Volume No: 2001-2002

Date:  19 January 2001

Please find attached the school calendar of events for the next two terms. As mentioned earlier, the academic year will only be two terms long. This is because we will be changing the academic year from being January to December as it presently is, to being September to August as it is in England.

Year 11 Pupils Sitting IGCSE

This year we will have our first group of Year 11 pupils sitting for the IGCSE examinations. They will be sitting mock exams next week in English and Mathematics to test their readiness for the main exams. Parents of the Year 11 pupils will be called to a meeting in the week following the Chinese New Year break to discuss preparation for the IGCSE examinations.

Music Teacher Urgently Required

The school requires the services of a music teacher for eight hours a week. If anyone knows of a music teacher who may be interested in this position please ask them to contact Mr Van Rijswijk.

Computer Lab Donation: Mrs Pau-Lin Lee

Mrs Lee (Wai Yeow’s mother) has made a donation for the school computer lab of RM2000.00. On behalf of the school, I would like to thank her very much for her generosity.

 Pupils Late For School

We are now into the second week of the term and we still have a sizeable number of pupils arriving late to school each morning. This causes considerable inconvenience to the class teacher and fellow pupils. Please ensure you have your pupils in school in time. Could parents also ensure that they collect their child on time after school.

Lion Dance: Tuesday 23^rd January

The school PTA has organised a Lion Dance to be performed at the school on Tuesday, 23^rd January between 10.00 & 11.00 am. All parents are invited.  

Chinese New Year Break

The school will be closed for Chinese New Year from Wednesday 24^th January and will reopen on Monday 29^th January. We would like to wish all our families Gong Xi Fa Cai.

Secondary Pupil Homework Diaries

The school has designed a new format for the pupil homework diary, and it is being printed now. We hope to be able to distribute these when the pupils return from the Chinese New Year break.

Volunteers For Swimming

We are still desperately in need of parent volunteers to assist with swimming. Parents are needed to help with the ELC class as well as the Reception to Year 3 group. If we do not get enough help, then we will have to cancel swimming. Please see your child's class teacher if you can help.
