Class 2/3 Sally Drysdale Term 2 Week 3Monday 11th of May to Friday 15th May Hello 2/3,

Welcome to Week 3 of Term 2. I hope all our Mums, Grandmothers and special ladies had a lovely Mother’s Day.

I am excited to be back teaching 2-3 and look forward to having students return to school this week for 1 day.

Every morning at 9am we will be having a 2/3 Team Meeting on Microsoft Teams. It will be great to see as many of you log in as possible and participate in the meeting to check in, discuss the daily schedule and answer any questions you may have about learning from home or any of the learning tasks. Alternatively, if you are unable to access Microsoft Teams I am available to be contacted through email sally.drysdale@det.nsw.edu.au as well as phone, by calling BPS on 5453 2133 leaving a message with the office and I will get back to you as soon as I can.

I have attached a learning plan and required resources for Monday to Friday. I have highlighted some key tasks for the week that I would like sent to me via a photo through email or returned in your tub when you change over work packs. There will be a new pack ready for Term 2 Week 4 on Friday at 1pm available from family tubs as well as the school website.

Have a lovely week,

Sally Drysdale
