We are practicing for our Christmas Show Prickly Hay which is on Thursday December 21st. There is also a show for the other students on Wednesday 20th. There are a few options for costumes – a cowboy, cowgirl or an angel. They will need to wear the costume to school on that Wednesday and Thursday.

We hope to have a doctor visit us this week. We will be completing some tests so please sign and return those if you see them. There will be no homework next week. So thank you for your support this year. The children have worked really hard. From Margaret and I, we hope you have a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year

Aistear Theme: The Doctor

Grow in Love:There is usually an activity to be completed in it each week.

Super Troopers:We are on Green Week 3. There are some fun activities to try at home.

Word Wallets/Tools for school: Please ensure that your child has all the sounds/names/tools.

1. Jolly Phonics Ask the children to make a word or words using the sounds (green cards) they already have. This week we are working on words that contain the “th” sound.

quiz, quick, quack, queen, quilt, squeeze, squirrel, quit, squid & quest

2. Make sure to use the correct “qu” sound and not the “q” and “u”

Sight Words: Match, say, make a sentence. Seniors are learning and 1st are revising tricky words 1.
