A few reminders...

Kia Ora Room 12 Whanau!
Hope you are all keeping warm and well as the cold weather creeps in on us!

Here's just a few wee reminders about some things that are happening at the moment =)

Science Alive - Remember that the $5 for this is due by Monday 22nd June. Thank you for the parent helpers who have volunteered, we now have enough.

Spellathon - Well done everyone for your amazing effort with this! I was very proud of hard you all worked. Please remember that the sponsorship money for this is now due. Your child has a copy of their test in their homework book so you know their results. It would be great to have this in as quickly as possible.

Miss Newfield - Miss Newfield has been working hard in Room 12! We have been loving having her. Next Friday will be her last day with us. I know all the children will miss her a lot.

Homework Books - Please make sure your children are bringing these to school everyday. It makes it hard to do things that we need to, when children do not have their books. Also please make sure they are bringing their Poetry Scrap books to school.

A big thank you to those who have already bought the stationery they need. There are quite a few children who are needing new books at the moment, so look out for notes in their homework books.

Keep up the wonderful work!
Miss Newfield and Mrs H


Green Team's Parsley

Last Friday the Green Team picked some of their parsley. Room 12 Green team members are Lucy E and Josh. They bought us back some parsley to try. Some of us liked it and some of us thought it was YUCK!
