Week 6 Update

Good afternoon parents,

What a beautiful weekend...I spent it in Bubury with my oldest friend from primary school getting our shopping and pamper on! It was delightuful and was a wonderful way to refill my cup!

A short post for this week, however, I am looking forward to a full week getting our learning on...besides swimming we have a straight shot which will be awesome! Please note that there is no library book exchange or assembly.

A small note in regards to library, we have made a change and as of next week we will be having our library book exchange sessions on a Wednesday if you can please support your child to remember to bring their library bag.

REMINDERS - WEEK 6

Swimming Lessons - The students are doing a wonderful job with this...I am hoping that all swimming bits and pieces made it home for a wash on Friday afternoon.

Wheels After Meals - Are back for students in years 1-6 this Tuesday, they need a helmet and can leave all their gear outside Mr. Lee's office.

Parent Meetings - We will be having an opportunity to get together in Week 8 which will be wonderful! We are currently ironing out some tech issues and I will be sending a link to an online booking form that you will be able to use to make a time for us to discuss your child's progress for the first few weeks of the year.

I will be in touch as soon as this is sorted.

Homework - Last week on the homework front was a little rough, there was lots of incomplete homework brought in on Friday. I had multiple students that didn't have their homework at all or had some parts incomplete or not done at all. We had a big chat about this as a class and behaviour slips were issued as a consequence.

Whilst homework is your child's responsibilty to complete, I would appreciate it if you could check in with your child over the week to make sure they are getting things done.

Have a fantastic week,

Mrs Delane

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,...

Week 5 Update - Hump Week!

Good afternoon parents, For those looking for an embarrassing or dramatic story this week, I am sorry to disappoint!  This weekend has been all about a bit of family time and for me, catching up on a the last two Matthew Reilly novels...knocked those out yesterday so hit me up if you have any recommendations!  I also finished the Will Smith autobiography this week if anyone is looking for a really great read! It has been an interesting week trying to process what is happening here in WA as well as what is happening overseas...I can't even imagine what it must be like for families just like us to be gripped by war.  Like many parents, I am struggling  to explain it to my own children who have some grasp of what is happening but also a child like fear as well...I just don't know what to say? With this in mind, you may have seen on Facebook that as a school community, we are offering families the opportunity to attend a prayer vigil on Wednesday afternoon...
