Weekly Updates, Monday 22 August, 2022

Dear Colleagues,

The time has come! We are excited to welcome all the 601 students back to school. Given that we have had these two and a half years of quiet time on campus, having so many children and parents appear on campus may be a bit overwhelming. 


Thank you all for the incredible effort and dedication in the past week. The classrooms look great, and we are all ready to start learning. You can find the Friday Briefing Presentation by following the link.


The first week will be full of opportunities to build community, introduce and bring back routines, and, most importantly, get to know the students. 


Erin, Trevor, and Heikki will be going around the different classrooms all morning before we settle for our afternoon meeting.


Let’s have fun and a great start to the school year!


Erin, Trevor, and Heikki
