Dear Parent(s) / Guardian(s)
ASSESSMENT TIMETABLES

Your child will be issued with a formal assessment timetable (grades 4 to 7) for Term 3 by his/her respective class teachers.

INTERNATIONAL FOOD AND GAMES EVENING:

Friday 19 August 2016: 17h00 – 21h00

A meeting was held on Tuesday morning to plan the International Food Fair and Games Evening. Thank you to all the class reps and parents who attended the meeting to support with the organisation of this fundraiser. All the food stalls will be in the hall on the night and the games will be in each of the respective classes. The class reps have come up with some very interesting and exciting games that I know the children will enjoy playing! A wide range of food, refreshments and drinks (regrettably no alcoholic beverages permitted) will be on sale. Each class is required to run a food stall in the hall as well as a carnival style game in the classroom. More details and information will follow shortly.
