Week 4

I would like to thank all the students in Room 19 for another great week. Stars of the Week were Xavier Hansen-Bae and Aniar Sua. Lola Davis won the PB4L draw. These three students all chose to have morning tea with me next week for their reward. Well done!

Don't forget the family picnic at school tonight and goal setting meetings next Tuesday and Wednesday. More information about these are going home on Monday with your child's home study sheet. Today your child brought a notice home about our trip on March 13th. Please return the permission slip and money as soon as possible.

Have a great weekend and enjoy the sunshine.

Mr Henderson.

Week 3

It's the end of week 3 and your child has had another successful week of learning. Your child should have taken home their home study book and tasks to complete. There is a selection for them to choose from and they must complete six over two weeks. It is due on Friday, February 23rd. In addition to this they should be reading for 10 minutes every night and learning their basic facts. They have access to Sumdog, Studyladder and Spelling City websites.

Keep an eye out for blog updates during the week, normally on a Friday.

Stars of the Week are Essa Sheikh and Audrina Singh. Sofia Hamid won the PB4L prize. Every day I hand out PB4L (Positive Behaviour For Learning) tickets to students showing New Windsor School values - Respect, Responsibility and Being the best we can be - and I do a draw on Friday. The Stars of the Week and PB4L winner can choose 20 minutes on the playground, 20 minutes on a computer or morning tea with me :-)

Don't forget to book a time for goal setting with your child on February 27th or 28th. The family picnic is on at school on the 23rd. See the latest school newsletter for more information on this.

Have a great weekend.

Mr Henderson.
