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 28^th – 31^st 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
