Music Count Us In!

At 9:00 am (Perth Time), Room 12 tuned in for the live streaming of the Music Count Us In, held at the Sydney Harbour. Schools from around Australia have been learning the song, "Gold." This was written and performed by students from different parts of Australia, under the guidance of John Foreman and Marcia Hines. Wattle Grove students have been learning the song in their weekly music lessons and it was a lovely experience for them to sing simultaneously with other students from all over our nation!

Fete this Sunday!

Hi everyone,

Just a reminder that the School Centenary Fete is on this Sunday from 11-4:00 pm. Our class has been asked to donate a plant to be sold at the fete. Donations would be most appreciated. Please bring along your potted plant to Room 12, where it will be looked after until the weekend.



It is going to be an awesome day- not to be missed!
Miss B

Welcome Back for Term 4



Welcome back everyone for Term 4! It is going to be action packed and filled with lots of learning and consolidating as the students transform into nearly Year 3s and 4s!

Test Books
Just a reminder that test books are due back this Friday, October 16th. Assessment is ongoing throughout the term and the students add to these regularly. All pages need to be in tact and the reflection sheet signed by a parent/guardian.

Absences
It is vital that students maintain a consistent attendance. Each day of school matters! If an absence is unavoidable, it must be reported to the school via phone, school app or verbal communication. Irregular attendance impacts the continuity of learning.

Library Changes
Room 12 will now be attending the library fortnightly but for a double session. They will be able to borrow on the odd weeks during class time. Alternatively, they can continue to swap books before, after and at lunch time, on days when the library is open.

Edu Dance
This term, we are participating in weekly dancing lessons, practising a routine  that will be performed at the end of year Presentation Night. We are combining with the Year 2's from Room 14 and had an absolute ball in our first lesson today! Thanks for the prompt payment and return of permission slips :)
