ATTENDANCE Regular attendance is important to give stability to your son/daughter and to avoid unnecessary disturbances in the classroom. SICK – avoid sending your son/daughter if s/he is sick. This will help avoid both the teacher and other pupils getting sick too. Parents are to send an sms on school mobile (79556401) if their son/daughter is sick: otherwise s/he will be noted as absent without a valid reason. GOING ABROAD – copy of flight ticket MUST be handed in to the school’s secretary office.
PARENTS All on board: This is the secret to our school’s success! Parents are encouraged to help out in tasks or with innovative ideas they are comfortable with. Parents are encouraged to come and talk to SMT if they have a problem: grumbling outside school doors will solve nothing. Parents are encouraged to help out their children with their studies to help them strive more.
SCHOOL BLOG Notes are not handed out to the pupils anymore. All upcoming events, photos, and news can be found on the school blog www.ourhappyschool.wordpress.com Data Protection: Parents can opt out that their pupils appear in class/school photos, magazines, blog if they have a valid reason.
