Term 4 School Assembly Dates

Assemblies at St Michael’s are an opportunity for our community  to come together to acknowledge and celebrate the great learning and events that happen in our school. The school assembly allows all students at St Michael’s to be recognised for their efforts. This term we have added an additional component to our assembly which allows one class per fortnight to share some of the brilliant learning that has been happening in their classrooms. 

Week 5- Friday 15 November 

Week 6- Friday 22 November (Year 1 sharing their work)

Week 8- Friday 6 December  (Year 5 sharing their work)

Supporting your children with writing at home 

This term we will continue our parent engagement strategy to support our school goal of collaboratively engaging and working with parents to support student learning. This strategy involves providing parents with a digital resource that will assist them to support their children at home. Each term there will be a focus for the digital resource. This term our focus is on providing parents with some simple and easy tips to support their children’s writing at home. 

In the link below you will have access to a short clip developed by Mrs Mayo that gives some very useful strategies to help students develop engaging imaginative texts .
