Updates for the coming weeks!!

Hello parents & caregivers,

Thanks again for your support in your child's learning journey. Thanks for always being so amazing in helping me with the necessary help when ever needed. I feel so privileged to work along side with such dedicated parents.

Coming to the news: This week is week 8. On Monday I have promised my lovely students that we will have a Class Picnic. There is a reason behind it. In Term 3 for our Topic we learnt about " Growing"  "Garden to Table"as this connected to our previous Topic " God's Planet" " How do we take care of it"? So, towards the end of Term 3 when the weather was just right we set out into our A Pod garden.  We planted some Pea & Bean plants. We cared for them everyday. The students experienced the whole cycle. "Life cycle of a Bean & Pea Plant". It was a good experience for them to see the seed germinate to a young plant. 

InTerm 4 our Topic is " Celebrations".  The students have learnt that when there is a new produce people always Celebrated & gave thanks to God for the gift of food. 

On Monday is our Celebration Day" Garden to Table" day. We will be harvesting our produce from the garden and eating along with the salad that we as a class will make.Hence, I have a request if you could supply the following items for our Class picnic:

1. Cocktail Sausage 

2. Salad dressing

3.Salad mix

4. Small buns

5. Fruits for Fruit Salad

Please do not send lots of them if each of the student can bring some that should be enough for the whole class to enjoy. 

I want the students to experience working in the kitchen and having a go at peeling, grating, cutting with a child friendly knife. They will really have a BLAST I know for sure. They are so EXCITED!!!!



If you do have any quires please let me know. 

Thanks again, I hope this is not too much.

I will share the pics of my class working in the garden digging, planting. watering, weeding and harvesting soon.

PS: More exciting  news will be posted soon ....

Mrs. Joseph

Welcome Back to Term 2!!!!

Hello parents & caregivers, Tomorrow is the first day of Term 2 back to school, but this time it's not going to regular school instead it's online learning. It's going to be so much fun learning from the comfort of your house and missing out all that friends time. Your child should have been logged by now with the password that I had shared with all. The students will follow a time table that has been shared in A1 Google Classroom. Please do free to ask questions?

Hello A1 students, Today is another day special day during the Holy Week. It is called as Holy Monday when Jesus cleanses the Temple God. Please watch the video and then read the passage from the Gospel and retell the the whole event in your own words.  https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/bible-videos/videos/jesus-cleanses-the-temple?lang=eng Jesus Cleanses the Temple 13  The Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus  went up to Jerusalem.   14  In the temple he found those who were selling oxen and sheep and pigeons, and the money-changers sitting there.   15  And making a whip of cords, he drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and oxen. And he poured out the coins of the money-changers and overturned their tables.   16  And he told those who sold the pigeons,  “Take these things away; do not make  my Father's house a house of trade.”   17  His disciples remembered that it was written,  “Zeal f...

Kia ora & greeting to all parents and caregivers,  Welcome to A1's blog. I hope your lovely children would have come home and informed you about the blog. Apologies to all the parents who couldn't reach the blog. The blog will be the place where you will find all the information about A1's learning. Would like to thank all the parents who sent in the stationary in week 1. Almost all the students brought in their stationary except for 4. A1 was one of the classes that was chosen for having nearly 100% stationary. A newsletter was sent home giving all the details about Term 1's learning. Week 4 is a special day  "meet the teacher evening". Please keep yourself free as I'm very keen to meet every single parent. "Success is not the work of one but the work of many". This is our school whakatauki. Let's work together for the success of our children. I'm aiming for  100% attendance  as our class will get a treat from Mr. Piper. Ple...
