Weekly Update, Monday 21 August 2017


Dear colleagues,

Welcome to school year 2017-2018! We are looking forward to seeing you all today and starting yet another great year together. I am sure everyone has a memorable summer holiday slowly fading away as the work realities are slowly creeping into our minds. There is a lot to do this week to be ready for the students and families. Let's make sure we keep smiling and help each other so that we can launch everything as successfully as possible. Here you can find the slideshow from this morning's meeting.
