Welcome back to Term 3

*** Welcome to Tyler!*** He has joined our class this term..... and farewell to Madison, Charlotte O, Liam and Rayvan :0( have moved to Rms 5 and 6.

A new part of our daily programme is children reading to the whole class.
We are learning to use expression in our voice and look for cues in a text which tell us about our volume and tone in a book. Everyone is really enjoying it!

Here is Kieralee reading to Tawa.

Remember to be prepared for school ......... our class goal is to have sharp pencils, lunchboxes in the class and chair ready BEFORE the bell rings.....

See you next time.... Miss C

Check out the videos to see the amazing transformation. We have been pleased to welcome Harlem into our class and his mother Roberta is helping us with Kapahaka, Thanks so much! We go to the public library next Wednesday and would love some parent help for the morning. We will walk there and back if the weather is fine. Otherwise we will Bus!!!
