Kia Ora Parents and Caregivers
Welcome
back to Rowandale School for Term 4. I will be the teacher for the wonderful Milky
Way Galaxy Kids as Miss Dickson has started her teaching adventure in Europe. I
am really excited to be here and to look forward to our busy term, full of
learning and achievement!
For
your information here are a few notices:
Conferences:
In Week Three we will be holding Parent/Teacher conferences. I am really
looking forward to meeting you and having meaningful conversations about your
child’s learning. This one on one communication is extremely valuable so please
let me know if you cannot make any of the allocated times and we can arrange
another time to meet.
Homework:
At the start of the year your child received a bright orange book bag that is
clearly named. Thank you for taking the time to check they are bringing this
home each night and reading a book. After they have read please continue to
sign their homework notebook and remind them to bring it back to school.
Fundraising:
This year we will be going on an adventure in Term 4. Thank you to everyone who
helped with the fundraising events in Term One and Two. Once again we will be
holding numerous fundraising events this term and we really look forward to
your support with these activities.
Cultural
Event: In Week Eight the entire school will be
performing in a cultural performance extravaganza. The Milky Way Galaxy class
has a great pool of talent but we always need more! If you can offer your
experience and time we would love to see you down in class helping with our
performance.
Prize
Giving & Graduation: In Week Nine prize
giving will take place. Please come and celebrate our learning on this day! We
will also be having Graduation for our departing Year Six students. This will
be a celebration of their leadership and learning, we would love to have your
support at this event also.
Open
Door Policy: At Rowandale, we have an open door policy.
If you would like to pop in to talk about your child’s development, their classroom
environment or to see their learning, please do not hesitate to contact me or
see Judith in the main office to make an appointment.
Class
Blog: At the start of the year Riria Dickson
created a class blog to post about our learning in class. The link to this page
is http://themilkywaygalaxykids.blogspot.co.nz/
. This will be an exciting space this term, with the kid’s blogging about their
learning and experiences. Please take the time to have a look.
If
you have any queries about this information or school in general please don’t
hesitate to contact me.
