Dear Parents,
As we approach school resumption this September, I want you to put in place and consider these important tips to ensure a smooth, stress-free, and successful start to the new academic session:
1. Start adjusting your child’s sleep routine early-
Gradually return your child to an appropriate bedtime and wake-up time before school resumes. This will help them adjust easily to the school routine.
2. Check and replace school uniforms-
Inspect uniforms, socks, shoes and other school clothing. Replace anything that is worn out, too small or no longer presentable.
3. Get school supplies ready ahead of time-
Purchase notebooks, textbooks, writing materials, school bags and other required items early. Avoid the last-minute rush.
4. Check your child’s school shoes and bag-
Make sure shoes are comfortable, strong and properly fitted, while the school bag is suitable for your child and not unnecessarily heavy.
5. Revise important lessons with your child-
Spend a little time reviewing basic concepts from the previous class. Simple reading, writing, spelling and mental-math activities can make a big difference. All holiday assignments should be done and ready for submission.
6. Encourage reading before resumption-
Let your child develop the habit of reading for at least a few minutes every day. It helps improve vocabulary, concentration and confidence.
7. Discuss school expectations with your child-
Remind them about punctuality, good behaviour, respect for teachers and classmates, personal responsibility and the importance of paying attention in class.
8. Take care of outstanding school obligations early-
If there are outstanding fees, forms, documents or other requirements, endeavour to sort them out before resumption to avoid unnecessary delays or inconvenience.
9. Pay attention to your child’s health and personal hygiene-
Ensure your child is well-rested, properly groomed and ready physically for school. Also, check that personal items such as water bottles, handkerchiefs and hygiene supplies are available.
10. Prepare emotionally and mentally for the new session-
Talk positively about returning to school. Encourage your child, listen to their concerns and remind them that every new session is an opportunity to learn, grow and do better.
Dear parents, preparation ahead of time makes resumption easier for everyone. Let us work together to give our children a smooth, happy and productive start to the new academic session.
Wishing all our pupils and parents a successful and rewarding new school session ahead! We are getting ready to receive all of you back.
God bless you.
