Week 2 30/1 -3/2

Sport:  Year One will have sport on Tuesday this term. Could you please send your child to school in full sports uniform each Tuesday. They will have sport from 11:15am on Tuesdays after recess.

Library: All Year One class will have their library lesson on Tuesday mornings. We will inform you when it will be commencing. Students borrow 2 books each week.

Dance Fever: The children will take part in a weekly program called Dance Fever. They will learn new skills and dances. Dance Fever for Year One is on a Friday at 11:15am. Could you please send your children in their normal school uniform. Dance Fever begins 3/2/17.

Changing readers: Students will be allocated a day to change their classroom readers. WE ASK THAT ALL CHILDREN KEEP THEIR READING FOLDER IN THEIR BAG EACH DAY SO THAT ADDITIONAL READERS CAN BE ISSUED THROUGHOUT THE WEEK IF NECESSARY. It’s easier just to get into the habit of having reading folders available each day. Thank you.

Reader will start to be sent home Week 3

Holiday Home Reader Packs:  A large number of holiday home reader packs were distributed to Kinder & Year 1 (2016) students at the end of the year. The packs should be returned to the library. The replacement cost for each pack is $75 if not returned.

Thank you to all parents for your hard work in returning your children’s book cover with contact!! We will begin to use the book full time next week.

Year One Team

Welcome to Year One 2017

Welcome to Year One 2017. We hope that you all had a relaxing and enjoyable time during the holidays. The holidays always seem to go very quickly as we are all so busy during those first few weeks. The children have all come to school this term very happy and settled. They are excited about their new classes and have already begun to make new friends. Thank you for all that you have done to prepare them for their new year at school. We welcome the new children and families to Year One and the OLOR school community. We are looking forward to a great year of laughs, love and learning.

The Year One teachers for this year areMrs Roslyn Earl (1 Gold), Mrs Sarah Jeffriess (1 Blue), and Miss Danielle Hutchinson (1White). Mrs Ida Davidson will be in 1 Gold on Thursdays only. We look forward to working with you and your children this year.

During this first week of school the children will have time to colour in their book covers. We will be sending these home over the course of the first week and kindly ask parents to cover them in clear contact and return as soon as possible. The children will begin using them everyday next week.  Colouring of books that are not completed within the time frame at school can be completed at home. Thank you for your assistance with this.

Please read through the tab pages provided above as they contain important information, specifically General Year 1 Information. The school also has a phone app that sends alerts for important information. It is called OLOR Kellyville – Skoolbag

The blog will be updated at the end of each week for the upcoming week. Any further information will be posted as soon as we are made aware of it. Please regularly check our blog as this is our main form of communication.
