What a fabulous week of warm weather we have had, it makes us all feel so much more energetic. Please ensure you have a named school sun hat for your child. See the office if you have not yet bought one. Every child needs a water bottle every day.
The children have been busy learning about caring for our pets over the last two weeks. Marjorie Orr from the SPCA came to visit all the classes with her big dogs Kudos and Ralph and the children were able to learn their life story. We talked about stand tall and still like a tree or get low, lie like a log if a dog comes up to you.
Now we are beginning our Inquiry about structures. Our first focus is to examine what a structure is. Some classes are building structures using lego, blocks or boxes. Keep talking to your child about what they are learning in their class.
Room 9 are having a turn over the next two weeks in the Makerspace with Pip Dick. Then Room 7 in weeks 5 and 6 and finally Room 10 in weeks 7 and 8. Room 11 will be split between these classes so they too can have a turn.
Room's 7 and 8 currently have student teachers in their rooms for 3 weeks. Mrs Gemma Matsopoulos Room 8 and Miss Mary Ainsworth Room 7. We welcome them to Kaikorai Primary.
