Week 1 Term 4


Manuka have been bringing home some maths flash cards each day. Please keep these in their home folders as they work with a buddy each day at school on these to help achieve their goals. Once they have become very fast at instantly recalling their cards they will be replaced with a new set of knowledge goals. This is to replace the basic facts that were pasted in the homework books last term. Thanks for your support with helping them to work on these. Certificates: Charlotte and Corban for showing great integrity skills - always doing the right thing at the right time, and Tayla and Rani for having such a great start to their school days. Kapai! Kia Ora to Hamish McKenzie who joined us this week in Manuka - welcome to our happy team. 

Aimee wrote this fantastic story last week - we love her interesting words that make her story so exciting to read.
One time we played Ratatouille. I had lots of fun! We were having a long time on the play station then my sister or mum said the chips are here. We went down the stairs. Thump, thump, thump, thump! We got some chips - crunch, crunch, crunch, crunch. We went back up the steps - thump, thump, thump, thump, thump, thump! We went back and played Ratatouille for a long time again. Then my mum said "Tea time!" We went down the stairs again. We had tea. We put our pyjamas on. Mum quietly tiptoed in Jacinta's room and got my mattress. I tried to find my favourite Lion in Jacinta's room. We went to bed.

Here we all are on the way to assembly last Friday - holding hands and taking shelter from a flash hail storm!
