Welcome to the second Semester and to the third decade of the 21st century!
January is traditionally a time for looking both backwards and forwards. A time for reflection about past events and achievements, resolving to make some changes and improvements in the year ahead and for setting targets and goals. This is of course particularly appropriate at school. You will have received your child’s end of Semester one report, where both achievements and goals have been outlined. Semester two offers multiple opportunities to reach higher and further. In recognition of those students who achieved the ISS Honour Roll certificates will be presented at a special assembly on Thursday 16th January. Parents of students who will receive certificates have been informed by e-mail today. The Semester two ECA and ASA schedule is ready and will be shared with you early next week. There will be a 10 week programme of both free activities run by teachers and paid activities run by outside providers, commencing the week beginning 10th February. Thank you to all the parents who volunteered to help with home languages in Semester 2, the meeting will be held as planned on 17th January at 8:00am in room 26. As part of our ongoing efforts to safeguard ISS Community health, all student and staff travel must be declared during vacation periods. Initially this will be retospective and will record travel that did take place over the recent break, following which the form will be completed prior to all breaks eg before Chinese New Year, before Spring break etc. Students in Grades 4-8 will complete a Travel Declaration form at school next week, forms for students in KG to G3 will be sent home for parents to complete. Please note that information will only be used in the case of medical emergencies. Upcoming Events:
