Week 5...What a Ride

Good afternoon 4DEL Parents,

I hope that you have had a good weekend...my footy tipping has been the bonus of what has been a very difficult week.

Last week I was absent from class as I was home with my daughter who had tested positive for COVID after a school trip to Perth the previous Friday.  

She's had a rough week with it for sure and I tested positive yesterday...

I have to say I am feeling pretty rough and am very grateful for Netflix and Panadol!

I will be absent from class this week and relief will be in to cover our class...Ben and I have been in close contact over the past week and he has been keeping me updated on well the students have been doing! 

We spend a lot of time planning and prepping the term ahead so my relief will run the teaching and learning programs that Ben and I put together and he will keep me updated.

I realise that this is not ideal and I am sorry that I am not able to be in class...I am looking forward to this week being over so I can get some strength and normality back to life, I appreciate your patience.

If you have any urgent questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch...I will check in with Ben daily and my relief will also provide updates each day.

Once I am back in class I will confirm a new date for our assembly item which was postponed last week...again, I am sorry for the inconvenience.

I hope you all stay healthy and well!

Kindest regards, 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...
