Dear Early Years Families,

General Information:

One of the most important end-of-year occasions is the Student Led Conferences which will take place on 15 May. The SLCs are a time when the children will show their skills, learning outcomes, and ways they engage in the classroom. It is a showcase of active learning in Early Years, and I look forward to seeing all EY parents supporting their child on that day.

Remember it is a No School Day for children and you should come to campus together at your designated timeslot.

For Early Years swimming, please remember to send swim clothes and support items on your child’s PE day. Swimming is a wonderful way to develop gross motor skills, bravery, and of course have fun! We encourage all Wolf Cubs to participate in swimming lessons.

Now is an important time of year for the school to make plans for the 2024-25 academic year. The admissions department sent out enrolment reminders to all current families. To secure your seat for next year, please follow up with the admissions survey. We look forward to welcoming our Wolf Cubs into next year!

保護者の皆様へ

An invitation was sent out today for the Summer Concert on Friday May 17th, featuring students across the school and in a range of different music groups. It would be lovely to see many of our parents there, as we celebrate the musical talents that are developed here at UISG.

Another opportunity for parents to come and see the learning that is going on on campus is for the Year 9 Community Project. The Community Project exhibition will take place on 16 May 2024 from 12:25 – 13:15 in the multi-function-hall (MFH).

Our Year 10 students have been taking their MYP eAssessments this week, and this continues next week as well. The same is true of the Year 12s, whose DP exams finish next Friday on May 17th. They get their own celebratory field trip on May 21st when they head to Chimelong, and we all get to celebrate their Graduation on May 25th.

Although the weeks are ticking by, there are still a lot of significant events coming up for the Secondary school, and many of them are in the “Looking Ahead” section below:
