Missing iPad

Hi! One of our grade 4 students has lost an iPad mini. It has a mint cover that can be opened and closed. It has a picture of her face on the front. Please let us know if you found it. Thank you!

Missing iPhone

Miss Keus’ iPhone 5s disappeared somewhere between the rugby field and the theatre on Sunday, October 25th. It’s in a blue Survivor case with a name label on the back, and its screen is cracked. Lots of creative cycle videos contained within. If you happen to find it, or have top-secret information about its whereabouts, please see Mrs. Tyoschin or Miss Keus. Thanks!

G6-8 Inter-house football next Thursday

If you can remember the good old days when jumpers were used for goalposts and a wet football broke your foot, then you’re probably too old to take part in next week’s inter-house competition. If you are in G6-8 however, then this could be your chance to delight others with your exquisite passing and mesmerising dribbling.

Interested Grade 6-8 footballers should contact their house captains / leaders asap to sign up. G9-12 players will play in Semester Two.

Teams of 7-10 players (only 7 on at a time).

One girls team and one boys team per house.

Colin says "Come on everyone, lets see some lovely football next week".

Interhouse Chess – an incredibly close contest!!

The Interhouse chess took place yesterday and it went right to the wire!! Ultimately only one point divided all 3 houses with Wutaishan just winning it by half a point over Taiping with Xuanwu a further half point behind. Well done to all players, the standard of play was very high in the very tense speed chess format. This means that Wutaishan stretch their lead to 50 points as we approach the PYP Dance competition this week and the music knowledge competition in Week 13. The current running scores are below:
