Children participating MUST have a helmet please.

Final Library Returns
Please have ALL library books back at school by this Friday please as it is our final library session.

Can you please send ALL reading books back to school at the end of the week as these are being collected in for reshelving. If you have some spare time and would be able to help return these to the reading room, we would be most grateful.
Maths Games
As the year draws to an end and our usual reading/spelling programme ceases, why not play a boardgame for homework instead. There is loads of maths related learning in board games - counting, adding dice, recognising dice or number patterns, shapes, colours and lots of social skills as well (taking turns, good sportsmanship etc). Cards are another great way to practise maths - why not draw two cards each and practise adding or subtracting the numbers. or get clever and try it with three cards. You could also order cards, make number patterns, look at odd and even numbers... the possibilities are endless.
Have a great week :)

Library day on Friday
Some children have notices in their bags today if they have long overdue library books. Sue, our librarian would appreciate either the books being returned or the outstanding amount to replace them paid please.
Swimming
Our next class swimming session is on Friday.
We have noticed that as our swim times are in between other classes using the pool, that the changing sheds are very busy with classes overlapping, and we are already finding misplaced and unnamed clothing items being left behind. Please make sure items are named - it makes it much easier to return items.

Week 7 (21-25 November)
Welcome to Week 7 :)
Staffing
Welcome back to Ms Jill Kelk on Monday as Mrs O is away looking after Jack who is still not quite recovered from his bout of chicken pox.
Ms Kelk will also be in on Tuesday morning while Mrs Campbell is on River Leader Release.
Classroom Release
Room 19 children have PE with Mr Lukes on Thursday morning from 9-10.30am.
Spelling
This week the children need to revisit and practise previous list words in their spelling notebooks. We will soon be re-testing the children on their current spelling list so it's a great time to revisit words from earlier in the term.
Swimming
Our class swimming days are Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday. Please ensure swimming togs, towels etc are at school on these days. It is our expectation that ALL children will participate unless there is a medical reason for not swimming. Please let us know asap if your child is unable to participate due to a medical reason.
The juniors can also have a lunchtime swim on Mondays if they wish (optional).
Athletics
We will be practising for our upcoming junior athletic sports on Monday and Thursday afternoon this week. Please make sure children have suitable shoes for running, throwing and jumping.
Next week, on Thursday is our actual Athletics Day - you are most welcome to come down to school on Thursday 1 December to support the children and enjoy a shared lunch afterwards with us. In the afternoon we will also be having our optional triathlon. This is loads of fun - if you're not sure what's involved, feel free to have a chat to class teachers about it.
Sunhats
With athletics practice, class fitness and PE, it is really important all children have their school sunhat at school every day. These should be hung up on their bag hooks for easy access during the day or kept in their school bags. We have done away with the sunhat box inside the classroom - as you can imagine when 55 children are all trying to find their hats out of the same container at the same time, things get a bit chaotic!
Library Day
Please send library books back for our visit on Friday.
French Club
At this stage French club is no longer running on Wednesday lunchtimes, We will advise you if this restarts again before the end of the year.
Have a great week :)

Headlice
Headline are doing the rounds again - please check your child's hair :)
Reminder
Just a reminder that children should not be arriving at school earlier than 8.30am. This is particularly important given the recent earthquakes as often teaching staff are out of the classroom before this time and unable to safely supervise children in the case of an emergency. If you need help with before school supervision, please come and talk to us and we can help sort something out.
Rest Home Visit
Rest Home Visit
On Tuesday 13 December Kohara are visiting The Fitzroy Rest Home in Merivale to sing songs and interact with the residents. We have been practising our singing at school and we know that some of the song books have gone home too.

If for any reason your child does not come you will be reimbursed the money paid for the bus which will be added to this terms school activity fees.
If you have any questions please come and see Tracy or Monique.

Week 5 (7-10 November)
Welcome to Week 5.
Canterbury Anniversary Day
School is closed this Friday due to Canterbury Anniversary Day (Show Day).
Enjoy the long weekend.
Classroom Release
Room 18 have Art with Mrs McHaffie on Wednesday afternoon 1.30-3pm.
Library
Change of time this week due to Show Day - Kohara will have library on Thursday 11-11.30am instead. Please remember to pack the library books.
Change to Normal Programme
Becasue this is a short week we are going to have an Inquiry Week. This means our usual reading, writing and mathematics programme will not be running as usual. The children will have two poems to read during the week - on the other nights, please choose a book at home to enjoy together.
We will be starting to make dioramas, working in buddies, based around what we would like our school's outside environment to look like after the rebuild. We hope to present our models to Ms Hudson and Mrs Coleman when finished so they can consider our ideas. We have been making lots of connections about what things in nature help nurture us and the kinds of things people enjoy doing in our outside environment.
We are also hoping to fit in a walk down to St James Park since the weather meant we had to postpone our trip last Friday. Depending on weather conditions we will aim to walk to St James Park either on Tuesday (or Wednesday if weather is not suitable) leaving school around 12 noon, taking our lunch down there for a picnic and then returning to school by 2pm at the latest. We will update on the blog later in the week to confirm day.
PTA News
Don't forget cook books are on sale via the office - a great Christmas present idea!
