I look forward to working with them this year and developing their role as leaders of their Houses!

On the first Friday of each month, we will share the latest Monthly Maths Challenge. Students wishing to take on a new challenge can attempt the September Maths Challenge and there is a task for Year 1&amp;2, Year 3&amp;4 and Year 5&amp;6 to attempt.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Each week we will also share a Fun Challenge that families may wish to tackle together, or students can do independently, if they are keen to rise to the challenges set. This week\u2019s fun challenge is a treasure hunt to find at least 10 objects matching your House colours. Your treasure hunt can be anywhere you are&#8230;at home, out shopping, or even on an outing for the day. Wherever you hunt, we look forward to seeing all the objects you can discover that match your House colours.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To share any of the challenges you complete, please upload your photos to your child\u2019s individual Dojo portfolios. You can also drop a printed photo into the challenge boxes placed by the Class Dojo board at the front of the school.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We are also extremely excited and pleased to share with you again the return of our much loved Book @ Bedtime&#8230;or Anytime story. This week Mr. Gross reads the wonderful tale of Mrs Wobble the Waitress by Janet and Alan Ahlberg. We hope you enjoy sharing this story together at home and you look forward to hearing more stories read by members of our KIS community every fortnight.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you missed the challenges when they were shared on Dojo on Friday, please check out School Story on Dojo to find the link to the Weekly Dojo Challenge folder.
