Dear Parents/Caregivers of Room 11 Students,
Welcome back to
another school year! I hope you all had a restful and enjoyable holiday. I look
forward to meeting all the new faces in Room 11 this year. I’m also looking
forward to catching up with parents, those I know and those new to the
school.
This letter is to
just let you know a little about what will be happening this term, however more
specific information can be found in the School Newsletter.
Year 7 and 8 Camp
is from the 28th – 31st March at Hanmer Springs- more
information will follow during the term.
This term the
topics we will be looking into are Digital Citizenship followed by Conservation
and the NZ Environment. Our curriculum subjects and special events this term
will follow in our syndicate newsletter.
Library day is
Wednesday this year and it would be a great help if children can remember to
bring their books back on or before this day.
Homework will
start in Week 3. This will be in three
parts - spelling, reading and finishing work.
Spelling - This will consist of 10 words sent home on Monday to
learn and return on Friday. These words will be a mix of set words related to
our word study activities and a number of personal words that have been
misspelt during the week.
Reading – An electronic Reading Log will be filled out and checked on Friday to
show what has been read during the week.
Finishing work - this will consist of tasks and activities not
finished in class time or additional tasks.
I hope this answers
some of your questions. If you have any other queries please feel free to
contact me at school for an appointment or e-mail at ryan.mcinnes@christtheking.school.nz
I look forward to
meeting you and having a very productive and successful year with your child.
Yours sincerely,
Ryan McInnes
