ES PARENT BULLETIN
Volume 07 26 November 2009
All elementary teachers will be using blogs to replace the class newsletter that would normally go home on the
3rd Friday of every month. These teacher blogs will provide a "window" into your child's classroom. Blogging is
a new skill for many teachers so we ask that you please be patient as our teachers develop this new skill. You
can expect 4 posts within a month. You can access all elementary teacher blogs by going to http://es.ism-
online.org or by typing the teacher's last name and first initial followed by ism-online.org. (ex. smithj.ism-
online.org)
The Elementary School Annual Sports Day is scheduled for February 19th. This event is an all day event in-
volving all ES classes. Our focus is on having fun being active, cooperation, and sportsmanship. One of our
Physical Education Standards is to value physical activity for health, enjoyment, challenge, self expression,
and social interaction. Our Sports Day is designed to provide opportunities for students to make progress to-
wards the attainment of this standard. This is a fantastic full day event. There will be no regular classes or
specialist classes on the day. Classroom teachers will take their classes to a variety of challenging and fun
activities throughout the day. Specialist teachers and support staff will be the experts at each station to as-
sist each team. There will be an opening and closing ceremony as well. All parents are invited to attend and
support your child on the day by participating in the games, taking photos, and assisting as required. E.g.
turning jump ropes!
Students will also be given the opportunity to design a team logo and name to be printed onto their own
‘class t-shirt’ over the next month. These shirts have a huge visual impact and promote great team spirit
(and it also makes it easier to keep track of each class!). Although it’s not compulsory, we strongly encour-
age you to purchase one in order to make this day even more memorable.
Each child will be automatically billed to their school in December account 330 pesos for a T-shirt.
You will receive more information about the specific activities and facilities closer to the event. If you
would like to assist in the organizing of this event or on the day please contact me directly through the ES
Office or school e-mail at pekina@ismanila.org
