Weekly Update, Monday 2 September 2019

Dear colleagues,
We trust this weekend offered an important time to rest and gather thoughts after the first full week. 
It has been a great start in every class and students have been very engaged in learning with full force already.
A big thank you for making the effort to inspire, guide, and support our learners through high expectations
for learning, behavior and learner agency.



The extended learning focusing on building community is the next step in establishing a learning environment
that is hopefully sustainable and supportive of all members in class for the whole school year.


This week remains busy. We have the first Tuesday morning briefing, Extended Learning,
Wednesday PD, and Back to School Night extravaganza on Thursday. Let’s all do our very best to stay calm,
focused, and positive in order to have plenty of success with it all.


Let’s have a wonderful week!


Riana, Trevor, and Heikki
