Welcome to Term 2

Welcome to term 2. I have to apologise for the late update.

We have been very busy this term. Already this term we have had Mother’s Day, the NAPLAN tests and loud shirt day. I would like to congratulate everyone in 3D on trying their hardest on the tests.

Coming up this term we have the year 3 day in the park (this Sunday), cross country (21st May) and the fete (14th June). I look forward to seeing everyone there! Also, next week we have a special visit from RACQ to talk to us about road rules and will be continuing AFL. Congratualtions to all who were at AFL today. Almost everyone behaved very well and I'm sure everyone learnt something new, even me!

This term we are focusing on our group work skills. In particular we are learning to share and take turns, include others, be positive, express our opinions well, listen and ask good questions, negotiate, encourage and help others. We have decided to make these our focus for student of the day awards on these areas.

Our students of the days so far this term have been Imogen,

Ben S, Keanu, Lillie, Jack, Mackinley,

Grace,

Bella, Georgia, Tom, Aiden,

Billy

Amelia

and Rosie.

Well done to all of our excellent group members. Keep up the great work!

I look forward to a very exciting and busy term!!!!

Week 10

This week on Monday we talked on assembly about Friday’s Zero Waste Lunch. Ashleigh said “It was a very good success” and Joe agreed with her saying “It went successfully”.

On Tuesday we finished our recounts. “It was pretty hard but still fun” said Ben M.

We acted out the Easter Story in class on Wednesday. “It was fun, I was one of the ladies” said Ashleigh. “I thought it was pretty cool” said Billy, who was Jesus.

We finished our term book, Danny’s Egg on Thursday. “It was really, really, really good and exciting” said Ashleigh and Ben M and Joe thought it was exciting to see if the goanna ate the egg – it didn’t!

On Friday we did shuttle runs in preparation for our cross country. We also did a lot of Easter art and got glitter EVERYWHERE!!!! We also played a class favourite-shotgun maths.

Our student of the day on Monday was Lillie for excellent effort in class today.

On Tuesday Joseph was student of the day for hard work with 3D shapes.

Ashleigh was student of the day for giving everything her best effort.

Thursday’s student of the day was Ben M for working well with his new group.

Well done to Joe, Ben M and Ash who not only got student of the day awards this week but also helped me write this blog and typed up their own paragraphs!

On Friday our student of the day was Amelia for giving everything her best effort!

Congratulations to all our student of the days this week! I wonder who will be our last student of the day for term 1.

Next week is only a short week and then it is Easter holidays. However, you still need to bring your manners and good behaviour with you to school everyday!
