Next week, we will discuss our home reading program with students, which will play a vital part in each child’s reading development and the partnership between home and school. Children will select from a band of texts that will provide some easy and instructional texts, as well as some texts that may provide a little challenge for your child. We ask that you listen to your child read, talk about the book and make a note in their home reading diary at least 4 times each week. We thank you in advance for your support with this program. We look forward to meeting with you at our first Learning Conversations in Week 4.

Kind regards,

Milly, Natalie, Ashlee, Laura, Gabrielle & Cherise
