Procedures for returning students

Thanks to everyone’s efforts yesterday in ensuring the first day entry procedures went smoothly. It was great that by the time school started yesterday morning, there were just a handful of students who had not brought in their covid test reports. Please see following list. If these children turn up in your class, then please double check with the office that they have provided their covid tests reports.

 

It was also good that just a couple of students in the school require e-learning.

As our next holiday is only 4 weeks away 😀 , we will follow the same procedures when students return from their CNY break.

MultiSports Gymnastics & Soccer – Message from David Watson

A kind reminder that multisport Gymnastics and Soccer will re-commence today (after school). Could you please send soccer students to the courtyard, and gymnastics students to the gym. This involves the same students as last semester as the program runs up until CNY.

 

Message from HR

The HR office (and Accounts department) has moved to Gubei C building from today. When sending any documents to HR via internal mail, please ensure that you clearly mark the envelope GUBEI C building 3 floor.

 

Printer upgrade – Action required. Message from IT

REGISTERING STAFF CARD ON PRINTER

 

New Students – Important note

Just a reminder to assign one or two buddies to the new students, and to ensure that the parents receive all the information, including the initial intro email/newsletter, timetable, blog link  etc… Please also set up a Zomo meeting with them within two weeks after the start.  This will allow the parents to ask any questions that they may have at that time. This is a really important step to help create that relationship with the new families when they are unable to come onto campus.

 

Other events happening today:

  • Mid Year Reports – leaders to give back to teachers
  • Y3 Piano Ensemble Trio B – Wednesday Lunch Recess 12:55-1:20 (309) – Ms. Diana
