Dear colleagues,
We hope you had a restful and energizing long weekend. It felt that this was needed, given the long stretch after the
winter break, Grade 2 and others going down with influenza, and just a lot going on in all grades.

Congratulations to grade 4 for completing the very busy week including poetry cafe and the presentation extravaganza
during Thursday’s extended learning time.

Additionally, Ellen, Yoshiko, and Katie led another successful parent coffee on Wednesday and the extended
learning on Thursday was a busy day for all grades. As you may have read that the puppet show supporting grade
2 unit was postponed and quickly re-scheduled with the great help from Saiko.

This short week will focus on 3-way conference prep on Wednesday. Before the conference preparation, we will
have a brief reflection and feedback collection time for our schedules including the current 9-day and supervision
schedule. Also, note that the Middle School ski trip is this week so it will be somewhat quieter in the school.

Just to keep everyone in the loop, most of the conferences and workshops scheduled for the spring have been
systematically canceled or postponed due to the impact of coronavirus. We are hoping that the Japanese Making
the PYP Happen will still go ahead in Osaka. Let’s keep up the good hygiene habits in the classrooms and let’s stay
healthy.
