Room 21 Newsletter Monday 14th March
This morning we had 17 children in class; we welcomed back Jack and Kai who have attended schools in the North, it is nice to have them back. We farewelled Holly who will be attending Browns Bay School in Auckland. Holly has promised to keep in touch with us and I know she would welcome any email news .
Our normal class programmes have recommenced and this week we will be focusing on testing that was missed from previous weeks.
Last week we shared the Mr Men books then completed some graphic work on the computers, here are some examples of the work attempted. These are on the classroom wall for you to view.

Next month Gina, Vigie and I are going to Australia. In Australia we are going to the Gold Coast with Tite, Ray and my cousins. We are also going camping, fishing, to Water World and Sea World and the theme parks. It is really exciting. It is going to be freaky and awesome because there are freaky spiders in Australia and Sea World is going to be awesome.
Homework
Maths Each night draw a tables grid, you might try timing yourself to see how fast you can complete it correctly.
Reading keep the reading log up to date.
Spelling This week we have a competition to see who can find the most words with scr in them,
We will continue with the class talks , the children listed below need to bring a bag, this bag should contain items of importance which can be shared with the class; items might include: photos, toys, keepsakes, memorabilia, clothing etc. These talks will be held early each morning so you are welcome to stay and watch. A practice session at home the evening before the class sharing would help ensure they are more confident in front of their peers.

For the first time ever the Y4 children from St Albans School went camping. Throughout the camp we saw smiles, heard laughter and and watched as we put the 'St Albans' values to the test.
