Dear All,
Please find attached SLT meeting minutes of Week 19 for your information.
One Volunteer Experience Per Semester for G6-10
Each semester every student in G6-10 must do at least one volunteering experience and write it up on ManageBac. Do your experience early so you don’t miss out on the chance to get your Academic, Principal’s or Director’s Award!!!
At the end of the year, there are also Service Awards that will be awarded.
We still need volunteers to keep score at the first-ever International Schools of Nanjing Activities Conference (ISNAC) Basketball Tournament this weekend. We need 5 more volunteers to work as Score Keepers. Please sign up on ManageBac.
Sports Equipment Use – Lunchtime Badminton
Dear Secondary School Student Community,
The PE department fully supports your quest to be active in the gym at lunchtimes using our shared equipment. Unfortunately some/many of you are unable to respect and take care of our shared equipment.
There will be NO badminton equipment used until a solution from the students (who use the equipment) can be found to ensure respect and care is taken towards our equipment.
Please check the photo’s for evidence.
Come and see Mr Dutton if you have any ideas on how YOU can do this? (Might even be a service learning opportunity)
