Year PPT OLC

A few important updates....... Reading Folder Thank you for purchasing a reading folder for your child. We have begun sending them home with a home reader inside. We will also use it for sending out a new set of high frequency words to learn and any other notes for parents. The recommended type of folder was selected due to it's durability. Folders will be passed onto your child's Year One teacher next year. We have students in year three still using their original folder. Unfortunately we were unable to put this folder on the book list as the company we go through does not supply them. It is nice to know though, that we are supporting a local business by purchasing them in town. Please bring the folders in every day. They are to be placed in the box located on the table facing the entrance of the classroom. To encourage independence please have your child place their folder in the box themselves. Also make it a habit to check the folder every day for notes etc. Home Rea

Dear Parents, We have been learning about Australian Animals in Literature lessons. We travelled around Australia with Hush and Grandma Poss (Possum Magic), learnt about the unconditional love of family with Koala Lou and even created a crazy bush inspired stew (Wombat Stew). The children have experiemented with natural and man made collage materials to create some amazing learning. We have researched factual information about animals and made up stories about our favourite characters. We have also been learning all about 3D shapes. Now we know about 1D, 2D and 3D shapes! The sky is the limit with our clever kids! Here are some pictures of what we've been up to. REMINDER: Please remember that on Friday mornings we have Assembly. All children need to arrive at school on time so they can settle in without rushing. Running late can cause unwanted stress that we really don't want for our little people. The classroom is open at 8.30am and we need to line up for Assembly at 8.45am
