Sarah’s Class Week 9 Term 4

Hi Everyone,

Short n sweet: Thankyou’s to Meg (teacher) and Sarah D for looking after the group while I was away for a few days this week. Thankyou also to Jennifer (Lexi’s mum) for supporting the children at the pool on Tuesday. Sounds like the days ran mostly smoothly. This week our group were joined by some of Wendy’s who didn’t go to Jervis Bay camp. They were given a list of things to go on with but they also joined in the planned activities. We had our final visit to the library, our final visit to the pool and our final lessons in Drama and Spanish. Reports from the above said teachers and children were that project presentations went really well with all but 1 presentation complete. I was sorry to have missed them. We had a lovely day on Thursday, card making. We talked about the gift of giving and looked at different ways to make cards.

Our final days next week will start on Monday with orientation morning. The school will welcome Meg Shaw as our new teacher (replacing Vinnie) along with some new families and children joining the school too. Tuesday we go to the beach for the day and will travel there and back on buses. Obviously, children will need all the usual sun, sea, sand and beach gear including a wide brimmed hat!!

A reminder regarding Kris Kringle gifts: These need to be in for Wednesday, 18th which is our last day together. The children have voted to go up the street to buy their lunch on this day and watch a movie. We will probably watch the Percy Jackson movie voted on for camp as we didn’t get to watch it due to the lack of internet on the farm.

There will be 1 final newsletter entry next week so I will save my farewells till then.

Wishing you all a safe and happy holiday!

Love, Sarah
