we enter the last three weeks of school, I would like to share some information regarding the end of year events and procedures.
The End of Year Reports will be distributed on Saturday 23rd of June for returning students. We will not be able to issue any reports before this date.
This year, all students will need to return their iPads to school before they leave to go on holiday.This is to allow us to work on the set up of these machines over the summer. The Class/Homeroom teachers will be collecting the iPad with their cases, chargers and cable. All machines must be handed back to the school on Wednesday, 20th June 2012. If you are leaving school early for any reason please ensure that the iPad is returned before you go. iPads that are not returned will not be ready for use in the next school year.
Yearbooks will be distributed with reports this year. We will not be making CDs this year and so if you wish to have a yearbook you will need to order hardcopies. In a couple of days we will be sending out letters asking you to order your copies of the yearbook. Please return the order slip with the exact money in an envelope as quickly as possible to help us process these orders effectively.
Class parties will be taking place on Monday 25th June, please watch for the communications from your teachers for details. End of Year Assemblies will be taking place on the last day of school which is Tuesday, 26th June and will start at 11.40. Please be aware that the last day of school is a half day and classes will finish at 12.50.
If your family is leaving the school this year, please be informed that your child will have to return everything that belongs to the school (iPads, Library Books etc.) and will need to be up-to-date with your fee payments before you receive the final report.
The last weeks of school are a really important time for children to be at school so please ensure that your child attends school until the last day. If, for whatever reason, you are leaving early, please inform either myself or the office.
Next weekend may be another long one… we haven’t yet been formally informed if there will be public holidays on Saturday and/or Sunday but this may well be the case. I will send out an SMS as soon as we find out when the school will be open next week.
