As educators, we\u2019re fortunate to (mostly) avoid the animals\u2014though we do enjoy our ABIS goats and chickens\u2014but we have the daily privilege of working with children. And with children, as we all know, come many delightful surprises\u2014especially when staging assemblies and concerts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Today\u2019s Grade 3\u20136 Summer Concert, like the KG1\u2013G2 Concert a few weeks ago, provided a wonderful opportunity for our students to be risk-takers and to perform in front of a large audience. Over the past few weeks, they\u2019ve practiced diligently\u2014despite the end-of-year fatigue and the lure of the summer holidays\u2014and it showed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A big congratulations to Mr. Mino for his hard work in preparing the students. It was heartening to see the variety of performances on display, and even more so to know that students had the <\/span><b>agency<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> to decide how much they wanted to participate. Some chose to sing, dance, or speak on stage, while others preferred to support from the chorus\u2014each choice valid and valuable.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">These concerts are rich with learning and \u201cteachable moments.\u201d As a primary team, we will reflect on the highlights and also consider ways to continue refining these experiences. As our school grows, so does our commitment to ensuring that every student has a chance to shine\u2014while also recognising that some may need a little more time before stepping into the spotlight.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As parents, your support is invaluable. Whether your child took centre stage or chose a quieter role, every contribution is worthy of celebration. Success looks different for each learner, and we\u2019re proud of all our students for their efforts and participation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A quick reminder: <\/span><b>next week is the final week of school<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, and the <\/span><b>last day for students is Wednesday<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, with dismissal at <\/span><b>1:00 p.m.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Wishing you a restful and joyful weekend.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Warm regards,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Matthew<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Primary Team Lead<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Reminders<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Sunday, 15th &#8211; 18th June:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Spirit Week (see HR teacher messages for further details for each day)<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Wednesday, 18th June<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">: 1:00 pm finish for students.
