Welcome to the Year 1L Blog

Hello and welcome parents to the Year 1L blog,

I hope you have all had a relaxing holiday and are excited for the year ahead!

I am looking forward to partnering with you in helping your child grow emotionally, socially, physically, academically and spiritually this year.

Year One is such an exciting time as you watch your child's skills develop and grow. They will learn so many new and wonderful things. I will strive to make your child's learning experience a fun and exciting one. I hope to instil a love of learning that will last throughout your child's years of schooling.

This blog will be the main communication for any parent information over the coming year.  Please enter your email into the 'follow by email' section on the left hand side of the blog so you will get email updates when I post to the blog.

A few important things over the next weeks:

Home Readers

As the children are settling into the new routines and expectations of Year One, we will begin sending home reading books this week on a 2 day roster. Your child will be scheduled a changing day (Monday/Wednesday or Tuesday/Thursday)  but we ask that you bring their reading folder everyday so they can read in the morning and keep their sight words in them for the year.

Swimming

Swimming lessons will run for the next two weeks. We are scheduled to head to the beach with the Year 5 students at 9.15 am and we will return to school around 10.20am.

Please bring their towel, goggles and a spare plastic bag (for wet bathers) in either a separate sports bag or plastic bag which will hang outside until our swimming time. We ask that your child come to school in their thongs but pack their sports shoes in their bag to change into after the lesson.

Specialist days:

Monday: Music
Tuesday: Sport (Sports uniform)
Wednesday: Indonesian and Library (Please bring their library bags on this day)
Thursday: Health

I look forward to a wonderful year and working with you and your child. If you have any question or queries please don't hesitate to email me at lissiman.karla@cathednet.wa.edu.au. Please remember when the door opens at 8.30am I have a 'duty of care' to the children.

Thank you in anticipation of your support.

Kind regards


Miss Karla Lissiman
