Thank you so much to Lauren, Christine and Regina for accompanying us on our river monitoring trip last week. We were all so excited about our learning outside the classroom. I will post photos separately of us at this activity. I need to borrow back the Room 7 i-pads.
What excellent learning the staff did on Friday and Saturday. I feel really committed to the restorative practice that we are operating in our school - building and repairing relationships. So good to be together as a staff team with a shared understanding. The Saturday was spent with the experienced international presenter discussing our school process and excellent collaborative learning was done by all of us. I will be using some of my new learning to start the new term as our inquiry theme moves from 'Belonging' into "Living in Harmony".
Kapahaka Festival: Congratulations to those people who represented St Gerards at this event. We all felt so proud of you all as you put our school right up there with the best. I was busy so didn't take photos, but would love someone who did to email a couple so that I can add them to the blog or school newsletter. Girls, a reminder that dresses need to be returned in your named bag by Tuesday.
Scripture Reading Eisteddfods: well done to those people who have presented already. It is clear that there has been excellent preparation. For those still to present, don't forget to share your introduction as this is worth 5 marks. I will post the names of those people presenting at the Thursday afternoon eisteddfod assembly at 1:30 in the church as soon as we have heard everyone. Names will also be in the school newsletter.
Wednesday Mass 9am will be lead by Room 7. Please join us to celebrate the special events of Holy Week.
Thursday lunch: families are invited to join us for lunch before the eisteddfods. Sausage orders to the office by 9am please.
Recipe Book Recipes: every child has received a hard copy paper for recipes to be written on. Kiwi house please make sure that you have your recipes at school by Wednesday. We can do it!!!!. Recipes can also be sent to recipebook@stgerards.school.nz
Homework
