Term 4, Week 10

What we have been up to...

Swimming

The Preps did an incredible job last week at swimming! It was a big week for all Preps but they showed great resilience each day. They were all very well behaved and efficient- Mr Smith was very impressed with their punctuality. Well done Preps!

Reading books and Library books

We would very much appreciate if you could please have a look around at home for any LLLL books or Library books that may have escaped their reading satchel and found their way onto your bookshelf or under the couch! We will be starting to sort them out from Wednesday so need them back ASAP. Each classroom has a 'set' of books in each series and we need to make sure that no books are missing from the sets. 

 

On Wednesday the 13th, we will be emptying reading satchels. This means that your child will have received their last 'new' books for the year, this week. Please continue to practise any games you have been sent home once books have been removed. You can also write sentences for your child to practise reading or they can write their own!

 

A3 Zippy Bags

We know that lots of items that are sent home at the end of the year do not have any use at home. We would love to re-purpose the A3 Zippy bags that were used in the classrooms this year. If you would like your child to bring theirs home, please let us know. Otherwise we will make great use of it! 

Upcoming Fortnight

Week 11 and 12

In the last 2 weeks of the year, in Literacy, we will be revising all sounds and heart words that we have learnt so far this term. In Mathematics, we will be revising all of the concepts we have learnt. 

A year in review

Can you believe that our little Preps are now big Preps who are ready for Grade 1? We are so proud of what each and every Prep has achieved this year and can't wait to see what they get up to in Grade 1!
