Soon we will be getting organized for ASA cycle 3. Grade 10 and 11 students are invited to contact me before Friday March 6th if you wish to organize and run your own ASA.
After School Activities
Cycle 2 ASAs will finish on Friday March 13th. Currently we are putting together cycle 3 ASAs based on the survey monkey teachers completed at the beginning of the year. When we have the ASA catalog finished I will publicise it so that you are aware of your ASA commitment. If any teacher would like to change their ASA you are welcome to contact me, and if any teacher not scheduled to do an ASA in cycle 3 would like to do so, you are also welcome to contact me. More info will follow the week after CNY.

Assembly Reminder
This Friday we will hold our annual S1 Awards Assembly. Please be reminded to report directly to the PAC, as we have been doing for the past few weeks. It is critical that you arrive before 8am, sans backpacks!
Here are some handy ways to be on-time:
-Come early and enjoy the awkward silence of the PAC before everyone else arrives!
-Walk faster. Less talk more walk. Think of the calories you’ll burn!
-Ignore your friends in the morning. You can have a dramatic make-up session at break!
-Visualize the embarrassing “walk of shame” to your seat as you squeak open the theatre door during a powerful moment of silence during the assembly. Ouch!
Also, attached to this announcement is the seating plan for tomorrow. We have made some slight alterations to accommodate our proud parents. Have a look!
Thanks!
The Student Council Talent Show is coming

The Student Council
Locks for locking lockers
MYP/DP students, please be advised: Having a functional lock on you locker is not an option, it’s a must! Not having your locker locked properly could result in theft, vandalism, or 47 of our friends stuffing bags in there because they can’t be bothered to walk the extra steps to their own locker. To get a functioning lock and/or to have your locker repaired you can contact Ms. Zoe (who works just inside Mr. Langston’s office), your homeroom teacher, or even Mr. Bratton. You have until Monday lunch to make this happen, then… the crackdown will commence. You have been warned…
Yearbook homeroom group photos and individual mugshots
Please put it on your calendar that the photographer will be at school on Wednesday, March 4. He will be taking individual mugshots of new students and will also be taking the homeroom group photos. Details will be given during INSET. Please e-mail me a.s.a.p. if there are any conflicts or requests concerning specific homerooms. Thanks.
