Well done to all those children who did the quizzes about the beach. Our new “BIG TALK” subject is jobs and professions. Please have a look at the talk English display by the lower playground. If any parents have professions or jobs that have not been included let me know. Once again Pet Points will be given to children who complete the puzzles from these pages. Thank you for trying hard to learn new vocabulary.

Dear parents,

We have decided to repeat our home school Christmas project which is now so successful. This Christmas our theme is the Nativity Scene, a character or the whole scene. We invite parents to help their children to make the project which will be put on display in school and later be taken home.

Dear Parents,

Once again Christmas is nearly upon us. This is such a busy time of the year that I would like to take this opportunity to inform you of the dates of interest

Dear parents, as you all know, P3 pupils organized a cake stall on 28^th October and 2^nd November in order to raise money for the crisis in Africa. We are very pleased to inform you that the amount collected was 781.50€ and has now been deposited in the Cruz Roja’s account. We would like to thank all the P3 children and their parents for helping to organize the cake stall and the rest of children for buying the products.

Entre las tareas más comunes que hay que hacer en Primaria están, como sabes, las siguientes:

Leer. Se trata de leer comprendiendo lo que se lee. Para controlar si se sabe hacer esto, los profesores solemos hacer varias clases de preguntas: unas, referidas a palabras y detalles concretos del texto; otras, referidas al texto en su conjunto. También podemos pedirte que hagas un resumen, o que digas lo mismo con otras palabras.

Dear parents, from now on pupils should come in their winter uniform every day and bring the P.E. uniform in a bag on the days they have P. E. so they can get changed. Please see the P. E. timetable on the school web site.

Dear Parents,

In order to raise money for charity, the children in P3 will be running a cake stall on Friday 28^th October. This will take place during playtime (10:30 – 11:00). The 3^rd  grade pupils, will be responsible for running the stall and will be selling all sorts of cakes and biscuits for a maximum price of 1€.

We would like to remind parents the school photographer will be in school on Wednesday 19^th October, we will therefore change into winter uniform from Monday 17^th October and bring the P.E. uniform in a bag on the days they have P. E. so they can get changed. Please see the P. E. timetable on the school web site. 

This year we really want to help improve the vocabulary of all the children in Canterbury School. Most of the children only speak English during class and so may have little experience of the vocabulary outside of a class situation. We are hoping to bridge this gap by providing the whole school with the opportunity to learn new words and practise these words by doing crosswords and word searches on a particular theme.

Dear Parents,

The school day begins at 8:30 and the children should go directly to the playground on their arrival at school. There is a teacher on duty in the playground from 8:00. Children who arrive before 8:00 will automatically go to a classroom where they will be supervised by an adult. The form requesting this service can be found on the school web page.
