Term 1 Week 6

Hello everyone,

Well Clipsal is over and a BIG thank you to all our parent helpers. It was wonderful to have you along for the day. The boys loved Clipsal and thoroughly enjoyed walking around with you and taking in all the wonderful sights.

Chapel
This week the boys in 3S will be rehearsing for our Chapel service which is this Friday (9th of March). If you are free and would like to come along to the service it will be in the Chapel at 8:50am approx.

Our theme for the service is Education - Thinking Globally and Acting Locally.
I have already shown the boys a youtube clip by Sarah McLachlan called 'World on Fire'. The link follows:

This clip shows the allocation of money for various uses throughout the world. It also puts into perspective what we spend money on and what other less fortunate people need money for. It is a very moving and thought provoking video. This clip will also be shown at Chapel.

Homework
It is excellent to see that most boys have got into the routine with homework. For the most part homework is all about establishing a routine and being able to use allocated time efficiently. Most boys use class time extremely well, so much so that they complete most, if not all, their spelling in class - hence no homework. Others are still learning to use their time wisely.

Pancake Day
Tuesday 6th of March is Pancake day. The boys will all be given their Pancakes in class prior to recess.

Sport
Currently the boys are doing table tennis which is in the Gym. So when you come to collect them on Thursday at 3:30 you will find them all in the Gym.

Well that's about it for this week.

Thanks and regards,
Nesha
