Dear colleagues,
Welcome to Ohanami and the final stretch of the school year! The March break marks the change in seasons and starts the anticipation of the summer months. Before we let our minds take us there, we have a wonderful opportunity to look at the learning of our students, design intentional and targeted learning and help our students to have a successful month of learning which we can then showcase and celebrate during the student-led conferences and PYP Exhibition.
This week the whole school gathers together on the green belt to celebrate Ohanami under the beautiful sakura. On Thursday, students will engage in the extended learning session.
Finally, we will welcome two new KB students and one grade 1 student this week.
Let’s have a wonderful week!
Erin, Trevor, and Heikki
