Using the new i-pads to check our spelling



Term 2 begins!!!

Welcome back for another wonderful term in Room 8.

We had a great day today with everyone wearing big smiles all day. 

We quickly got into reading our non-fiction article and showed that we have good understanding of what we are reading - we are experts on Huhu grubs now!!!!

In RE we are learning about the Holy Spirit and how we should be showing that we are making good choices.

Some fantastic oral language finished off the day - not surprisingly the children found it very easy to talk for 30 seconds on subjects such as bananas, leaves and cats!!!

Don't forget Cross-country on Thursday.  Jacqui Restieaux was looking for a few more parents to help out on the course.  You are able to watch your own child and then help with the other teams.  Any volunteers give your names to Mrs McDowell to pass on.
