Kia ora everyone.
Already 2 weeks gone in this term and we are starting to get back into the flow of things. Some students have been showing some wonderful respect to the class and working really hard so far which has been really neat to see. We have introduced the student of the week award that comes with a certificate and $50 banqer cash (if you don't know what banqer cash is ask your child as this could be a good conversation starter). So if you see you child getting one of these certificates make sure to give them a lot of praise and find out why they received the award. In PE over the next 3 or 4 weeks we are going to be doing some adventure based learning which involves team work, building great leaders, and learning the qualities to become an important member of a team. Im really excited about this and hope this may make our students stronger in each of these aspects. Also in Social Science we are on the subject of conservation. The students had some homework of finding out things they do well at home and to come up with some things they could do better (ie. take out plugs when not in use). If you haven't seen this have a chat with them as if you could try at least one of their recommendations it could give them a feeling that they are making a change and could share that with the class. Remember this Tuesday there will be a meeting about the end of year camp. We have collected some student voice as to what they would like so this will mostly just be a meeting with the parents to discuss how we will do things this year. Anyhow~ if you have any questions or concerns about anything please make sure to contact us so we can keep on top of things. Sincerely, Lyndon and Alison.
