AWARDS ASSEMBLY

Congratulations to all of you!

Grade 7 donation to Asilo San Vicente de Paul 

I am very proud of how much effort and love Grade 7 put into The Guy Fawkes event. We manage to collect more than $500.00 for charity. Today, we went with some of the students to visit the Asilo San Vicente de Paul. They lived a unique experience as they saw how some of the elder ladies that have no family live. They understood that not all salvadorean grandmothers are as lucky as theirs. They share an afternoon of joy, the ladies were happy talking about their lives and sharing their stories, but most of all they were impressed that some teenagers remembered to visit them for Christmas. We all promise to go back, and to continue working for those in need. Thank you Grade 7, and Mrs. Canales for coming with us. You all did a fantastic job.

Guy Fawkes night!!!

Here are some pictures. Thank you soooooo much to all of those who helped make this event a success. Special thanks to: Rodrigo Arguello, Gariel Aragon, Beatriz Pallás, Ana Sofía Perdomo, Martha Julia Espinal, Kenia Agreda, Maria Fernanda Safie, Beatriz Narvaez, Cristina Orellana, Ms. Virdi and my special thanks to Ale who helped me for more than 3 hours behind the stall and all of you who played!!!!
 We had a GREAT success, still need to count how much money we raised. 

My special thanks to all class of 2020 parents, without your help we could have never achieved such success.

Enjoy some of the pictures.

Message from the Humanities department

Santa Tecla, November 2014

Dear Parents / Guardian

Grade 7 History Trip to San Andrés and Casa Blanca Tuesday 16th December

This term Grade 7 students have been studying a history unit on Central America and the Conquistadors. To complement their studies the Humanities Department has organised a trip to the archeological sites at San Andrés and Casa Blanca on Tuesday 16th of December. Students will depart from school at 8:05 a.m. (period2) and return to school by the end of the school day (approximately 1:50 p.m.). Whilst on the trip, students will have the opportunity to visit both sites and take a guided tour.

The cost of the trip will be $12. This includes transport and entrance to archeological sites.

Students will need to

• come dressed in their PE shirts with jeans and tennis shoes
• remember to use sunscreen
• bring a waterproof coat or jacket
• bring a packed lunch and water  
• bring a clipboard, coloured pencils, pencil with eraser and pen to complete work during the visit.

The above items are recommended to ensure your son or daughter’s wellbeing and enjoyment whilst on the trip. We would be grateful for your support and cooperation in ensuring that each student is suitably dressed and properly equipped on their arrival at school that day. The trip will go ahead as planned even if it rains, therefore it is essential for each student to wear suitable clothing. As with all school trips, excellent behaviour is expected at all times.

Whilst on the trip, the students will be accompanied by history staff members and POLITUR security.

This is a great opportunity for students to gain a better insight into some of the events they have been learning about in lessons and we strongly encourage all students to attend. If you have any questions about the trip please contact Mrs. Duarte (carmenvillalta@abc-net.edu.sv). Please complete the reply slip below and ask your child to return it with the payment to Mrs. Duarte in (H3) by Tuesday 2nd of December 2014.

Yours faithfully

Carta a nuestros padres de ICT KS3

 

Estimados Padres,

Fue un gusto poder platicar con muchos de ustedes esta semana acerca del progreso que sus hijos e hijas han hecho en ICT durante la primera mitad del año escolar.  Ambas noches fueron muy concurridas y desafortunadamente no tuvimos la oportunidad de platicar con todos. Esta carta es para actualizarles acerca de las experiencias y habilidades que sus hijos e hijas han practicado este año escolar.  Aquí se explica el recuadro de retroalimentación que se mandará a casa con sus hijos; es para que los padres que no tuvieron la oportunidad de entrevistarse con nosotros se puedan informar acerca de su significado.

Letter to our KS3 ICT Parents

Dear Parents,

 It was great to speak to many of you both this week and last and in doing so discuss the progress your children have made in ICT during the first half of the school year. These were both very busy parent evenings and unfortunately we didn't get to speak to everyone. This letter will serve as a general update on the experiences your children have engaged in so far this school year, as well as an explanation of the feedback we are sending home, for those parents we haven't yet spoken to. http://abc-lrc.blogspot.com/2014/02/letter-to-our-ks3-ict-parents.html

IGCA are asking Grade 6 to bring rulers, We will record the number of items collected and there will be awards for the most collected. 

 Please bring in something!
