Terrific 2 

Term 1 Week 2 2025 -  Friday 7th February

 

 

What have we been up to? 

We are excited to welcome you and your child to the new school year at Le Page Primary School! It’s been a great start, and we have been busy getting our classroom ready for an exciting year of learning and growth.

 

Leader in Me Lessons

During our first week, we focused on our Leader in Me lessons to set up our classroom environment. This program helps students develop important leadership skills, and we’ve already seen great enthusiasm. Each student has chosen a leadership role for the term, which encourages them to take responsibility and contribute positively to our classroom community. In addition, the students have identified their Personal and Academic WIGs (Wildly Important Goals) that they will focus on throughout the term to help them grow both as learners and individuals.

 

Creating Our Personal Mission Statements

 As part of our leadership work, the students also created their own Personal Mission Statement. This is a meaningful activity where each child reflects on their values, goals, and the kind of person they want to be. We’re excited to see how their mission statements will guide them through the year!

 

Specialist Programs and Classroom Lessons

This week, students have begun their specialist programs as well as our regular classroom lessons. We are diving into some exciting subjects, and we can’t wait to share all the wonderful things your child will learn and achieve.

 

In Literacy, we’ve been focusing on phonics, handwriting, and our author study of Nick Bland, particularly exploring his book The Cranky Bear.

 

In Maths, we’ve begun learning how to represent numbers up to 100, using whiteboards and manipulatives to support our understanding.

 

 

Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or would like to discuss your child’s progress.

Thank you for your support, Kayla Mugford Hannah Jackson Sam Downs
