WELCOME TO CLASS 3/4M WITH MS MARIA MURPHY
I am one of the Stage 2 teachers this year and look forward to a year of teaching & learning with your children. I like to work in partnership with the families in our class and strive to support all students in 3/4M. Our class consists of 27 amazing individuals: 11 girls and 16 boys. So far, we have engaged in many facets of discovery and are working on achieving some personal learning goals. Our current focus is on Responsibility and being ‘proactive,’ where we are ready for learning. Respect, Excellence & Resilience are embedded into our daily learning as we work successfully with one another. It is going to be an exciting year of friendships and learning.
