Dear
Parents and Guardians,
The Students of the Week ending 24th November 2006
were: Beverly Omwando (Play Group), Kirstie Gitau (Nursery), Lily-Mae
Phillips (Reception), Anna Clarke (Y1), Justin Walters (Y2), Telvin
Stokes (Y3), Jamie Nicholas (Y4), Michelle Leichum (Y5) and Kylie
McKenzie (Y6). Well done, everyone!
In the Under 11 rounders
match against Mombasa Academy last Thursday, our girls played very
well with some great bowling from Yvonne Bachmann but, sadly, we
lost with a score of 4½ to 11.
The PTA Social/AGM on Wednesday
took place under the banda. The turnout was disappointingly small
and to save the PTA from disintegrating, the old committee members
who had hoped to stand down have agreed to remain for one more year.
There were some new faces, however, and everyone who attended joined
the new committee. Our PTA members for the year 2006-7 are: Mrs.
Noor Mohamed, Mrs. Galimberti, Mrs. Neugebauer, Mrs. Onyango, Mrs.
Nesbitt, Mrs. Jiwaji, Mrs. Miranda, Mrs. Sassoon, Mrs. Holding Fay
and Mrs. Soares.
Christmas stars and moons
have been decorated by the children and are for sale from class
teachers for Ksh.50. This money will go to the PTA and if there
are any left by next week they will be on sale at the concert on
Tuesday.
The Inter-house Art
Competition was judged on Wednesday and I would like to thank the
adjudicators, Mrs. Chater, Mrs. Jessop and Mr. Gannaway, for doing
this very difficult job as all the entries were quite superb. The
winning house was Chui followed by Simba and then Kifaru.
The Christmas Concert
will take place on Tuesday in the Long Room. I would like to thank
Mrs. Sassoon for coordinating the decorations with the help of Mrs.
Jiwaji. Every child in the Primary School has contributed towards
this display.
The children must be here at 5.45 pm and should
have eaten before they arrive. Early Years children are requested
to wear red and/or green while all the other children from Year
1 upwards should be in school uniform. Please send your child/children
to their classrooms on arrival. We want to start promptly at 6.00
pm.
Sports Day begins at 8.30
am sharp on Thursday with the Early Years kicking off. The children
should come to school in their PE kit and should be wearing their
house T-shirts. Parents are invited to come and support their children.
The PTA will be selling cakes so you may wish to give your children
some money to purchase these.
After school activities
will NOT take place next week. All buses will leave at 3.00 pm.
Santa will visit us on Friday
8th December and will bring presents for everyone in the Primary
School. The Early Years children, together with Y1 and 2 will meet
Santa in the Nursery at 11.00 am. The Early Years children can go
home with their parents after that but Y1 and 2 will remain for
the final assembly after which they will go back to their class
teachers to collect their reports and go home. Buses will leave
shortly after 12.00 pm.
Have a nice weekend.
Yours
sincerely
Allen
Corbet
Head of Primary
