Term 4 Week 7

Today we celebrated Christ the King Day. We had a lovely liturgy in the Prayer Garden to start the celebrations. The next treat was a sausage, then we enjoyed tabloid sports. We each had an ice-block to finish the day. We were in groups with children from other classes for the tabloid sports. Everyone participated and encouraged each other - it was a wonderful way to celebrate our feast day. A special thanks must go to the Year 7s and Year 8s and their teachers for all their planning and organisation. You did an amazing job.

This morning we presented Mathletics Certificates to: Annabel and Danny. Denver, who was away today, was also in the top three for last week. Congratulations.

Danny is also our Mathlete of the Day. Ka pai, Danny.

On Saturday several Room 13 people played sport. Three people were named 'Player of the Day' for their teams. Congratulations to: Wil - cricket; Paige - T-Ball; and Elliott - cricket. Thanks for bringing your trophies to share with us.

Term 4 Week 6 'Star of the Week' and Other News

This week's Star of the Week is Christian.

Ka wani ke, Christian, it's great to have you in Room 13.

Another week of swimming is over. A big thank you to everyone who helped out, especially those Dads and Grandads who supervised the boys. We really appreciated it. 

Looking ahead to next week:

*Monday is Christ the King Day when we celebrate our feast day. The celebrations will start at 11am with a liturgy in the Prayer Garden. After this the children will be given a sausage courtesy of the Parent Council (thanks, you are wonderful), and in the afternoon we will have tabloid sports.

Please note that children will be given one sausage so they will need to bring extra food for lunch, as well as morning tea. Children also need to bring shorts, t-shirt, and trainers/sneakers to change into for the sports. It is going to be a fun day for all.

*We will be back into routine from Tuesday, with reading, spelling, and Mathletics on the homework agenda. Thank you for your continued support with homework.

*On Monday 17 children will be bringing home a letter about the booking procedure for their Student Lead Conference. These will be held in Room 13 on Monday 3 December from 3:30pm - 6:30pm. Reports will be sent home on Thursday.

Have a fantastic weekend.
