Hi Room 6 and Mr McNaughten,
It's great to see that dressing up in crazy costumes happens at every school. We have had two dress up days already this year at Matakana School and are going to have a crazy hair day for Child Cancer to help raise money next term.
Best wishes for all those tests coming up and for Mr McNaughten's operation.
Kind regards from
Mrs Morgan (Room 10 Matakana School)

PS. WE are setting up a class blog and I will forward the address shortly.

Room 6 Tomarata School News/Notes/Comments

Hello Parents/Caregivers and families,

Hi everyone. The year is flying by...

It has been a very busy time for Room 6. We have farewelled Michelle Carmichael last week. She is a 3rd year teaching student from Auckland University. During the first 4 weeks of Term 3, Michelle had full control of the class and did a terrific job. The class adjusted well to her slightly different teaching style and routine and enabled her to learn and develop as a teacher.

We have a focus on Electricity this term - safety, generation, usage, sustainability and we will be looking and circuits and making are own circuits to insert into games the children will be developing.

Term 4 will have the theme of "Risk, Safety, and Response". We will look at a wide range of things from 1st Aid and Fire Safety to involving the students in assessing the risks different activities may pose at Camp.

Speaking of Camp, this will be held during the week 12-16 November at Marsden Point Christian Camp, One Tree Point. We are busy planning and preparing. Whilst some costs are still to be finalised, we have indicated in newsletters the cost will be approx $120 per student. Further details will follow in due course.

The enrolment process for the transition to Rodney College has begun. Interviews are coming up and testing for Year 8s will occur in Term 4.

Term 4 also sees Inter-school cross country and cricket. I am in the process of arranging some coaching sessions with Northland Cricket early in Term 4 - watch this space.

Show Day is the first Friday back after the October school holidays. All students in Room 6 are expected to participate and contribute - I would like to see either a lamb/calf, a garden, a pet, or sculpture from as many students as possible. All students will be required to make as many indoor exhibits as possible. It is much more fun for the students if they join in fully.

Take care.

GPM
