!!!!!!!!REMINDERS!!!!!!!

Orders for Calendar Art need to be into the school office by this Friday.  If you wish to view your child's art it is in a green folder in the classroom.  Your child will show you where it is.

Reading!! A reading log will be sent home with your child this week.  They are encouraged to read over the holidays and record what they have read, it also needs to be signed by an adult.  If every student in their class returns their reading log after the holidays, there will be a special reward for that class. 
It is so important to keep up with the reading as students can fall behind if they have two weeks of no reading.  Maybe schedule a trip to the town library in the holidays.

Poetry Finals

Today we had the Middle School Poetry Finals.  Well done to all the students who participated in  the finals.  I would not have liked to have been the judge as they were all so good and there was only 1 point difference separating the winners in the Year 4 category.  The children spoke so confidently and they all had memorised their poems.  An amazing effort by all. You should all feel proud.
