Dear parents,
Have a wonderful weekend!
Today we close our Early Years - Grade
2 Art Exhibition and I am sure you will agree with us that the talent and
creativity on display was impressive. Thank you to all those parents who
dropped by to see our younger students artwork. This week we have also had ASA
showcases which again demonstrated a wide range of talent, commitment and
perseverance from our children. Season three ASA begins on Monday so please go
over your child’s new schedule with them if they are participating in ASAs.

Positive Discipline from Counseling
Office (repeat)
At AISC, we believe in respectful and
positive interactions between adults and children. All parents have challenges
with children’s behavior. This video overview
on Positive Parenting gives a good introduction to a more cooperative and
respectful approach to discipline and family harmony. If you would like more
information, please reach out to the Counselors for suggested readings and
strategies.
Have a wonderful weekend!
