This week we will be talking about poppies, peace and Remembrance Day. We have been learning a song about peace. Ask your child to sing it to you. Our focus will be on kindness and how lucky we are to live in such a wonderful country. On Friday, we will be having a special visitor in to give a presentation. He will be dressed in his uniform and will be answering any questions the children may have. We are looking forward to having him come into the classroom.
Next Wednesday, your child will be coming home with their first "report"called the Initial Observation. Interviews will be held the following evening (Thursday, November 16th). An email was sent out last week on how to book an interview online. We hope to meet everyone that night. It's always a great way to talk about your child's transition and progress so far. If you did not get the email regarding booking interviews, please call the school or write a note in your child's communication book. To ensure that we stay on time that night, please knock on the door when it's your time. They are only 10 minute interviews.
With the cold weather moving in, please send your child to school dressed appropriately for the weather. We are outdoors for 30 minutes in the morning, 20 minutes at lunch as well as 15 minutes at the end of the day. Please send in extra socks and a spare set of clothing for your child if they do not have any in the classroom.
This Friday we will be sending the blankets home to be washed. Please send them back on Monday.
Here are some pictures from today:
