Dear Parents,

VERY WARM GREETINGS TO ALL!

We are rolling beautifully into the new Academic year. We had lots of fun filled

activities to report about this month.

Our month started with World Coconut Day celebrations on 1st of September.

Children from P-Nursery to PP-2 came dressed up in creative ways using different

parts of coconut tree. Nursery children had fun time tasting various cuisines made

with coconut. Reception and PP-1 children learnt about various uses of coconut and

made crafts using coconut. PP-2 as a part of their UOI ‘Senses’ inquired into all

parts of coconut using their five senses.

September 2017 Newsletter

Goal Setting Week:

As part of the Leadership Curriculum, the students from the Nursery –PP2 worked consciously towards developing a Growth Mindset.

All students identified a specific (short term/long term)goal to work on in an area that they find challenging - ranging from reading, writing, math, art, drama, dance, sport etc.

Teacher’s Day Celebrations:

Teacher’s Day is the best occasion to extend our sincere gratitude to all the teachers, for not only helping our students to learn but being their true mentors and role models. There is no doubt about the fact that it takes an incredible amount of dedication, knowledge and patience to teach a class, full of present day students, who are sharp, inquisitive and real go getters and that type of responsibility and commitment, makes these teachers real heroes on a daily basis. Our small children made gifts/cards for their teachers. They visited each class to wish and distribute the cards and small gifts that they made for their teachers. PP-1 children also made crowns for all their teachers.

Scintillating programme by students in the special assembly marked the Teachers’ Day celebrations. Our PP-2 children also presented a dance to show their respect for their teachers.

The school management also felicitated the teacher’s for their contribution in the field of education.

Book Week:

Parent Volunteer Program:

Our Parent Volunteer program is going on very well.

We have had support from our active parent & family volunteers to support in their

child's education. We want to acknowledge those parents that continue to

participate in school events and volunteered their time at school, and are leaders in

school.

Parent Volunteer Opportunities: Special Thanks to:

Fire Drill Practice:

We practiced our first Fire Drill of the year.

Children from Pre Nursery to PP-2 participated and

completed their drill in a calm and organized

manner. They were able to answer the questions

about the same later.
