Bring and Buy Sale

On Tuesday 7th May, the House Captains organised and hosted a 鈥楤ring and Buy鈥� sale. The purpose of this sale was to raise money for our community partner schools. The House Captains also linked this to the Sustainable Development Goal – 鈥楻esponsible production and consumption鈥�, reasoning that it is better for people to donate their unwanted goods for others to enjoy rather than have them go to landfill. They also made a connection to the goal – 鈥楻educed Inequalities鈥�, identifying that our community partner schools do not have as many resources as we do and would be helped by our donation. We had a great number of donations and many people attended the sale. In total we raised 43,715 rupees to donate to our community partner schools. Well done to the House Captains and thank you to all of you who participated!

Year 5 and 6 Exit Point

Year 5 and 6 had their Exit Point for the 鈥楽ustainable Development Goal鈥� unit on Tuesday 7th May. Year 5 has been exploring the goal 鈥楻educed Inequalities鈥�. Their final project was to produce a piece of artwork to advocate for one inequality, create a website with information about their chosen inequality and then present it to their parents. They also hosted a silent auction for their artwork and will donate any money made to our community partner school.

Year 6 focused on the goals of ‘Life on land鈥�, 鈥楢ffordable clean energy鈥�, 鈥楥limate Action鈥� and 鈥楽ustainable cities鈥�. They made sustainable cities using recycled materials and designed posters with information about the demographics of their city and how sustainable their cities were. They presented these to their parents who were very impressed by the students’ wealth of knowledge.

Early Years Fun Day

Our Early Years children have been eagerly counting down the days to their family day which was held on Monday at the British Embassy. The children, their parents, teachers and 8 Y9 student volunteers had a very memorable day filled with fun and laughter. The day started with some circle time and parachute games and then the children did a range of enjoyable activities together with their parents. Afterwards, it was the parents’ turn to challenge themselves! They had lots of fun undertaking an egg and spoon race, sack race and paper aeroplane throwing. It was great to see everyone enjoying the day and making special memories with family and friends.

Junior Mathematical Challenge

Sahas and Jeongyoon both qualified for the UKMT Maths Olympiad due to an exceptional performance on the Junior Mathematical Challenge. Of all the thousands of worldwide entries for this prestigious competition only 1,200 are selected for the UKMT Maths Olympiad, so this is a real achievement for Sahas and Jeongyeon and the whole maths department. Well done!

End of Year Assessments

Year 7-10 are getting close to their end of year assessments. Due to their humanities trip to Pokhara after half term (27-31 May), Year 8 start their assessments on Monday, whereas the other three year groups will start their assessments in the week after the half-term break. Timetable and revision advice was sent to parents at the beginning of the week and can be viewed by following the link .

PIS Additional Learning Needs and Neurodiversity

Thank you to the ALN team for organising this very well attended event this morning. It was standing room only in the library as we had an even larger turnout than we expected and it is always encouraging when the Parent Information Sessions the school provides are well received by our parents.

IGCSE and A level Options

Following provisional choices earlier in the year, Year 9 and 11 are now making informed choices based on the published option blocks. The good news is that at A Level, due to anticipated demand, we have been able to add a second media studies group, allowing virtually all students to select their first 4 choices and all returning students can select four of their top five choices. At IGCSE, without a 鈥渇ree鈥� study block to add flexibility to the timetable, it is always more challenging, but the addition of a second business studies class for the first time this year (as well as the introduction of IGCSE photography) mean that over 99% of final allocations can be from the top 5 choices made by students earlier in the year.

Thank you to those parents who have confirmed that their child/children will be leaving 91传媒 at the end of the term, i.e. Friday 28th of June 2024. Adequate notice is a requirement and avoids financial penalties for parents.听 It also allows us to refund your security deposits on time and helps us to plan ahead for the new term.

The deadline for providing the formal notice of the withdrawal of your child/children is Friday, 31st of May 2024. The notice of withdrawal can be provided either by email or written letter to Ms. Manisha Bajracharya at the Admissions Office.

After submitting the notice of withdrawal, parents will receive a clearance form to complete the withdrawal procedure nearer the end of Term 4. Please let Ms. Bajracharya in the admissions office know should you require any school documents/references to provide to the new school.

Late notice of withdrawal (or providing no notice) and failure to submit the form or return the school鈥檚 resources may fully or partially affect refunding the security deposit.
