SPRING TERM 2022 VACATION E-NEWSLETTER

 

We have all made it to the end of what has been a very eventful term and I think we are all ready for a well-earned rest. A big thank you to you for supporting your child(ren) in school in such a positive way. The staff and I have really enjoyed these past few weeks and seeing the school full of activities. It has been such a positive experience and fills us with hope for the summer term. I am beyond grateful for your assistance and support at the just concluded Model United Nations (MUN) Conference, it was an educative and enlightening event. We vacate for the term today, 8^th April, 2022, and we will resume for the Summer Term on the 25^th of April, 2022. In the meantime, there are a few other items I need to bring to your attention, and these are listed below.

Competitions:        We commend all our children who participated and won certificates and medals in the competitions (in-school and international). Some of the competitions include the APEN Coding, COBIS Coding, COBIS Pobble Poetry, Mangahigh Mathematics, World Poetry Day, COBIS Eco Film Awards and the COBIS Arts Festival competitions.

United Kingdom Summer Trip:   Remember that the United Kingdom Trip this summer is still on! Please ensure your documents are submitted before April 30^th, 2022 to enable us give enough time to the visa interview and collection process.

COVID-19:  All the current procedures around COVID-19 in school will continue from the start of next term except stated otherwise by the Ministry of Education. Again, I thank you for your co-operation with these protocols.

Staff Celebrations:     We welcome back our staff members – Mrs. Nnadi and Mrs. Adewumi from their maternity leave. Also, we say big congratulations to our accounts officer – Mrs. Chukwukereuba and Year 1 class teacher – Mrs. Alabi on the birth of their newborns. For accounts inquiries, please contact the Head of School for the secondary school and the Deputy Head of School for the nursery and primary school information.

Examinations & Results: Our second term examinations were successful and the scripts have been sent home today. However, the termly results will be released online via the portal on Tuesday, 18^th of April, 2022. Please contact your child’s class teachers for further information.

School Uniform:  At CEDEC International School, we believe that wearing the appropriate school uniform enables children identify with the school and their schoolmates and helps reinforce a positive spirit towards their work. We hope you appreciate the many advantages of our uniform policy at school. Please ensure that our children are dressed in the appropriate uniform every school day, as this is a part of our “School Pride”.

School Meals     Just a reminder that if you want your child/ward to enjoy a hot school lunch from the 1st week of the Summer term then these need to be paid for before school resumes for the next term.
