Week 6 Term 2 2022
WEEK 6 TERM 2 2022 I hope you are all enjoying the long weekend and the wonderful weather we had Saturday and Sunday. Please remember that tomorrow is a teacher-only day. Last week was action-packed with children viewing the Mother Mary icon in the church and our Year 4 to 6 children celebrating Mass together with the icon and other parishioners We celebrated Pentecost Mass together as a school and weren’t our little readers fantastic. The singing was great too. I know we had a few technical issues with the laptop but the children were great in just carrying on. During the weekend a large number of our children were Confirmed and made their First Holy Communion. Our children looked stunning in their special clothes and were very excited on their special day. We got our cross country completed in between showers on Friday and the team to compete at the Interschools has been selected and notified. Our Chess team also performed particularly well in Taupo, being placed first, second and third and Claire Delos Santos received the top girl award. The team has now qualified for Nationals later in the year. A team is travelling to Hamilton this week to compete in a tournament over there. Thanks Ray. There will be no library this week with there only being three days at school. I will be away Wednesday for a funeral and possibly Thursday with the Ripper Rugby.
Tuesday: Teacher Only Wednesday: No Mrs. Dinniss Thursday: Kapa Haka and singing Ripper Rugby for the team of kids Friday: Our Learning Literacy: Narratives. We will be writing a Easttle on Narrative writing. Maths: Multiplication. We are learning how skip counting, repeated addition and using known facts can help us solve multiplication problems. RE: This week we start the I am statements we will start with the Resurrection and Vine - Walt - Jesus helps us to grow when we stay connected to him John 15:1-8. (Passage taken from the New Living Translation.)
“I am the true grapevine, and my Father is the gardener. Structured Literacy: Mrs D's 'r controlled syllables again this week, children will be working with the words from last week again. Mrs T's groups are working on 'Y can sound like the long e' at the end of multi-syllable words. Sounds fancy, eh? These spelling rules will also be linked to learning when reading and writing. -- |
