Newsletter King’s College Alicante
PRIMARY
OCTOBER 2013 / FIRST TERM
Message from the Head of Primary As this is my first introduction to a newsletter, I would like to take the opportunity to say thank you to children, staff and parents for making my first two months at King’s such a positive experience. The warm welcome, kind wishes and practical support say a great deal about our school. It has been a busy month in school with children settling well into their new classes and enjoying their learning. One of the most important events this month was the Monitoring Day. This was a new initiative for Primary and the feedback from parents and teachers alike has been very positive. The opportunity for parents to talk about the progress your child is making, to ask questions of the teacher and to discuss targets for the future was welcomed by everyone. The Day really emphasised the importance of school and parents working together in partnership to give
our children the best opportunities in their learning and to help each child reach their full potential. Next month will see further partnership opportunities as we hold three Maths workshops in school. The workshops will be led by our staff and will give parents the opportunity to find out about teaching and learning methods at King’s. Details are in the date section. Please join us if you want to see how it all ‘adds up’ at King’s! Best wishes
Mr. P.B. Sloan Head of Primary
