Friday, August 13th

Hi all,

We had a busy week in Room 15 with lots of learning and assessments. I tested every child in reading, writing and maths with some good results - many children moving up multiple levels in reading.

Calendar Art is finished and looks great. It can be viewed in class and I'll also put it on here next week. Order forms will go home shortly.

This week Sahar's poem was accepted to be published in the next Toitoi magazine, distributed in schools and libraries around New Zealand. Each term it receives 1000 submissions and only 40 are accepted. It's a real achievement - well done Sahar! See her poem below.

Remember next Wednesday, August 18th is Whacky Fale Pyjama Day where students can wear pyjamas with their fale colour. If they don't have these they can wear any pyjamas, or if they prefer they can come in clothes. Friday, August 20th is an Accord Day - teachers have DMIC PD and school is closed for students.

Stars of Week 3 were Sahar, Pia, Shalom, Prisha and Joseph.

Mr Henderson.
