Homework Free Zone!

After listening to a couple of speeches last week I have decided to listen to the appeal for no homework.
This term the class has given their best to ensure they are:
  • developing sound habits of mind
  • raising their achievement levels
  • becoming all they can ...
Their speeches have demonstrated their ability to communicate with clarity and precision; their art shows their ability to think flexibly and creatively to try new media and designs; their group work for the Island Survivor activities show they are able to work interdependently; they are learning new maths concepts through applying prior knowledge and building on it to solve everyday problems involving multiplication and division. 
THESE STUDENTS DESERVE A BREAK!
I wish you all a very happy holiday chilling out with your families and friends for the next two weeks.

A special bon voyage to Owen and his family as they travel to Europe for the next five weeks.  We are all looking forward to seeing your photos on the blog Owen.

Speaking of students overseas - Matheus, what are you up to?  How about contacting us. We miss you.

Mrs H

The Room 7 whole school assembly on Friday was a success from the 'Gumboot' song to open through to the trip to Tane's Ark.  I was very proud of the way they all stepped up to the mark and turned on a professional performance - it was enjoyed by all.
