Term Two overview

Hi all,

Welcome back to a brand new term! I hope you had a relaxing holiday with your family. I had a busy time between Auckland and Thames where my mum lives. This is going to be a busy term so keep an eye on this blog for information.

One thing I'll need your help with is topic where students will learn about different types of technology and make their own. We will be building ramps and modifying Marigold's enclosure. We will also close part of the school rabbit's shelter. The topic is called "Trash to treasure: Technology in our world". Throughout the term I will be looking for donations and recycled materials. At this stage I know we will need timber for supporting beams and ramps and clear plastic for the roof. Please email me if you are able to help. When it comes to doing the work parents with building and art expertise would be welcomed in class to help students.

Important dates for this term:
Week 1: Cross Country, May 2nd
Week 3: Cluster Cross Country at Blockhouse Bay Reservce, May 14th
Week 7: Cluster Swimming Carnival at Cameron Pools, June 12th
Week 9: Reports go home, June 25th
Week 9: Disco, June 28th
Week 10: Parent-teacher meetings, July 1st and 2nd
Week 10: Portrait and sibling photos, July 2nd.

Have a great week.

Mr Henderson.
