Week 3 Is Here!

Good morning parents,

 Welcome to another busy week in 4DEL, I hope that you had a great weekend and enjoyed the beautiful weather!
REMINDERS - WEEK 3 

 Swimming Trials - Please be aware that these are happening tomorrow 18th February at the Geographe Leisure Centre in Bussselton. We will be hopping on the bus promptly at 9am.

 We ask that you child wears their sport uniform - they are to come to school with their shoes and socks on. Please send a change of thongs...students are not to wear thongs to school.

 Your child will need to have plenty of suncream already applied, a rashie (this is mandatory), goggles (if they wish) and a towel, as well as their water bottle, hat and a substantial recess.
School AGM - A reminder that all parents are encouraged to attend the school AGM on Wednesday night beginning at 7pm in the hall...Mr Lee is a stickler for time and assures us we will be out of there by 7.59pm! This is a great chance to hear what is happening in the school and to volunteer for any positions! The P&F is still looking for members!

OUR LEARNING - WEEK 2

We had a fantastic week last week beginning our learning around narrative writing. This week we will be looking at creating a really good character descriptions, we have talked about the importance of nouns, adjectives, adverbs and verbs being used purposefully in our writing.

We had a great time investigating the properties of different materials in our design technology lesson...we had a a variety of different objects to check out to see if they would float or sink, were rigid or flexible or transparent or opaque. 





This week we are going to be looking at creating a catapult, firstly from popsticks and then we are going to swap in different materials to see how far we can fling our item. Safety glasses will be worn!

Homework - Week 3 

Our homework grid is to be completed over the week from Monday to Thursday and is due in on Friday morning to be checked. If you can please make sure that your child has chased you around the house so you can sign their grid, I would be most appreciative!

If you can also please mark your child's spelling homework after they have done it, this means that they don't repeat a mistake across the whole week.

 Once again, I thank you for a fantastic start to the term!

 Have a great week,

Caitlin

Week 10 - The Home Stretch!

Good afternoon! The last week has arrived...I can't believe it either! Term 2 has been such a busy and productive time, the students have worked like troopers producing some amazing pieces of work! We are very proud of the learning habits they have developed and the maturity they are showing as we grow closer to Year 5. In saying this, it is time for a well-deserved break! REMINDERS - WEEK 10 Father Ian and Mr Wilkie Farewell Mass   - Tomorrow Father Tony Chiera will be celebrating Mass with us in the hall to wish Mr Wilkie and Fr Ian a happy farewell and retirement. The mass will begin at 1.30 pm and afterwards there will be an afternoon tea for the parents and parishioners to share together. It has been asked if families in Years Four to Six provide a plate for this afternoon tea and take it to the hall in the morning. We thank you for your support with this. Pencil Cases Refill   - At the end of this week we will be sending the student's pencil cases ho

Week 9...The Last One!

Good afternoon parents, Welcome to the final week, if you are like me, I can remember October and then suddenly the term is at its end!  It has been a busy one here, I was lucky enough to head to the Player's night on Thursday down at Shark Park and then was also able to head to the Volunteers Breakfast on Sunday...had the best chat with Bob Murphy, he is one funny cat!  What a great opportunity for our town to have the players in, they were so appreciative of the opportunity to come and connect with their fans and were a pleasure to be around! I would like to say the biggest and most sincere thank you to you as a parent group, you have been so supportive of myself and your children and we have had a thoroughly brilliant year as a group!  To see how much the children have grown and changed is such a privilege and I am going to miss them all very very much. I wish you and your families, a enjoyable and restful break, I am sure we will see each other on the beach or around town betwe

A Couple of Reminders

Go od afternoon parents, Mrs Horrocks has asked for me to post some information about the upcoming Musical 'Go Fish' on Friday 8th June (Week 6) this term.  If you have any questions about the performance, including costumes or the logistics of the musical then Mrs Horrocks is the person to ask! We will be having a short meeting on Monday 7th May at 3.15pm. It would be great if you could make it!  If you are unable to make the meeting, but are keen to help...please let me know.  More importantly she is looking for volunteers who can donate some of their time to assist with costumes, the set and other roles.  If this is something you can assist with, then please contact or see Mrs Horrocks on that Monday. Thanks again for your ongoing support. Times Tables Quiz - Today in class I did a short quiz to check their knowledge of all their tables. As I mentioned in my blog post on Monday students in Year 3 are only expected to know their 2's, 3's, 5's
