Outbound!

We had such a fun day at Outbound in Ancol! It was a long bus ride to get there, but the kids were troopers! Something about field trips makes them want to eat their snacks by 7:30 though! We made it there around 9:00, and started getting harnessed by 9:30.

After getting harnesses on, they were led in some group stretches. Then, they hit the course eagerly! 

It was great to see all of the kids encouraging each other as they came to difficult sections, or noticed that a friend was nervous. Everyone tried their best, and made it through at least three of the courses. A few of the fast finishers were able to make it all the way through the fourth course too! 

Parents, thanks for trusting us to take your kids and suspend them on ropes between trees ;)

Field Trip Return Time

Dear Parents, 

                                                                         

On Thursday, 16 May we will be returning from our field trip at 2:00 instead of 1:00.  We decided to extend it an hour longer because of the time it takes to get to Ancol.  If your child has Mandarin Club or Go Green Art on Thursday, this will take place from 2:00-3:00.  There will be no academic club on this day.  Thus, please pick up your child from school at 2:00 on 16 May (or 3:00 if your child has mandarin or art club).

Thanks!

-- Mrs Katie and Ibu Putri

Student Led Conferences - Pictures!

We hope that you all enjoyed your time spent in the life of a Grade 1 student! Walking their halls, sitting in their seats (or on the floor!), playing their games, and getting a window into what their days look like. It brought us such joy to see how their faces swelled with pride as they led you around and
showed you what they know. 

I tried to sneak around and get pictures of everyone - I'm sure you noticed. . . I wasn't that sneaky! :) 

Enjoy!

Lastly, thank you for the feedback that we're receiving on the Reflection papers. We're making notes to make next years' better. We're sorry the time was rushed for the amount of stations. Our time was cut back by an hour this year, compared to last year. Hopefully we can share your feedback with administration, and have a longer time next year :)
