Great News........ Room 16 will be visiting Hamilton Zoo on Thursday 11 April. We are looking at 'Communities within a Zoo' and focusing on the people who work there. We will be travelling by bus and car, leaving school at 8:45 am and returning at 2:30pm. The cost will be $13 per person and this covers transport, zoo entry, a classroom programme and of course a walk around the zoo. I will provide more information soon. We will need enough cars for 8 children who will also need to have booster seats. If you are able to provide the extra transport, please see or e-mail me. mpinfold@stmarys.rotorua.school.nz
This is another busy week. On Tuesday at 9:45, Room 16 begin Life Education lessons in the Life Education caravan which is currently at school. Our focus is 'All Together' which ties in nicely with our concept curriculum.
On Thursday, school closes at 12:30pm on that day. Children who travel home by bus will be able to remain at school and will be cared for until the buses leave.
Friday 15 March is a busy day. We have St Joseph's Mass at 9am. Our very own Sara Stahlhut will be leading the Responsorial Psalm so please make an extra effort to join us at church.
At 11am on Friday, the Junior School children will participate in their Athletics Day. All children are expected to participate. Once again we are asking for parent help so if you are willing and able to lend a hand please come and see me. Thank you to Jason Trask for helping us set up a day of fun and competition. The children will be required to wear their P.E. gear. Please also ensure that your child has been smothered in sun block! Children will also need plenty to drink and sun hats are imperative.
We had fun in the pool this week.
Have a lovely week

P.S. If you click the mouse in our fish tank, you will feed the fish!
Awesome, looking forward to the Zoo trip, how exciting for an end of term trip as well.
ReplyDeleteI can't want to go to the zoo. My mum is coming to the zoo with us.
