Welcome back – Term two!

I hope you all had a good holiday (though for me it went WAY too fast!). This term we have to fit a 10 week syllabus into what to all intents and purposes is only a 7 week term! PANIC!



It is therefore important that students miss class as LITTLE AS POSSIBLE! We are rehearsing pieces to do for Parent Day and, as with the Year End plays, if one child is missing, it affects the rehearsal dramatically. Your child is not simply a ‘face in a crowd’ in Helen O’Grady performances, but will always have a role, with lines to speak, and anyone missing at any given time is like a ‘missing link’ and makes it difficult for the rest of the cast to perform.



This term is also peppered with holidays which make ‘long-weekends’ (a teachers nightmare!) so please note the following classes affected:



Brebner Lower Primary / Heuwelkruin Studios / Universitas-Wes Studios:



Monday and Tuesday 26th and 27th April are holidays – we will not be able to have class those days.



While Saturday is a public holiday, I hope that none of the Academy families will be taking that entire week (26 April to 2 May) off! IF you have planned to be away from Bloem that whole week PLEASE, PLEASE let me know. I will be able to make up the Monday class by having Monday’s Parent Day on

MONDAY 7TH MAY.



As school closes on Wednesday 9th, I would need to know if Tuesday’s Parent Day could be on TUESDAY 8TH MAY.

Tuesday parents, let me know pls!

So here's to a great Term Two!
