what's+happening?


 * Hi everyone and welcome to Room 1.**
 * This is the place where the foundations of 'learning to be at school' and 'what school means' begins.**


 * My name is Ms Olivia Brown. I have been teaching for 12 years and during this time have taught from Year 0 right through to Year 8. I particularly enjoy teaching the Year 1-4 students.**

[] []
 * I am Reading Recovery trained, have years of experience in teaching the foundations of literacy and numeracy and absolutely LOVE being with students in those moments of "oh that's how you do it!' or "c-a-t, CAT!" occur. I also work within the school as the SENCO. This role means that I oversee the running of the special needs programmes** **right across the school** **and liaise with agencies who work with students for various reasons. Two of these programmes that we have within our Junior School are PMP and LEXIA. Both of these programmes help set our students up for success. If you would like to learn more about either of these programmes please visit the following links.**


 * For information on what is going on within Room 1 or within the school, please visit the school website newsletters link or check on the 'Home' button on this wiki to review the school calendar.**


 * My direct email is obrown@alfriston.school.nz I invite you to use this to make a time to see me this term or if you need to pass on any information. I tend to check my inbox daily, however if you need to get hold of me urgently please call the office directly.**


 * I am looking forward to getting to know you all and watch your child's learning grow with you!**


 * Olivia**
