Kia Ora,
Welcome to a new year in Ruma Pukeko! Whaea Billie is excited to be teaching at Hokitika Primary School. We have already had a fantastic start to the year doing a lot of collaborative artwork. Some reminders and notices:
Books:
Children will change their books from the browsing box each day. They will also bring home an additional book each Thursday which they have been reading throughout the week and will be eager to share with you at home. It is strongly encouraged to read to your child as much as possible as this supports them in learning new words which helps with their oral language, reading and writing.
Homework:
Each Friday children will be given homework. They will have till the following week to complete their homework. They are currently receiving a list of 5-7 spelling words each week to learn. From week 7 they will also be given some maths homework as well to be completed and returned by each Friday.
Swimming:
Ruma Pukeko will be swimming Monday- Thursday 11:15- 11:50
If you have any questions/concerns make sure to let me know so we can work together to sort them out!
