Dear Parents,
Here is our current timetable for week 5 of term 3. We invite parents to book at time with us to come and share your favourite childhood story with the children one day at 9.15am or 2.30pm.

Please note that specialists are now on Thursdays in the middle session and Tuesday afternoon due to a change of the teacher planning timetable across the school.
Our learning agreement is currently a mixture of provocations related to our Inquiry and our mini Inquiry for Book Week. Our Change inquiry is investigating how we can create positive change through volunteering, with a current focus on discovering what is important to us which in turn helps us identify aspects of our community that we might like to volunteer to support.
Our book week Inquiry is focused on making connections to reading, book reviews, turning yourself into a book character and being interviewed, publishing and illustrating their own stories, and responding to texts in different ways. We have especially loved watching Michael Rosen videos (We're Going on a Bear Hunt and Chocolate Cake) with his great facial and voice expression - he's a great storyteller.
The purple time throughout the week is a rotating workshop that includes a workshop on TIME (interpreting and creating timetables and personal calendars), a workshop on shared reading and writing (currently responding to the emotional connections we make with texts), and a workshop on sharing our reader's and writer's notebook, home readers and borrowing from the main school library.
Fridays are unique and see the children engaging in a maths inquiry into different aspects of time (telling the time, drawing clocks, estimating and measuring the duration of everyday events) with Mark and Kylie and an afternoon of learning agreement, Year One has Talent and time with their Year 6 Buddies.
