Reminders for Term 4

Hi all, last day of term today so just a few notices before we go into holiday mode.

• First day back is the 16th of October - Please note , there is an early finish at 1pm for Professional Development.
• Photo orders close on the 18th October.
• School hats are compulsory in Term 4 - these can be purchased from the school office.

I have also sent home a letter today about our Little Garden project. Each student will receive a Little Garden pot to plant and grow over the holidays. It would be nice if they could look after it themselves to learn about what a plant needs as we will be looking at this in term 4. If you like you can also email in pictures of your plants growing over the holidays - or get children to draw a picture of the seedling once it sprouts. My email is Hayley.Williams@Stanleyave.school.nz.

Enjoy the holidays , have fun and stay safe.

Well done Seb & Charlotte!

Here are our fabulous word workers from last week - sorry I'm a little late! Seb has been working extra hard on his list and was very happy to be able to chose a prize and move onto his next list! Keep up the great work guys!!

Great progress Room 5!

These hardworking students have all moved on to a new word list! This list is the one at the back of notebooks. It corresponds with the books students are reading. Students are asked to learn these each week , just for sight recognition, not spelling. Advancing with these lists helps further their reading progress.

Ka Pai guys! Great work!
