Term 2 2015

Term one was an exciting and eventful term seeing our class numbers increase from 7 (who were pre enrolled for the year) to 16 by the end on the term.  We have been very lucky to have welcomed two fabulous teacher trainees, Miss Johnston and Miss McLean in the latter half of the term. Unfortunately they were only with us for a short time so we had to say goodbye to them on the last day of the term and sadly, also to Zachariah who is moving on to another school.  You will be missed by us all Zachariah as you are such a happy and strong personality in our team.


Term two is a long 11 week term with a lot of learning packed in to it.  We will be celebrating ANZAC in our first week finishing with our mufti-day on the Friday to help fundraise for Poppy Day, please make sure you wear your mufti and bring a gold coin to donate to receive a poppy on Friday 24th April.  We are lucky to have some special guests come and visit us where we will begin some hockey skills training run by the Women's Black Stick's team during the term and then later we will also have some representatives from ASB to help teach us all about finances and the importance of saving our pocket money.  Later in the term we will be having the parent/teacher conferences (16th & 17th June) so make sure you keep an eye out for more information and notices about that.

Come in and check out our environment and see why we are called Team Seuss!








On Friday of week 4 (15th May) Team Seuss will be sharing in the running of the school asembly so we would like to invite all friends and family to come along and share in our celebration here.

We have an action packed term of learning ahead as well as continuing to learn our basic facts for maths, our phonics and alphabet for literacy, essential high frequency words for reading and keeping fit with our daily fitness and weekly physical education and health lessons.  We are also learning a lot about reusing, recycling and reducing for our sustainability topic.

Keep checking our blog to find out what we have been up to and what we are learning.  See you at the conferences. :-)
