From the Principal 18.05.19
Dear KIS Community,
It may feel that the school year is rapidly approaching its natural conclusion, yet we have so much going on at school. Please take the time to check calendars, read letters, look at Dojo and keep an eye on noticeboards. The remaining weeks include events such as Sportnite, Food Drive, Graduation, PTA AGM, Prom, Car Boot Sale, Hari Raya & Kaamatan Celebration, Summer Fair, KIS Has Talent, Science Fair, Duke of Edinburgh, Careers Days, Work Experience, End of Year Exams, Transition Days, Swimming Gala’s, Primary Production, to name but a few. Don’t forget there are also some holidays built in and of course, regular school lessons and ECAs.
This weekend KIS will be at City Mall promoting ourselves, pop by and say hello if you are around. This is prior to our open day on Tuesday 21st where we will be showing prospective families around the school. If you know anyone who is looking to join KIS in August, you can invite them along and get a reduction in your own school fees if they join KIS.
On Wednesday, we are having our regular “Drop Off & Drop In” coffee morning at 8am in the MPR, we will be discussing student culture, behaviour and expectations. We look forward to seeing you and enjoying your company for the morning along with members of the school leadership team. By now you should have received a letter from school explaining the Memorial Assembly for Nicholas Chong next Thursday. This will take place in the school hall, further details can be found in the letter; please check your email or the Parent Letters’ section on our website.
Finally, a reminder for our parents at drop off and pick up, please avoid parking or waiting directly outside the St Francis School Entrance (even if the gates are closed). Their entrance, like ours, should be kept clear please. If you use drivers or Grab could you please remind them of the same; your support on these matters is always appreciated.
I wish you all an enjoyable long weekend and see you on Tuesday (or sooner at City Mall),
Ian Gross
Principal
