Thank you to Ms. Cora Brady-Robeau and Ms. Ana Sepanovic who stepped in during their absence in order to provide ongoing quality programs.\u00a0 It is with sad hearts this week that we say goodbye to our dear Grade 2 teacher, Ms. Fiona Stewart, will travel back to Scotland for health reasons.\u00a0 We are indeed fortunate to have Ms. Brady at the ready to step in and work with Ms. Wendy, Ms. Salima and the grade 2 students.\u00a0 Cora already knows the students well and brings with her a wealth of knowledge and experience.<\/p>\n<p>Teachers are busy finalizing Progress Report comments and uploading them onto our ManageBac program.\u00a0 You will receive your child&#8217;s Term 1 Progress Report next Tuesday, October 26 via email. This is a great opportunity to have a conversation with your child about achievements so far this year as well as learning goals for the near future. Please make sure the school has your current email address.\u00a0 If you do not receive your child&#8217;s progress report by next Tuesday afternoon, please contact Mr. Atul, our IT Manager, in order to ensure our school data is up to date.\u00a0 Mr. Atul: <a href=\"mailto:a.alex@abisoman.com\">a.alex@abisoman.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Swimming continues to be a highlight of the week for Primary students!\u00a0 They love being in the water and the lessons are going very well with students following health and safety protocols and having a great time learning new swimming skills. Please continue to send appropriate swim wear, a towel and a bag for wet gear afterwards.\u00a0 We strongly recommend that students wear goggles as this enhances the experience as well as protects students&#8217; eyes from infection.\u00a0 We strongly recommend swim caps as it keeps hair out of faces during lessons as well as keeps the pool clean and protects the filtration system.\u00a0 Thank you for your ongoing support with our swim program.\u00a0 We are so impressed with the near 100% participation rate in Primary.<\/p>\n<p>Please remember that next week is a short week for ABIS and that October Break will run from Wednesday, Oct. 27 &#8211; Sunday Oct. 31 inclusive.\u00a0 We will see everyone back at school on Monday, Nov. 1.\u00a0 Enjoy the time with your children and if you are traveling please remain safe.<\/p>\n<p>Maeve<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear Families; It is with great pleasure that we welcomed back Ms. Margot, our fabulous Information Technology teacher and librarian, and Mr. Mike, our energetic Primary music and KG PE teacher, this week.
