Reminder about Clearance Forms and Leaving Procedures etc…
Dear All,
As we enter the home straight here are a couple of reminders about the Clearance Forms and Leaving Procedures for our departing students in case you are asked questions or are new to the process.
- Each leaving student in every grade must complete a Clearance Form. The Parent needs to complete the whole form for PYP, and for MYP/DP the front page is for parents and the other two sheets for the students to complete. (Non native speaking parents may need some assistance)
- Forms can be obtained either from Main Reception, Admissions or downloaded off the website.
- On the student’s last day – in exchange for their completed form we will hand over the studentship letter in PYP and transcripts in MYP/DP. This is done by the Ladies on Main Reception with support from Admissions.
- It is important that all MacBooks are handed into IT for them to clear off all school settings and software. Before this is done EVERYTHING must be backed up as it will be wiped clean and they will not be able to retrieve anything. I would encourage all leaving students in Grade 5 and MYP to go and ask IT if they have any questions about this – especially in terms of the best time to get this done.
- The S2 reports will be out on Thursday 16th and not before.
- All leaving families must download and print them off, as once they have left NIS they will no longer have access to Veracross.
- Year Books will be handed out on the last day to all students. If you have missing students or ones who have left early please arrange for them to be signed by their friends as this is much appreciated. Over the holidays we will arrange for them to be forwarded to the address on the Clearance Form. Please bring them to Samantha or Admissions Office.
- If any student has a special request or needs help please send them either to Admissions or to see Samantha Zhou who will arrange an appointment with Arden.
- The Admissions Office remains open throughout the summer.
- To avoid problems, please remind any students that if they are leaving and want a full refund of the school fees the must let us know in Admissions before Monday 13th June.
NB The last Weekly Bulletin will be on Friday 10th. As Thursday is a holiday please get your articles onto the news site by the end of tomorrow at the latest.
Any questions please come and see us in Admissions Office, call Sue on 13809022693 or email at admissions@nanjing-school.com
Thanks
Sue, Monica, Jane, Grace and Ahna

Last chance to complete Athletics Survey
This message is for everyone in Gr5 – 12 but especially for Grade 10 who were on Work experience last week so might have missed the request to complete the survey for feedback on the Athletics Program.
If you have not yet completed the survey, please complete it today. If you did not take part in a sport, this will take about 1 minute. If you did take part in a sport it should take about 5 minutes. Your feedback helps us find ways to improve the opportunities we provide. Thank you.
