Highlight 

Selamat siang!

A highlight of week 4 has been our whole class phonograms or codes lessons. Students have the opportunity to hear, say, read and write the phonograms and use them to practise their spelling. These lessons are also a great opportunity for students to practise their handwriting, in particular focusing on their letter sizing, formation and sitting their letters on the baseline. Next week, mixed groups will be made between all of the 1/2 classes to allow students to practise the codes that they need to learn. 

We hope you have had a great week,

Emma, Suzie, Miss Shaye, Amanda, Miss Emmett, Kate and Mrs Seadon.

Reminders

• Please make sure your child brings a hat to school in Term 1. 
• If you could send in a box of tissues with your child that would be appreciated. These get used throughout the year by their class. 
• Students are particularly hungry during the first few weeks of school. Please send some additional fruit/healthy snacks for them to enjoy during the day.
