Foundation News ~ Preps

The Preps have been working hard on writing simple sentences using a who, action and object. We are also learning when to use capital letters, including at the beginning of a sentence and for people's names.

To help us become independent writers, we use a writing checklist to check that we have written what we wanted to say, included a capital letter at the beginning of the sentence (and for names), left spaces between words, and finished our sentence with a full stop. We are so proud of the progress the students are making as they grow in confidence as writers!

St Mel's Breaky Club:

Come for breaky… second breakfast… or even third breakfast — all are welcome!

Our new Foundation students enjoyed trying out Breakfast Club for the first time and it’s safe to say they absolutely loved it! There were smiles, full tummies and a wonderful sense of community to start the day.

Breakfast Club is a beautiful way to gather, connect and ensure everyone begins the morning feeling nourished and ready to learn.

We look forward to welcoming more students as we continue to grow this special initiative.
