Kindergarten Home Learning Term 3 Week 5

Hello Kindergarten families!

We hope you have enjoyed a wonderful weekend and managed to have a good break from homelearning. We have prepared another week of home learning for your child and are confident thatthey will enjoy completing the set learning tasks.

I want to say huge thanks to the Kindergarten team, consisting of Mrs Tighe, Mrs Bailey, MrsHood, Mrs Mayers, Mrs Korber and Ms Kenny for the work they have been completing over thepast few weeks. As you can imagine, they have a multitude of tasks to complete each day,including preparing next week's lessons, making the morning daily videos, responding to Seesawmessages, filming stories and lessons, troubleshooting technology challenges, delivering lessonsto students at school and many more new unfamiliar tasks. They are working tirelessly as a teameach week and I am grateful for their dedication and professionalism.

Last week, Mr O’Connor communicated via Skoolbag that as a school we have experienced anincrease in the number of students attending school and we have attendance levels (percentages)significantly above other schools in the area. In this message, he reminded all families that we areoperating with minimal supervision on site. The school remains operational for students whocannot learn from home because their parent(s) are essential workers who cannot work fromhome. He explained further, that if you are not working, or you are working from home, pleasekeep your children at home for home learning. We do understand that this isn't always easy but wethank everyone for the support that you are able to provide during this challenging time.

We are currently working on preparing an online home reading option that would provide yourchild with access to the books they would normally read at school and bring home each day. Thereis some background work that we need to do to prepare this online platform but I am confident thatyou will receive a message about how to log on and access this resource this week. Please keepan eye out on Seesaw for further information. There is a cost involved with this resource, $10 perstudent but we are using school funds to purchase this online resource. When it is available, Iencourage everyone to find some time to use it with your child.

That is all for this week, have a terrific week.Mr HailstoneDeputy Principal K-2
