Tēnā koutou e te iwi, Structured Literacy This year our staff are participating in professional learning in Structured Literacy. Structured Literacy is an evidence based approach that is grounded in the Science of Reading. Over the last two terms our focus has been spelling and next term we will be focusing on reading. This is across all year levels and classrooms. We have partnered with Learning Matters and next term Marion Kirby, our facilitator, will be hosting a whānau evening to share with you the Structured Literacy approach. Please look out for upcoming information in future newsletters. Pedestrian and Cycling Improvements on Grenada Street I have had two meetings with the council around exciting planned improvements for our whānau and children walking and biking to school. These changes will improve the safety of our tamariki and community to and from school. Keep a lookout on our facebook page and our next newsletter for more details and your chance to provide your feedback. Lost Property Next week the lost property will be put out on to the Verandah by the Taj and Room 11. If you have lost uniform or other clothing this term, come and take a look. Road Safety Our tamariki in akomanga 13 have been noticing some concerning things while out on Road Patrol. Please see what they have to say below. |
