Dear KG2 Families,

It is difficult to believe that we have completed two terms already. Please remember that your child’s report card will be released electronically today. You will receive a notification email from ManageBac.

This week we continued with our routines. In Literacy, our focus was on ideas. This week’s writing prompt was “Our Favourite Place to Play”. Our little learners beautifully illustrated their ideas and then attempted to label them. 

In Mathematics, we are still working on the first steps of building a strong understanding of subtraction as well as supporting children’s learning and understanding using songs. Our favourite song this week was “Alice the Camel”. We enjoyed singing it almost every morning this week.

We have also introduced a new routine this week where a child becomes the ‘greeter’ and teacher helper for the day. Please click here to see some videos and pictures of this routine.

We also enjoyed having a guess reader this week. Tetewa from our Secondary School shared a book with our little learners.

Thank you to those who returned their child’s field trip permission slips and to those who volunteered to join us for our upcoming adventure. More information about this to follow next week.

Sharing the weekly update with the families through pictures is a great way to visually showcase the activities and experiences the children engage with at school. Please enjoy seeing your child in action. Click here to see more photos from our busy week.

Have a lovely and restful weekend.

Warm regards,

Mrs Nicholson and Ms Haifa
