Dear colleagues,
Welcome to the last week before the October Break. It looks like we are having the first a little bit cooler and rainy week ahead of us. Hopefully, we can have a few outdoor recesses despite the forecast.
This week’s highlights are definitely the Parent-Teacher conferences on Thursday and Friday. Our parent community is very supportive yet curious about their child’s learning at CA - as they should be. As these conferences are the only reporting tool this time, the parents are excited about meeting the teachers and hearing how the first two months have gone and how they can best support their children to do well in the future. Please note that the school will serve an early dinner on Thursday and lunch on Friday to the conferencing faculty.
The ES Leadership team (Kim, Trevor, and Heikki) will get together on Tuesday afternoon for a longer planning session to reflect the start of the year and to plan ahead. Finally, at the end of this week it is time to congratulate ourselves for a successful start of the year and wish everyone a wonderful holiday!
Let’s have a wonderful week!
