Almost time to go back


Hey everyone!

I hope you have all had a magical, restful, healthy and well deserved break away from school and break away from ME!

We have (as always) a busy start to the term...our big homework focus is the Amazing Race, this is where you and your desk groups travel around the globe, learning about different cultures, rituals and basic facts about each country, just like the programme too there will be a Road Block to complete each week.

You will be required to do most of this at home each week so as you are working in small groups, communication is going to be the key!

As always, we have lots of assessment to complete so we can group properly for maths and spelling.

What has been the highlight of your holidays? Mine has been joining the gym and doing heaps of Zumba!

Don't forget school closes at 1pm this Friday as we have a NZEI Union Meeting and Friday of Week 2 is teachers Only day (lucky you guys!)

See you in one sleep!
