Dear All,

The location of the STAFF FOLDER has been moved to provide smoother access for all.   Please bookmark this link in your browser for easy reference.

Thanks very much to Joe and Shixia for ironing out the glitches!

Dear All,

As Chair of the PD committee, I am looking for a new member to join our committed team of colleagues. Meetings take place usually twice per month during a lunch break.  Please drop me an email or stop by and see me by Monday, August 14 if you may be interested.

Good morning, Primary School Teachers,

Thank you,

Good morning,

Please note that we have 4 spots available for First Aid Training on August 26.  Please contact me by Monday, August 14 if you would like to participate in this training on campus. All costs are covered by the school.  We aim to have as many teachers as possible with this credential.

Thank you,

Arden

Dear Colleagues,

I hope that you have enjoyed a memorable summer break!

I sent everyone an Office 365 link to the Staff Folder, including the INSET / opening week schedule.  In the event that you did not receive it, I have attached it here – you don’t want to be late for breakfast 🙂

In your pigeon holes you will have received a timetable.  Please review it for accuracy and ensure that it is the same as the timetable in Veracross.  If there are any queries, please send an email to your relevant Head of Section and cc Samantha Zou.

Looking forward to a brilliant year!

Arden
