Dear Parents

I would like to thank all the parents who attended Wednesday night’s Annual General Meeting. A new Board of Management was duly elected and will hold its first meeting next week on Wednesday, 10 December. There is a notice board specially for Board of Management business at the entrance to the school buildings and this is a good way for all parents to stay in touch with the management of our school.

I would also like to thank those members of the previous Board who did not stand for re-election: Greg Fitzgerald, Shirley Wong, Menno Schilthuizen, and Abier Kamal. Thank you for all of your efforts on behalf of the school.

A reminder that parent-teacher meetings for secondary students will take place on Tuesday, 9 December. Appointment forms have now been issued and should be completed as promptly as possible, please, to ensure that appointments are made at convenient times.

Primary Parent-teacher Meetings

Thank you to the staff and parents who attended the primary parent-teacher meetings last night. They are an excellent forum for discussing your child’s progress and it was very encouraging to see so many of you there.
