Room 4 Newsletter
Term 2 Week 2 (May 8 - 12)
Friday Extra-curricular Activities
Outside tutors offer paid Art, Kung Fu and Dance classes on Fridays during the school day. If you wish your child to take part in these you can arrange payment with the tutor. These are not school-run activities. Wilbyn at the office may have more information on the costs of these classes.
Prime Maths Workbooks
Thanks to those who have paid for the Prime Maths books. Just a reminder that everyone should have paid the $11 for this workbook by now. I emailed last week if you had not paid.
Road Safety Week
Next week is Road Safety week. This is a timely reminder to ensure we are doing everything we can to keep our roads and children safe. Please ensure you do not park or stop on the yellow lines or in driveways. Also, please make sure you and your child use the crossing on Willoughby Ave. Willoughby Ave gets very busy before and after school and it is unsafe to not use the crossing. Please set a good example for your children by following the rules and keeping yourself and others safe.
Poster Competition
As part of this, Miss Robertson is holding a poster competition, which the Travelwise leaders will judge. The posters will be centred around encouraging people to take responsibility for their own, and others’, safety on the road. Drivers and pedestrians are encouraged to look out for each other while using the road and we encourage everyone to remind their peers and community to be safe. These posters can be done at home. One winner will be chosen per year group and their posters will be displayed around the school. They will also receive a small prize. The winners will be announced at assembly next week.
Yummy Stickers
If you buy fruit that have Yummy stickers on them, save these and send them to school. We can get free sports equipment with these. If you would like a sheet to keep at home until it's full or take to work, let me know and I'll send one home.
Chinese Students
Six students from our sister school, Lugu Valley School in China, are spending a week at HPS next week. We will have two of these students in our room - Xinju and Yaxuan.
Blog
There are some photos from the Retro Mufti on the class blog too.
