Term 1 Week 8 'Star of the Week' and Other News

This week's Star of the Week is William T.

William always does his best and produces 'Triple Star' work. He listens to instructions and knows what to do. William is a super role model.

Thank you, William, it's great to have you in Room 13.

A big THANK YOU for having your child at school in good time this morning. This enabled us to be seated in the church ready for the 9am mass. I am very proud of Room 13, their behaviour in church was amazing.  They also coped well with the change in routine for the blessing from Father. Thank you, Room 13, I am proud to be your teacher.

This morning we had a visit from Rochelle. Rochelle is an ambulance driver with St John. She talked to us about her ambulance and what she does for her job. She also told us how we can get help in an emergency, then we practised dialing 111 and pretending we had to ask for an ambulance. At the end Rochelle gave us a special bag with a pencil, stickers, and a magnet in it. We also got a certificate.

Thanks, Rochelle, we enjoyed learning from you.  

 

 

Two reading groups presented plays today:

The Kiwi Group's play was called The Rock in the Road. Alexandra was the mouse; George, the horse, Isla, the dog; Luke, the rabbit; and Harrison, the goat. They gave a fantastic and confident performance. Well done!

The other play was called Landing a Job and was presented by Tui Group. Paige was the Pirate Chief; Macy, the seagull; William F, the pirate; and William T, the parrot. They also gave a great presentation. Well done!
