Possible power outage – We have been notified that
there may be a power outage on Tuesday the 19th of February between 9.15 and 2.15pm. In this instance we would
need to close the school for the day. Our water is pumped to the surface and
requires power. I have been in touch with Genesis who are trying to get this changed
to after 3pm or a Saturday. Update – the lines company is
looking into providing us with a generator for our water. I will update you
again as soon as I know for sure.
Curriculum – Both classes have been setting goals for the term.
The senior students were asked to set 4 goals. - English, Maths, Organisation
and Personal. After identifying their goals they then had to think about how
they would achieve them. Finally they identified how they could assess whether
they had achieved them. The next step is
to share their goals with you.
Homework – The students have homework every night. The seniors
have spelling homework every week. They also have maths homework that should be
done daily. They are brushing up on their times tables. Many students are also
doing very well on the IXL site www.IXL.com .Students can
bring current events discussion starters. This can be from local papers or
radio or TV news. At times the TV news contains graphic scenes and we
understand that you may prefer that your child doesn’t watch the news.
It is important that students
bring their homework books every day so we can monitor the progress and add
tasks. Students should be reading every night – set texts or library books.
Junior students have reading
homework daily and some also have spelling words to learn.
Fundraising Team – Please find attached a Trail
Ride Helpers Form – This is a major fundraiser for our school and has wonderful
potential as a regular spot on the calendar. This year we have it on good
authority that the weather is going to be great.
Please complete the form and
return this week. If you do not fill it in we will put you in where needed.
Thank you in advance from the Fundraising Team.
