Term 2 begins!

Well, I hope the holidays have treated you well. I must say, the weather has been very kind - some amazing Wellington days!

We sadly begin Term 2 without Sophie. Sophie and her family have moved up to Auckland and we wish them all the very best for their new adventures. I'm sure Sophie will drop us a line every now and then to let us know how she is going at her new school.

Term 2 will be another busy term - lots of sport happening too.
Check out the new sports blog under the 'links list' in the side bar.
Some reminders for Term 2:
  • Any pencil cases that were taken home must come back to school on day 1 please.
  • Term 2 is a slipper term, so if we could have as many slippers at school on day 1, that would be superb!
  • The seating has changed in the class and it looks great!
  • The school Cross Country will be held on Tuesday the 18th of May. This is in week 5.
Term 2 units:
  • Art - our art unit will be focusing on drawing and a range of different techniques
  • Mathematics - we will be focusing on addition, subtraction, multiplication and division
  • P.E - our P.E unit will be cross country training and then large ball skills
  • Inquiry - Our inquiry unit will be based on electricity! Our big idea is that 'Solar energy is the best way to generate electricity'. This statement will be looked into over the term and we will either agree with the statement, or disagree with it.
