Week 4

Well we're in for a few changes this week for sure but nothing we can't cope with. We're very fortunate having access to the learning centre and the equipment housed there.
Please feel welcome to join us on Wednesday at 12 noon for Ash Wednesday Mass at St Mary's
This week I hope we are able to wrap up our Statistics unit in Maths and begin a new unit on Fractions. Please encourage your child to use the Mathletics programme at home because it is an excellent means of reinforcing the work and learning done at school.
The students enjoyed listening to the way music enhanced the movie Jaws. I hope they will continue to do this when they are watching other movies and videos. I was impressed with the way so many of them were able to identify the many different instruments.
In R.E. we are discussing ' social sin' and the impact the European colonization of New Zealand had upon the Maori peoples and how and why for so many years they felt disenchanted by the failure of the Treaty of Waitangi to live up to its promises.
I hope you all have a wonderful week. I'm sure we'll have many excited children at school tomorrow morning with the prospect of school in a tent!
God Bless
