The 2015 School year started today
The class of 2015 arrived in Room 10 this morning - 15 boys, 15 girls and only one absent, meant a good start to the school year. Lots of listening done - finding out about the rules and expectations of a new class and school.
Well done - you had a long day and I was impressed with your positive attitudes - looks like another great year in Room 10 ahead.
