On Thursday we have a visit from Moya. This was a fabulous opportunity to talk about being safe around dogs we don't know.
Moya was very friendly and gentle with us but all dogs are not like this. We decided that if we wanted to pat a dog we must always ask the owner first. If we see a dog tied up to a tree we should always wait to see their owner first before approaching it.

During P.E. we are concentrating on our catching skills. This is tricky stuff! We are focusing on keeping our eyes on the ball and getting our hands in the correct position.

If you have been into the classroom recently you will have noticed we have sectioned off part of the class for safety reasons. Renwick is in need of some urgent repairs so in the meantime we will be relocating to Renwick 1. This will be a temporary arrangement until the builders have completed the work.

Next week...
Our sounds will be u & l.
Our tricky words will be me & no.
During maths we are working facts about 10 and adding one more.

Next week Ann and I are on a course for Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Caroline will be teaching for these days. I will be returning to school for the parents interviews.

Things to remember....
* Parents Teacher Interviews - Monday to Thursday
* Book Character Dress Up Day - Friday 30th
* Kowhai Shared Kai - Tuesday 3rd April - more details will be sent home in a notice
* Library Day Friday - please help your child remember their library book
* Term ends on Thursday 5th April at 3pm

Thank you for your support,
Have a happy and safe week!
