Reflecting and relieved after the PYPx |
Dear colleagues,
The mixed-weather Golden Week is behind us and we have a couple of days to orient ourselves for the coming weeks including the end-of-year report card writing. Once again, we would like to congratulate everyone for making the student-led conferences and the PYP exhibition successful and thought-provoking experiences for the whole Elementary School community. As always, the grade 5 students raised to the occasion and impressed us all, and how powerful and impactful the warm-hearted moments of sharing between students and parents were when celebrating the year of learning.
We would like to invite all to the May faculty briefing on this Friday at 7:50 instead of Tuesday next week. We would like to go through a few important timelines, share the report card writing guidelines, and pave the way to the final weeks of the school year.
Heikki will start final meetings with all faculty members to reflect on each Tankyuu process and the school year as a whole.
Let’s have a fabulous couple of days before the weekend!
Riana, Trevor, and Heikki
