Week Ten


It is hard to believe that it is already week 10 of Term 3! It has been an extremely busy term and all our children have worked really hard. We are enjoying seeing all the progress they are making in all areas of learning.

Literacy

In our last week of term, we will be reviewing the sounds Nn, Bb, Ee, Ll, Pp, Ww, Jj and Vv. We are also beginning to identify the sound at the end of the word. Sight words covered this year include, I, am, a, can, Mum, look, at, it, Dad, is, in, go, the, see, we, like and here. Please return your child’s key tags so that they can be updated and returned to you next term.

Numeracy

We will be reviewing the numbers 1-15. Counting forwards and backwards 1-10 continue to be a focus.

Learning Journey Afternoon

A reminder that our Learning Journey afternoon at Wattle Grove Primary School has been placed on our calendar. For Blue Group children this will be held on Monday 23 September from 2.00 - 3.30pm. Parents are invited into our classroom to view scrapbooks and portfolios. We will also have science projects to explore and a literacy and numeracy activity to complete together.

School Fete

The second important date is our school fete. This will be held on Wednesday 23 October. Blue Group are invited to attend and will be required to be signed in and out of the office for the afternoon only. As this is not a Blue Group day, it is not compulsory to attend. Room 1 will be selling playdough this year. Blue Group children will be involved in setting up the stall prior to the event. To ensure adequate supervision on the day of the fete, there will be a list on our board for you to indicate which children will be joining us. 

Finally, thank you to those that have returned dance permission slips and money. Dance lessons begin first day back next term. We return to school on Monday 14 October.
