Our first week back at school for the year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It was a real pleasure working with the Grade 6 students this week. This past week was a great week of learning engagements designed to help us get to know each other and re establish positive learning routines. Among other things, this week saw students thinking critically about setting up our essential agreements as a class and looking at how we as a grade 6 learning community will strive to make the class a positive, inclusive, challenging, supportive learning environment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This week our learners also &#8216;Tuned&#8217; into our first Unit Of Inquiry about &#8216;Who We Are&#8217; as well as learning to develop a growth mindset, working together as a team,\u00a0 solving a few puzzles and having a few laughs. This week, students have joined in their first specialist subjects, Music, PSPE and Art and are getting to know their teachers and what they will be doing in these classes this year.\u00a0 For more information about what learning took place and what we did this week, please ask your children to explain; they are a great source of knowledge and talking about what they have done only helps to solidify their learning.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Please see the link below to see a review of this week in pictures. These\u00a0 images can be a starting point for some interesting conversations as you talk with your children about all they have done this week.\u00a0 I am sure they will be very happy to share the details with you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/drive\/folders\/1JLYhVTMIRgaLFRdHA5oY0jzdaU75rgKY\"><b>Grade 6 in pictures: 2022 2023 Week 1<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>Upcoming events\/dates:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Swimming<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> begins Sunday the 11th (next week) please remind students to be prepared.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Parent information evening<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> &#8211; Wed, Sept 7th &#8211; Please refer to the News Flash for more information about this<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Primary <\/span><b>Parent\u2019s coffee<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> &#8211; Thu Sept 15th\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">*Dates are subject to change\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Things to bring to school:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Hats<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> (to leave at school. \u2018No hat, no play\u2019) and<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Water bottles<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> so they can play outside.
