I would like to say welcome to all the children and their whanau to the Flying Niners (Room 9). This year is going to be full of new learning, new experiences and a great place for every individual to learn. In fact we are called the Flying Niners because we will soar to great heights in our learning.
I look forward to getting to know you all as the year continues. Please feel free to come in and see me anytime in the classroom or you can send me an email at
ebony@russellst.school.nz if you can not make it into school.
Here are a few things you may need to know about our class:
Swimming instruction is for the first 6 weeks of term 1. Flying Niners will swim on
Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
We will be visiting the
hub on
Thursday. Please ensure that library books are returned on this day so that the children can issue new books.
Reading folders are an essential item for helping keep books and notices safe and ready to be shared at home. Please ensure that these make it to school every day.
We have a
Meet the Teacher evening coming up on
Monday 15th February. More information will be coming home about how to book a time for this.
A team newsletter will be sent home by the end of this week with more details about the school year. Keep an eye out for it in your child's schoolbag.
Thanks for taking the time to check our class blog. Further to the
TNB found on the
Russell Street School website, important notices and information about events for our class will be posted here as well as sharing some awesome learning. Please leave us a comment! Stay tuned for more information on your child's Seesaw learning blog. This is another great place for children to record their individual learning, share it with others to gain feedback or celebrate their accomplishments.
I am looking forward to learning along side you all in the Flying Niners.
