Team 1

The Team One teachers would like to welcome back everyone to Freyberg in 2012. We have a busy year ahead of us with lots of exciting events to look forward to!  

Our main theme for this term is identity, with a major focus on Science, Social Studies, Health, and Visual Art. As you can imagine we will be having lots of discussions within our classes about our environment, kotahitanga, and staying healthy. You are most welcome to come into our classrooms anytime, and see what we do.  We love helpers and always have many jobs for them to do!  If you are planning to stay for a length of time in any of the classes please visit the office first to sign in.   

We have many interesting trips and visitors organised for our syndicate this term - Harold the Giraffe will be visiting with the Life Education Caravan in weeks 7 and 8, and we will all be going to the New Lynn butterfly garden with Team 2 in week 6 as part of our science unit on minibeasts. We are even planning our very own ugly bug ball to celebrate the end of term 1!

We would like to remind everybody about Freyberg's hat policy - during Term 1 and 4 all children must have their hats on when going outside, otherwise they must play in the shade. It is important that children remember to bring their hats to school every day during the hot summer months. 

Please keep checking our fantastic Freyberg website - we will be updating it regularly with our class work and photos. 

We wish everybody a safe and happy term!
