We notice…

Hello MYP/DP Learners,

Ever wonder if your teachers notice all the great stuff you do in relation to the Learner Profile???

Well, we do! Check out the posters outside the MYP LGR from an activity teachers completed last week, focused on evidence of the Learner Profile in action around campus.

Keep doing the right things for the right reasons! We are proud of you!

Contact Ms Runte or Mr Brown for an audition extract and further information!!!

Cards for JIS Cleaners – Please sign to show your support

On Tuesday I will be flying to Jakarta – this provides us with an opportunity to get a message delivered from NIS to the cleaners still in custody in the JIS case.  I will be taking a small gift (an NIS lion) and a card for each cleaner and will give them to a JIS staff member to pass on.

There are 6 cards in the staffroom. Please take the time today to write a brief message of support in each card, or just sign your name.

There is a post-it note in each card with the cleaner’s name.

Please note that one card is the for the family of Azwar, who died while in police custody. I have also indicated this on a post-it note in case you wish to adapt your message.

I will collect the cards on Monday afternoon.

Thanks in advance.
