3 August - 9 August

Kia ora. I hope we are all settling into Term 3 and adjusting to the timetable with Wednesday Projects and Focus Friday. We need to ensure we use our timetabled slot on Monday wisely so you can manage your time carefully to complete your tasks.  This is an important skill to have as you enter the next stage of your education.  If you would like to be considered for the upcoming school speech competition you need to ensure your speech is ready to be presented on Monday in class.  We will continue presenting speeches on Monday and Friday.  I will create a scheduled workshop for when you and your chosen audience (of 4) will be presenting  on Friday (30 minute slot should allow  all 5 people to present).  Please make sure you check the timetable and are available when scheduled - having to be 'found' is going to delay the whole class!
