The First Week of School

Good day all,

This first week of school has gone by very quickly and I'm thinking alot of you are getting into the groove of things. :) I have some updates for you.

Books
Firstly, the issue of books. Quite a number of the books that we need this year are sold out at the bookshop. We've made arrangements with the bookshop and they have already made orders for more. I know a few of you have not been able to buy a complete set so no pressure. :) The new stock should be in the bookstore within the next 2 weeks. In the mean time those who have not purchased their books will receive either photocopied worksheets or you can share with a friend in class.

Files
We have decided that the class ring file colours will be:

• Blue - English
• Green - Science
• Yellow - Maths

If you have files that you used last year please recycle them and use them this year as well. :) Let's be green. Also if you have not purchased a coloured ring file of these colours but have another coloured ring file you can use that one instead. Just make sure you label it clearly.

Class Work
The spelling list was given to you today so please keep it well. :) Class voting has fixed the Spelling day for every Friday of the week so as not to clash with Mother Tongue Spelling which is on Thursday.

CCAs
Today was the first day of CCAs and one thing that alot of the CCAs might have done today would have been target setting using the 'GROW ME' model on pages 24 and 25 of the student handbook.

If this was not done today however don't panic. :) The CCA teachers of each of the CCAs have their own plans for doing this with you.

Have a Great Weekend! :D
