Dear PYP team
With the sweltering heat still lingering and the weather forecast for a weeks worth of heavy rain, the green gym will become a popular escape during lunch time. Can we please ask that you take a few minutes prior to releasing students for lunch, to discuss the class essential agreements and how these positive behaviors relate to break times and the use of other areas of the school, such as the gym.
Thank you for your support.
PE Department

Week 1
Grade 9 – 12 students: Is there a sport that you enjoy participating in? Why not pass on your knowledge and enjoyment of that sport to our younger students? Sign up to be an Assistant coach for a CISSA season and get going on meeting your C&S or CAS goals. Speak to Mr Clarke for more info.
Good Morning!
A quick clarification about your email signatures. When you send an email to anyone without @nanjing-school.com on the end of their address, there is automatically attached to it a digital business card signature. It looks like this:
It allows our emails to be whitelisted by those who receive them more frequently than going into the receiver’s Spam box, not to mention gives our emails a more professional veneer. We recommend that whatever signature you choose to put in your emails at least indicate your full name and role at the school, but of course we do leave it up to you. This is something good to keep in mind in discussions with students about their own email etiquette when using the school email. Happy Emailing!
