Term 1 Week 1 Assembly Certificate

Today we had our first school assembly - in our school hall. For the Room 5 children this is the first school assembly they have attended in our school hall. It was great to be able to start the new school year back in our own space.

Joshua received the first Room 5 certificate of the year.
Ka pai, Joshua and welcome to Christ the King School.

I have had a great first week with the amazing Room 5 children. They have been wonderful at listening and learning the routines of a new classroom. We are in for a great year of fun and learning. 

Looking ahead to Week 2:

Monday: Reading programme starts; we will visit the school library and read with our Room 12 big buddies

Tuesday: Anita from Canterbury Athletics will lead the first of three Run, Jump, Throw sessions. Everyone will need to bring sports shoes to change into at school, and the girls will need to wear shorts under their dresses, which they will take off to participate in the sessions.

Thursday: 7-7:20pm or 7:30-7:50pm Meet the Teacher in Room 5. I will explain the class routines and expectations, how you can help your child's learning and answer any questions you may have. 

Friday: Spelling Test - the children will be tested on Lists 1-5 (they were given these today). Our spelling programme will then start in Week 3. 12md School Assembly in the school hall.

Enjoy your weekend. See you all on Monday.
