Important notices:

• Most permission forms have been received for our overnight stay in Lovcen for
Discovery Week. Please do not forget to send in the 35euros. It is only a couple
weeks away now.

Last week in Maths, we enjoyed the sunshine at school and started making simple
maps of our school grounds. We discussed the many purposes of maps and key
vocabulary (perspective, symbols, keys, compasses and scales). Please take notice
of any maps you might see within our local area and their purpose.

Many of the children have also brought in their family trees. This project has driven a
lot of conversation. They have been sharing where members of their family have lived
and making many connections with family names. Thank you greatly for all the
assistance you gave your child/children with these projects!

This week I would like to send home the children’s Identity Boxes, small clay pieces
and any other objects brought in from home for previous units (model buildings, art,
etc.). Some of the children may need a little help carrying their things. If you are
collecting your child from school and have the time and space to assist them then
please come into the classroom after dismissal.

Kind regards, Miss Katrina.
