Week 6 Term 1 Memos
Week Six is the halfway point of the term. Plenty of things have been done with even more to do. Here are the key points ahead:
Canberra Camp Commitment Forms:
We need these back ASAP. Given the smaller number of students in Year 6 this year, it is crucial that we have a pretty precise idea of the numbers attending. This will allow Us to move forward with our planning and budgets.
Thank you for those who have returned the forms already and have put their hand up offering assistance.
Spelling:
This week is prefixes for 7, 8, 9
There are some cracking words on the base list this week and some with some interesting histories.
Well-being:
Unit of Inquiry, Christian Studies and other subject areas have been tapping into this idea of what is well-being and what we can do about our own well-being. Don’t be afraid to ask. The kids some questions.
