Room 22 Arahoe 2014

Kia Ora everyone and welcome to Term 

2!

In Room 22 we are very excited about the changes to our learning programme this term. In the mornings we would love to encourage you to come inside and read with your child before school. It’s a great way to give them some extra reading mileage and have some special time before the school day starts. Also from Monday to Thursday we will be sending home readers like normal but the children will also be bringing home an extra book to read each night from their pick boxes.

Swimming has officially stopped and will restart early Term 4.

Just a reminder that our library day is still Wednesday from 11:15-11:50. The children can issue one book at a time and are welcome to change it in their lunchtimes and before or after school!

In week 3 we have our trip to the Henderson Transfer Station (Thursday 22^nd May) and an Art workshop with Graham Dodd (Friday 16^th May)! If you haven’t already brought your child’s permission slip and money in could you please do so as soon as possible.  We also need lots of parent help so don’t be shy!!! It’s going to be a fantastic trip.

To keep up to date with upcoming events please check the school calendar on the Arahoe school website.

Our Topic theme for Term 2 is Sustainability and we will be learning all about Wriggly, Squiggly Worms! Keep watching the blog to get regular updates.

One way parents can get involved is with our Dig Deep or Donate campaign!

Dig Deep:  We have a collection of native trees that have been donated to our school and we would love your help to plant them.  
Donate:  You can also donate native plants if you wish, and can plant it yourself.  All donated plants will get a tag as pictured.

The first 50 registrations will receive one native tree to dig into the grounds.

Dig Deep and Donate!
