Mini Golf

Unfortunately, due to adverse weather conditions miniature golf had to be postponed.

Hopefully a new date will be arranged as soon as possible. 

World Book Day

Today, the Primary Section celebrated World Book Day.

5L had the opportunity to read to Prep, Form 1 and Form 2 students.

Mr Evan’s also came to our class yesterday and read extracts from two of his favourite children’s books. 

One of which was very popular and several students asked to take home to read in their personal time.

Have a look at the ‘Class Photographs’ page for 5L in action.

Exams

It is has been a very busy week in 5L with the Primary Checkpoint Examinations being the focus.

As mentioned previously, I am very proud of the way in which the students have conducted themselves, not only this week but during previous weeks of revision and learning. They have been a credit to themselves.

Congratulations Form 5! 

Cambridge Checkpoint Examinations

I would like to take the opportunity to wish all Form 5 students the best of luck for the Form 5 Exams taking place this week. 

A few reminders:

• Students should arrive in plenty of time for the start of each exam. The exam will start at the stated time on the timetables provided.
• All equipment must be in a clear pocket as pencil cases etc will not be allowed into the exam hall. 
• Each student should go to the bathroom before the exam and try to bring a bottle of water with them. 
• All work must be done in pen including drawing and must be done using a blue or black pen. 
• As soon as students enter the exam hall they must not talk and must not turn round during the exam.

Every student in 5L has continued to display a fantastic dedication to their studies and I am extremely proud that individuals have taken on board feedback and worked hard to improve various areas of their learning. 

I know that everyone will perform to the best of their ability.

Stay calm and do yourself proud!

Good luck!!

Lisbon Sports Tournament

Well done to all students who competed at the Lisbon Sports Tournament. 

It was fantastic to see such great talent on display and the students performed extremely well.

Congratulation to the Boys Division 5 Football team who finished in 6th position. 

A massive well done must go to the Girls Division 5 Basketball team who finished in 2nd place after a fiercely contested final game. I was extremely proud of everyone involved and finishing 2nd was beyond my expectations.

Well done ladies! 

Last days of revision...

Even though I am at the Lisbon Sports Tournament on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, I have asked all students to ask questions on the blog or email me directly for any last minute support. I will reply to their queries as quickly as possible. 

Monday will be a full day of revision for everyone.

All students in 5L received a copy of the exam timetable for next week. I have also asked that a copy via email is sent to parents tomorrow. 

Good Luck!

Good luck to all students representing the school at the Lisbon Sports Tournament.

I hope everyone has an enjoyable time!

Summer Term!

Welcome back to all students for their final term in the Primary Section of OBS!

I hope everyone visiting the Blog had an enjoyable Easter break.

The students in Form 5 have now entered an intensive period of the academic year. Next week they will sit the Cambridge Checkpoint Examinations for English, Mathematics and Science. They have worked extremely hard up to this point and I am very proud of how they have displayed a responsible and dedicated attitude towards personal revision.

Keep up the hard work everyone, only a few more days of revising left!!

Play Scripts

Some students asked me if they could take home the play script to learn their lines over the Easter break. 

There will be plenty of time after the Checkpoint Examinations for students to learn their lines in class, and at home, as this will be the primary focus of the year group. 

I would urge students to maintain concentration on their revision of English, Mathematics and Science to maximise the results they will achieve in the Checkpoint. 

Some students decided not to take their script home and therefore will receive it after Easter. 

Happy Revising!! 

Parents Evening

Thank you to all parents who attended the Parents Evening this week.

I hope everyone has an enjoyable and relaxing Easter break.
