Dear Colleagues,
We trust the third run of the 9-day schedule is getting easier as the days go through. We had a successful Extended
Learning time on Thursday with many enthusiastic students, experimenting and collaborative teacher teams.
Well done everyone!

Last week we also had a transition meeting for the parents of kindergarten students. We had a walkthrough of
the classes, playground, and cafeteria with explanations how the future first graders will survive the start in the
“big” building as well as KB teachers’ sharing of how we prepare the students for the transition. We finished the
week with a Leadership Team retreat including the learning leaders. We were able to draft operational goals for
the school year 2019-2020 of which we will share in the near future.

This week will be busy with MAP’s testing and Jazz week. On Wednesday we will have parents joining a coffee
morning regarding transitions (country, school, grade level) and in the afternoon we have no PD or meetings as
the time is dedicated for Report Card writing.

Please, note that IB exams will finish on Thursday this week.
On Friday, we would like to ask you to start lunch at 12:20 so that we can empty the cafeteria by 12:45 for the IB
workshop participants’ lunch.
We would also like to wish all the grade three and four students good luck getting ready for their concert this
Friday. It will take place at 18:00 in the Auditorium. Thank you Satsuki for all the extra time and preparation to
get singers and musicians ready.
