Dear KJS Families,

Once again, our brilliant KJS Times team has created an engaging and informative edition. Edition 10 features pieces on incoming Vice Principal, Mr. Andy Eastwood, the PYP Exhibition, Feeding Hong Kong, and how to join the KJS times. I think you’ll agree that the KJS Times is driven by student agency, student voice, and intrinsic motivation. You can view the latest edition of the KJS Times here.

Transition Day was a huge success across the school last Friday. We thoroughly enjoyed presenting key messages to the parents of incoming Y1 students in-person, and all of our students enjoyed the extended period with their 2022/23 teachers. For those teachers that couldn’t be at KJS in-person, students were able to meet them through various technologies.

Our awe-inspiring Y6 PYP Exhibition Showcase spans two days this week. KJS students visited on Wednesday, and Y6 families are visiting from 9-11 a.m. in-person today. Our Y6 students have been and continue to be incredibly enthusiastic about sharing and celebrating their learning. I think the same excitement can also be seen in our staff members, who have provided strong support for our students throughout this journey.

 

Kind regards,

Dr Jamie Schmitz

Principal
