- As you will have seen in the school newsletter it is now possible for parents, younger children and other family members to borrow from our library. By registering for a family borrowing card you can borrow two books from any section of the library, including the new Parent Collection which contains books about healthy living, behaviour management, fun art activities and days out for children in Hong Kong. The library is open for family borrowing at these times…
To register for a family borrowing card please complete the form found on the school website’s communications page. For any questions please contact Emily Jeves jevese2@beaconhill.edu.hk
- Year 3 children will have a Christmas party in the last week of term. At the party the children will give a present to a secret friend. You will get letters regarding this next week.
- Well done to all the children in Year 3 who remember to bring fruit and vegetables to school for snack on ‘Fruity Friday’.
- Please remember that we have a no nut policy at BHS due to some children having severe allergies. This includes peanut butter sandwiches and nuts in cookies or cakes.
- Now the weather is turning cooler please be aware that it often gets a lot warmer throughout the day. Therefore please dress your child in layers that can be removed as necessary.
