Zach time to Shine

Today Zach brought in his guitar. He played two songs for us. Great work Zach!

Mindfulness Training

In Wairere mindfulness training helps us to relax and focus. It reduces stress and makes us feel calm. Today we focused on deep belly breathing.

Time to Shine

Today at Literacy time, Cody shared some of his precious rocks with us. He also bought in some sharks teeth. Amber gave us a presentation on her baby book. She even showed us a blanket and a dummy that had been kept as treasures. We love it when students show confidence by sharing interesting  things from home with us. 

Buddy Class

On Friday Wairere teamed  up with Hapua for some Buddy Time. Room 9 and Room 4v worked some Chinese New Year crafts.

Term 1 is Almost Here... Yahoooo!

Ms K, Mr R and I hope you have enjoyed a happy holiday and are keen and eager to return to Isleworth on Monday.  We teachers have been here quite a few days, busily planning our exciting programme and organising our environment.  I have even roped Mr S in.  Here's a photo of him and Lachie building your new picnic table.  It didn't come with many instructions, so it has taken a lot of effort!

Almost there!  Just securing your seats, so you don't tumble off!

Please bring all your stationery on Monday and remember your hats.
We're not swimming on Monday, but will be every day we can, from Tuesday.  Parents need to know that assemblies are going to be fortnightly this year.  Jeanette is going to write about this in the first newsletter, so look out for that in the first week.  

If you scoot to school, the scooter shed will be open for business behind room 2 again, so please don't park in front of Room 4.

The Triathlon is coming up quickly in Term 1, so if you're looking for something to do together as a family.... how about some running, cycling or swimming training??!!

We are excited to welcome you all back to school, some of you for your final year at Isleworth!  Roll on Monday!!!

Mrs S

On Sunday, Karen went to a ballet prize giving. She won a medal labelled Incentive Award 2015.

Time to Shine

 Taylor, Cody and Josh shared with team Wairere today. We heard about fun rides, an awesome year of rugby and an impromptu sing along.

Great work guys.
