Dear Year 1/2 Parents, I hope you are all well. It was nice to have a full week with no days off in between. The week has flown by! At the beginning of the week I started the phonics assessments and I am pleased with the progress the students have made since starting in August. It is always lovely to see them improving. There will be a few changes being made to the phonics groups to ensure the children are reading and learning at a level which is right for them.

Happy Chuseok to you all! We have had a busy week in Year 1/2 with lots of fun learning happening. We started the week with our new unit “Super Humans” in IPC. It was an exciting first lesson with a surprise guest from our wonderful  dentist, Mrs. Nila. Naka’s mum prepared a wonderful lesson for the children. She taught them how to brush their teeth properly and  we had the opportunity to practise flossing our teeth together. The students all got given check-ups and Mrs Nila was very impressed with how well the children had looked after their teeth. At Mrs. Sim – Weekly Update Term 1 Week 4
