Week 6 Term 3

Dear Parents, 

Just a few bits of information for tomorrow and next week: 

Athletics Carnival

Tomorrow is our annual athletics carnival, kicking off around 9.15. You will have received an email from admin with the schedule for the day.  Please also read below other information sent from admin earlier this morning in regards to the day.  I also asked the students to have a bit of a clean out of their school bags this evening as we take them down to the oval for the day to hold their jumpers, lunchboxes and water bottles - and clearly name everything especially food containers, jumpers and hats! Students can bring teddies decorated in team colours but they will be responsible for looking after them for the day.  Students can also have coloured hair/zinc but I ask if you could do this before school at home rather than outside the class.  I'm very excited to join in the fun and looking forward to a great day tomorrow! 



Open Evening

Tomorrow will also be our open evening.  The students will have work displayed around the room as well as a few samples on their desks to show.  If you are available, please drop in for a look.  To save you needing to go home and come back again, we will open the Year 1 classrooms once the carnival is finished and cleaned up, hopefully around 3.15 and remain open until 5.30.  Your child's writing books, dictation books and term three scrapbooks will be on their desks.  If you cannot make it feel free to pop in any morning or afternoon as we just keep these in their individual trays.  



Assembly

We have been busy practising our song and poem for our perfomance assembly which will be next Friday.  Please read through previous blog post about costume and assistance dressing students before the big show at 2.10.  Of course, everyone is welcome to watch and enjoy our little rockers performing and we will put up a copy on the blog for those that cannot attend.  Please let me know if you have any questions at all.  


Seesaw  

Thank you to those families that have connected to the Seesaw families app since the start of the term. If you need another copy of the link or code, please let me know and I can email it to you.  This is a part of our formal reporting process and we will have four different samples of work and learning uploaded for you to see by the end of this week.


Homework 

No homework for the remainder of this week but please send in folders tomorrow for us to collect and update with new grids and spelling words to start the fortnightly cycle again on Monday.  We do encourage you to continue reading with your child this week with any books you have at home or using the Reading Eggs online library.

Welcome to Year 1K for 2021

Hello and welcome to the 1K blog!  We hope you have all had a relaxing and peaceful holiday and enjoyed some of this beautiful summer weather!  We am looking forward to getting to know your beautiful children and working with you throughout your child's learning journey this year. Year One is a favourite year to teach for both of us - we've both taught it for at least five years each and are very excited to be back for another year in the land of Year One.  It  is a big, but exciting year where your child will, discover, grow, create, learn, reflect and experience an abundance of fun and interesting things in our class!   This year your child is lucky to have two class teachers!  Mrs Penny King will be teaching Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday and Mrs Gemma Sorgiovanni will be teaching on Thursdays.  You are able to contact either of us anytime throughout the week via email and we communicate daily with each other.    As a parent of a Year One student, it is extremely impo

Week 1 Term 3 2022

 Dear Parents,  Welcome back to Week One. I hope you had a lovely holiday and managed to get some sun on a few winter days (or stay inside with all this rain!).  I hope you all managed to have some rest and relaxation over the last two weeks. We are getting ready for a massive Term Three ahead and cannot wait to get into all the fun learning that will be happening over the next few weeks! Dance with Mrs. Haines This semester, our class will be participating in dance every Monday for the Year 1s.  This happy news means that students will now wear sports uniforms on Monday as well as Thursdays and Fridays every week for the rest of the year. . I am so excited to see the movers and groovers in our class for the end of year concert. I will send out a text as well so that students are prepared for the uniform change tomorrow but if they days are ever mixed up please don't worry about it too much as they won't be excluded or miss out.   Assembly Assemblies are back and we are current

Week 2 Term 4 2021

 Dear Parents, After some lovely extra time off with family time up north, I was straight back into it last week and can't thank Mrs Sorgiovanni enough for her teaching over the last couple of weeks.  The students have grown so much over only a month and I am so proud of such confident, responsible and kind students we have in 1C.  Knowing we have such amazing students and teachers at OLC makes working here a blessing and not too rough to get back into things after a month of sunshine and exploring all over our state.  Well here we go into Week Three of the last term of Year 1!  We weclome Arlo S. this week too to join our 1K team so please make him and his parents feel welcome. Some big news too is that on Friday our class offered last minute to lead the Grandparents Day assembly as our prayer assembly.  We only have the week to prepare and rehearse but as we all know, 1K have amazing performance skills and we are sure to succeed and impress when we lead the assembly this Friday a
