Term 3 Week 4


Hello to the members of 2 White and their families!

St Bernardine's  Value :     Inclusion

Things to Remember :- 

  • 2 White host assembly this week.  Wednesday 3rd August at 2:25pm in Siena
  • Photos are Tuesday and Wednesday 2nd and 3rd August here at school.  Please have your order in by Monday at the very latest.
  • Music and PE are on Mondays and Fridays
  • Father's Day Liturgy is Friday of week 6.
Homework: This term there has been a change to homework and spelling.  The homework will be sent home on Mondays and due back completed on Mondays from now on. 
Homework for week 4 will be sent home on Monday 1st August and will be due back on Monday 8th August.  Students, it is important to take pride in your homework.  This is part of your learning at home.

Improve Home Reading - One way to motivate your child to read their home reader may be 'I read, you read.'  You could read the entire book first then have your child read it or take it page by page.  You read a page, then your child reads the same page.  It can be motivating for the students to hear someone else read what they will be reading next.  Try to inject some fun into it - you could use expression, change your voice or try reading the book to a beat.  Making this time fun is important.    


Have a great week!
