PYP 8 News

Week of 5th June, 2017


Dear Parents,

This is the final full week of school and we have a lot of activities planned to go out with a bang. Tomorrow, Tuesday 6th June, is the Fun Afternoon at Jardim Europa from 16:00 to 18:00. Please remember to bring socks for the Meias do Bem drive and whatever item your child signed up to bring (PYP 8 Beta/Sigma: juice; Omega: plates, cups, napkins, plastic cutlery). Friday, 9th June, is Pajama Day where students can come dressed in their favorite sleep wear. There will also be a movie shown in the afternoon, which students will get to vote for the movie they want to watch.

This week PYP 8 will be doing the final round of SATs. Like the previous exams, they will not be used to determine grades, but are used for internal diagnostic purposes. Please ensure students get a good night sleep and a good breakfast. Below is the schedule.
