Dear Parents of Reception W,
Water
This week starts with a fun event of going to the Hilton again.
The children had such a fantastic time last time and we had a
wonderful opportunity to go again!
We have been doing some exciting experiments with water such as
examining different sorts of material to see if they absorb
coloured water. We have also been pouring water into different
sized containers and making estimates of which will hold the
most/least cups of water.
Celebration Assembly
Don’t miss out on the Celebration Assemblies this
week. Foundation and Key Stage 1 is at Tuesday 8am.
Each year group will be performing and we will be
celebrating the children’s success this year.
Our Vet
Some of the children decided that they were a bit bored with our
shop area in the classroom. As a class we made a list of things
we could turn the shop into and then we had a vote and
eliminated the options that weren’t very popular. We then
discussed what we could do for the last few options and one
option became more interesting- The Vet!
The children made all sorts of things for the vet, such as signs
to go around their neck ‘I am a vet’ and ‘I am a customer’. They
made some play money, labels for the vet and animals, and
finally homes for their animals.
After we set up where we wanted to have all the items in the vet
we practised folding clothes and wrapping up bandages so we
could keep our vet neat.
The Vet has become very popular in class and the girls have
added an animal parlour recently to continue the fun!
Favourite song of the week
Five little monkeys swinging in the tree
Along came a crocodile
As quiet as can be
One little monkey said ‘you can’t catch me’
Snap!
Four little monkeys...
Three little monkeys...
Two little monkeys...
One little monkey swinging in the tree
Along came a crocodile
As quiet as can be
One little monkey said ‘you can’t catch me’
Snap!
Missed Me!
Thanks for your support,
Sarah Wright

Dear Parents,
This will be my last letter to you and I want to express my very
sincere appreciation for having helped make this a wonderful
year for me! I always wanted to teach in an International School
“someday” and I feel so lucky that when this dream has finally
come true, it has been with such special children and amazingly
supportive parents! I have learned so much from your children
and have enjoyed the ‘international’ aspect tremendously! Of
course I am excited to go to Canada and visit my own three
children, but I have to admit to feeling very sad that my year
with this wonderful class is coming to an end. I will certainly
miss them.
A
special goodbye to Xavier, who is moving to Sharjah. We will
miss him at AAESS!
I
would also like to extend an extra thanks to the parents who
volunteered for our four field trips. You certainly helped make
them happy and successful trips for the children – and me!

Dear
Parents,
It is with
some sadness that the year is coming to a close – it has been a
pleasure spending this time with your children and observing
their growth – they are a neat bunch of kids and together make
up a great classroom! (…and I bet you can’t believe they’ll be
in Year One in September!)
We welcome
back Jana in our final week and look forward to hearing about
her adventures!
