YEAR 3 CLASSROOM NEWS
After much waiting and worrying, the eggs that the Year Three class have been incubating have finally hatched!! To the excitement of the class, 11 chickens hatched, and the children were able to witness the process from the very begging to end. This was an amazing experience that engaged the students in learning about life and living things.

As Easter is upon us, the class will also be looking at why the 'egg' is a symbol used at Easter time. It symbolises new life, and the kids have witnessed the new life that eggs, and Easter brings to the world.
I would like to take this opportunity to wish the Holy Name Community a very happy and safe Easter. Lawson Short

PARENTING IDEAS SCHOOL
Holy Name is now registered as a ‘Parenting Ideas School’ This gives both staff and parents access to the great writing and inspirational ideas of parenting expert, Michael Grose. I have included an article “Engage in your child’s education through volunteering” on in this week's newsletter. As you will read Michael advocates that the more you, as parents are a part of your child’s school life and activities, the greater your child will succeed at school. I encourage all parents to read this article and if possible increase your level of involvement at Holy Name.
