h2>For the last two weeks, we have focused on fractions for our maths learning. Next week, we would like our kids to make Fairy Bread as a celebration of the end of this learning focus. If your child has specific dietary requirements (dairy\/gluten), please email your child's homegroup teacher to let them know. <\/div>
<\/div>Dear family and wh\u0101nau,<\/i><\/div>This week, we learned about fractions as numbers. We explored the meaning of the top and bottom numbers in a fraction. Ask your child about the meaning of the numbers in a fraction like three-quarters or seven-eighths.<\/i><\/div>We used two types of material to explore fractions, circles, and rods. Challenge your child to divide circles up into equal parts and to draw a number line showing the size of fractions.<\/i><\/div>
<\/div>
<\/div><\/div>Learning Through Play <\/h2>Our beautiful tamariki still enjoy our Learning Through Play sessions with our whole hub. This week included the dress-ups and some disco dancing too! <\/div>
