Week 4 Information

  Good afternoon  parents, Wow! What an absolutely busy yet fun first full week we have had in the Year Two team since swimming lessons have finished and we are into full days of learning.  Can you believe it is already week 4? I am so proud of how much focus and persistence with a positive attitude our Year Two team are showing when learning new things. In just a few weeks we are already growing our confidence to problem solve and continuing to build our independence to complete our work, try out new things and even suggest and share our own ideas and other ways we can show what we know and have learnt.    Thank you to all who have made the time to read through the parent information slides posted last week and read through the other information in the previous posts. I hope it was a great way to find out the 'nitty gritty' of  Year Two learning and life in our class. Please feel free to refer back to the previous blog post for a link to the slides present...

Year Two Parent Information Night

We are so excited to teach your children and have already had such a great two weeks getting to know everyone. We would love for you to have a look through the presentation so you are informed about the ins and outs of Year Two.  Whilst the whole presentation is important, there are a few slides that relate to time tabling and academic information.

Week 2...Yahoo!

Dear parents,  I hope you have had a great start to your week and have enjoyed hearing about our swimming adventures over the past week and a half. We have loved being down by the bay despite the cooler weather, the water has been like glass! Have a look at some of the pictures from our lessons below... Just a few messages this week... Parents in the classroom: Sadly at this stage parents are no longer able to enter into the classroom in the mornings during gathering time.  As per the government information for schools, parents must also wear face masks at school even when outside. Unfortunately, this also extends to parent teacher interviews so therefore our main port of call will be via email. Please see the previous blog post if you do not have my email address. Parent Information Night: Due to COVID requirements there will not be a parent information night this year. We will pass on the required information in another form and more information will be coming out next week....
