Hello Families,

I wanted to start this weekly message by saying a big thank you and well done to each family. This is certainly a very trying and testing time for us all however the Prep S family, of which we are all part of, is doing an amazing job of guiding our children and providing them with wonderful learning opportunities.

As we approach the final weeks of term, Week 8 will be one to reinvigorate Prep children before the final push to holidays. I really appreciate the conversations I have had with some families in the past weeks about how the children are travelling at the moment. As I said last week we always expect motivation levels to wane towards the end of term 3 and especially in the current circumstances. It is wonderful to see Prep S students excitedly sharing their Show and Tell each morning and we are lucky to have some Year 6 children join our morning meets to say hello too. Well done to the children who have started entering the ‘Spoonville’ competition. I love seeing these pictures on Seesaw but please remember to enter you need to follow the procedures on the Art Blog.

I have included next weeks timetable below. Prep teachers are very excited for our ‘Magic School Bus’ week! Children will accompany us on adventures around Victoria and Australia next week as we continue our learning of animals and living things.

For Maths next week children will have the opportunity to create and learn some of their own maths games! We hope children enjoy this and are able to get many hours of enjoyment and learning from their games in the afternoons or weekends!

Finally I wish you all a lovely weekend with some wonderful weather expected.

Kind Regards,

Katrina
