WELCOME TO TERM 4!!!

Hi everyone! Term 4 is here already! We have got so much going on in Term 4; it's going to be a SUPER busy time...

Maths Homework:

Mrs de Jong has had a lot of excited Room 8 students coming up to her with news that they are having LOTS of success with learning their Basic Facts at home - GOOD ON YOU!!!! The first test round will be Friday 23rd October. 

There are sure to be a LOT of people going up to the next level, with the amount of hard work that's being done at home.

YOU DESERVE THE SUCCESS YOU GET!  

Topic:

This term we will be looking at Light - 
a) in the scientific sense
b) in the cultural/traditional sense
c) and the light WITHIN US (what are our qualities that makes us "shine"?)

We're going to do a selection of very cool rotation activities in other classes in Week 2, and then choose an area of light we would like to learn more about, while shining our own special light within us...

Spring Fair: 

October 31^st 2015

11am – 3pm

Only 2 weeks to go!!!  

We have started to receive donations of Jolly Jars for our stall -  THANK YOU!!!  It would be fantastic if we could receive so many that Mrs deJong will have to clear ANOTHER shelf of her cupboard to fit them in!!

Remember, you could make them with any sort of theme...  Halloween, Christmas, Boy/Girl, Craft, Sports, Babies, Weddings... use your imagination! (Google is a great help, too!)

We would very much appreciate any help we could get with manning our stall on the day...do you think you could spare an hour?
There is a chart up on the window in Room 8 with time slots on it - please feel free to pop in and put your name down...Thank you; it would help our day to run smoothly. 
We are also on the lookout for a marquee/gazebo to run our stall from - would anybody be able to help out with this?  There must be some awesome family out there who wouldn't mind helping us out with one!
