Sunbeam Summer Camp 20-26 August 2016

Dear F.I.S. families,
 You may remember that for the last two years some F.I.S. colleagues and their children along with several FIS families travelled to the Sunbeam Children’s Foundation in Bai Wan, Guangzhou. We provided a range of activities for the children in order to develop their use of the English language in a practical and fun setting. It was tremendously rewarding for the volunteers and children alike.
 I am hoping to recruit a team of enthusiastic people from the F.I.S. community to join the 2016 Summer camp. You don’t need to have any special skills (although if you do have an interest/specialism/hobby that we can exploit – great!). All that’s required is your time, enthusiasm and good will!
 There were a range of activities on offer last year: cooking, craft, art, sports, IT programming and dance to name a few.
 The camp runs from 20 – 26th August 2016. Transportation, meals and accommodation will be provided.
 Several children from the school (including my son who is currently in Y2) came with their families last year and really enjoyed the experience of helping the Sunbeam children. They enjoyed taking part in the activities too.
 If you would like to register as a volunteer for the camp please fill in the attached form and send toddurkin@lfis.edu.hk. Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions.
 I’m sure Aiden Durkin (Y2), Manaaki Tait (Y1) and Gregor Tait (Y3), Chloe Ning (Y5), Ryan Ning (Y7) or their parents would be very happy to share their experience of Sunbeam with you.
 Many of the children in Sunbeam have said that it is the highlights of their year and an event they really look forward to.
 Best regards
 Daren Durkin. P5A Class Teacher
Sunbeam is a charity that FIS primary has been supporting for over 10 years.

Welcome back everyone !

Welcome back to school after what was a very enjoyable and exciting term 2.
Term 3 has started extremely positively with staff and students having a smile on their faces as they came through the gates ready to once again be ‘actively engaged in teaching and learning’. I am excited about the educational challenges that are ahead for this term and know you will continue to support us in our efforts to make FIS the best it can possibly be.
 
This term promises to be another very full and exciting one with the following events planned ;
Global Awareness week/ Inter-schools swimming competition / Inter-schools Athletics Day/ Inter-schools rugby competition/ French Concert /Kermess Fair/ Y5 Athletics Day/Y6 camp/ Art  Weeks on both campuses / Discovery Dome visit/Y6 visits to BPR/ Y4 liaison visit to CW/Y6 Graduation/DELF Assessments/ Race for Hunger /Y5/CM1 SCIENCE PROJECT  DAY/Reports/ Y4  starting their Mindfulness programme.
 
We are also aiming to continue our focus upon teaching and learning development across all phases of the school. As part of this process we are eagerly anticipating the visit of Mr Ian Gilbert  who will be working with the Primary teachers on classroom in-service; and we are also planning to conduct a thorough review of our Behaviour policy model  later in the term to also go across all phases of the school.
We are in the process of interviewing and appointing teachers in primary, more details on these new appointments will be available soon.

External in service; as you all know we have built in a new extensive program of in-service which covers external and internal actions; some teachers will be out of school on external in service and subsequently their class is covered by a confident and competent supply teacher; for example  the two deputy heads Mr Phillips and Ms Wakeman have regular absences to attend their management training sessions. I  just wanted to re assure you all that we book cover for the teachers , that the work is planned, completed and marked by the supply teacher.
 
Later on this tem my teachers will be conducting their Class mixing exercises. Here they will be preparing the new classes for September 2016. I will send out more details later.
