Dear Parents,
We are in the last stretch of the 1st term as quizzes are finished off and the senior students complete their pre-mock examinations. We are happy that the cooler weather is upon us and that there is a more cooperative atmosphere around the school. Some students are feeling the cold however during the early morning time so please avail of the winter uniform.
It has been a productive 1st term and we hope that there has been much progress in each of our students. Now as the final quizzes and exams are finishing teachers turn their hands to completing the 1st term reports. All of us like to get a good report. I never met a child or a person who liked to get a bad report. We always dread getting reports in the fear that it is a bad one. The most important report that anyone can get is not getting ‘A’s but actually that a person has tried their best. There is an old saying that ‘the Good is the enemy of the Best’. We may not get a good report but if we try our best and it is recognised then this is a good report. We hope that these coming reports will help you as parents to give necessary encouragement where needed to help our dear children to improve in the needed areas.
