Weekly Update, Monday, 9 October 2017

Dear colleagues,


From a successful Futsal Tournament to welcome to the Sports Day! Thank you to all players, teachers, parents, volunteers and of course Sim and Hiroki for running such a smooth Falcon Cup on Friday. It was great to see so many visiting in the region. We learned about sportsmanship, competitiveness and how to play soccer effectively in a small space indoors.
Today, on the annual Sports Day, the CA community celebrates its sense of togetherness and belonging. From the youngest to the oldest students in the school will join teams to have fun and compete with a smile on their faces. Families will join us to cheer for all children on the school grounds and may stay for a picnic. I am sure everyone will enjoy the special CA community day.
All ES students will return to their classrooms before they are dismissed either to their parents or going home on their own. In case the students are going home on their own, please make sure that their parents are aware of them going home early today. Faculty may leave today after the students have been dismissed.
On Wednesday Trevor and Kim will be leading the planning session for teacher-parent conferences. Also from Wednesday to Friday Kim and Trevor will be in charge of the Elementary School as Heikki is joining the counselors and the rest of the leadership team for a child protection workshop in Hong Kong. Finally, in case you missed the blog posting earlier, this week’s assembly has been postponed.


Let’s all have a great week!
