On Wednesday 25th Room 4 travelled to the NG Gallery to view Michael Parekowhai's exhibition.
We really enjoyed the piano playing and seeing the massive bronze bulls.

 Dear Parents/Caregivers of Room 4 Students,

 Welcome back to another exciting term, I hope you all had a restful and enjoyable break.

 This letter is just to let you know a little about what will be happening in Term Three.

 Homework this term will be slightly different with the inclusion of learning timetables. Each Monday 10 spelling words and 12 basic facts will come home in their notebook to learn. They also must complete a Reading Log which will also come home on a Monday. Please sign your child’s notebook and Reading Log to show they are completing these at home.

Topic	Communication -
Writing	This term we are looking at discussions which will lead into writing and presenting speeches and Narrative writing.
Maths	Multiplication and Division, Algebra.
R.E	Church and Sacrament.
P.E	Thursday Sport, Winter tournament, Fitness skills, invasion games.

 Please check that your child still has all stationery needed in Room 4. There were lots of issues last term relating to children not having what they needed to learn. Essential stationery is 5 pencils, an eraser, a red and blue pen, ruler, pencil sharpener, glue stick and colouring pencils.

 I hope you received your children’s Report at the end of last term please bring it along to interviews.

All dates and times of events and activities this term will follow in the school newsletter.

 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@stannes.co.nz

 I look forward a very productive and successful term with your child.

 Yours sincerely,

Ryan McInnes
