Dear Parents,
Next week is our last week
together for 2017! What a wonderful half year it has been in the Elementary
school. Next week, as you are aware, we celebrate the holiday season together
with a series of winter performances. We look forward to seeing all of you there
- please see below regarding bringing babies or toddlers.
Winter Concerts next week!
Next week we have our end of
2017 Winter Performances. These will all be in the FAC Theatre and will begin
at 2pm. We are so looking forward to welcoming parents and family there. For
the upcoming winter performances, children should wear holiday inspired
clothing; nice clothes in holiday colors-red, green, blue, gold, white.
Should you be bringing a toddler or baby with you, please
remember to use the upstairs space outside the theatre doors should your young
child be restless or need a break. Our Elementary students have worked very
hard to prepare for these performances and appreciate a thoughtful audience.
Calling for Kitchen Supplies!
We are looking for donations for
the ES kitchen and/or Mud Kitchen - if you are departing Chennai, we will
gladly accept any kitchen items, particularly bowls, large kitchen utensils,
wooden spoons etc! Please feel free to bring these to the ES Reception. Thank
