Week 2 Newsletter


Welcome to week 2 in Room 19. I am very pleased with the way everyone has quickly settled into their new room and new routines. The Class contact list will be on the round table this week. Don’t forget to add your details if you want a copy next week.
Stationery
Thank you for your assistance in organising stationery so promptly. It is a big help when everyone has the correct equipment at school. You help in ensuring that they have sharp pencils and a pen on hand each morning would also be appreciated.
Reading
This week will see the start of group reading. The children will be bringing home books and/or their poetry book Monday through Thursday. The reader may be a new one or one they have selected from their browsing box. Readers may be kept for the whole week and we encourage the repeated reading of the books, along with books from your own collections at home. Readers need to be returned to the box on the round table on Friday mornings and poetry books placed in the poetry book box under the whiteboard.
Swimming
A notice about swimming at Aquagym was sent home last week. Please return these as soon as possible. Replacement notices can be requested at the office if the original has gone astray.
Assembly
The Year 2 assembly will be held in Room 1 on Friday and you are welcome to attend. You will be contacted if your child is receiving a certificate.
2013 Class Blog
Our new blog is set up and will shortly be accessible from the St Albans website. In the meantime I will double post notices on last year’s blog (See the Year 3 Team) or you may access the 2013 blog directly at
Please complete the Family Information form as soon as possible. We are learning about the Room 19 Butterfly Garden this week. Have you checked out the link to the Monarch Butterfly NZ Trust on the sidebar yet?
Baby Photos
Remember to bring a photo for the competition starting next week. Alternatively a digital image can be emailed directly to me at
