Hello Families,

The day has arrived! The last day of term.

I wanted to thank you all for the magnificent effort and support you have given both your children and us as Prep teachers throughout the term. From logging our little learners on their very ‘grown up’ google meetings, your patience when technology hasn’t been our friend and your lovely feedback, emails and phone calls- we appreciate it all more than we can say. It has been a very different term but a hugely successful one.

To celebrate the end of term, a reminder that tomorrow is Footy Colours Day! Children may wear a football, soccer or NRL themed top or scarf or casual clothes in the colour of their favourite team.

Kind regards,
Katrina Taylor

Hello Prep S Families,

Once again a big thank you for efforts and support this week. We are nearing the end of term and I think the school holidays will be a much needed break for both children and families.

I have really enjoyed meeting 1:1 with children this week. The children all had a lot to say and many stories to tell.  It was so lovely to get the time to chat. Next week I will again meet with children, with a focus on Reading.

Below is the Week 10 timetable that includes some minor changes from last week.

To celebrate the end of Term 3, next Friday will be Prep Footy Colours Day! Children may wear the colours from their chosen football, soccer, NRL team, scarves or jumpers.

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend,

Katrina.

Hello Prep Families,

I hope Prep S children enjoyed our special ‘Magic School Bus’ week and virtual excursions. I hope it was just the week of fun and learning the children needed to reinvigorate themselves as we prepare for the last two weeks of term and the final push to school holidays. The Prep team have received some beautiful emails this week with very kind feedback. It is very much appreciated!

Thank you again for another week. Term 3 is always a time of big developments in the learning of Prep children and it is so lovely to see that this year is no different! Prep teachers are beginning to plan some wonderful learning opportunities for Term 4 and we can’t wait to share these experiences with the children.

Below is the timetable for Week 9, as well as another copy of the 1:1 student/ teacher check-ins timetable. We ask that children are on time but not logged in early so as not disrupt other children’s check-ins. 9am Check-ins will still run next week, as will normal learning presented on the blog space.

Please note Friday 11th September is a Prep “Animal Themed Dress Up day!”. Children can wear an  animal themed costume to their meets and learning on this day. We do stress that it is not necessary to source or make a new costume. Children can bring an animal toy to the meet as an alteranative if they wish.

I wish everyone a wonderful weekend and a Happy Father’s Day to all the Dads.

Kind Regards,

Katrina 🙂

Dear Prep S Families,

During Week 9 (Monday 7th Sept- Friday 11th Sept), Prep teachers will be timetabling half hour “check- ins” with each child in lieu of our Reading and Maths focus groups. 

We have tried where possible to timetable these check- ins on the same day as your child’s regular reading group. It would be helpful if children could please wear headphones and have their Remote Learning Pack on hand.

Please refer to the timetable below to see your child’s scheduled time slot. 

Check- in code is: preps

We kindly ask that children do not log into their meet before scheduled their time, so as not to interrupt the check-in of the child prior.

We look forward to having a chat and a catch up with children!

Kind regards,

Katrina Taylor
