Dear Parents/ Guardians: GOOD health to you!
A JOYful and PEACEful WELCOME to all! :-) Peace is
our value for June, Respect for July. We always start with
Peace because this is our goal: to live and learn peacefully.
We "begin with the end in mind" ( S. Covey .)
It's another new school year filled with wonderful
opportunities for our children and the JOY families. We have
spent the first two weeks getting to know each other in school,
getting used to routines and ground rules and the SMILE
WEEK campaign. It's a friendly contest" to see who smiles
the most not only to their classmates but to others as well.
Each student gets stickers to stick onto the smiley person's
name tag, the one who gets the most, wins! :-)
Here are other reminders and information:
1) ID pictures have been taken. We will distribute ID cards
as soon as they are done (& when payment P150 is
made,office please). Those with old IDs, you only need to
renew insurance for P100.
2) Each child has received an official CALENDAR OF
ACTIVITIES pasted in the white notebook. Please refer to this
for your guidance especially for monthly examination
schedules starting this Prelim Exam. Letters are sent for
activity details and info.
3) Table Manners workshop July 18-22: ALL students are
to eat lunch INSIDE their classroom with their adviser to
practice table etiquette. Please cut up pieces of meat ahead
or send a butter knife to use. Good eating habits help make
healthy habits. Respect for others and food is also
practiced in polite eating habits.
4) The school is your partner in health education especially
this July, Nutrition month. As such, please help us check on
the following:- Your child brings water ( his/ her own
container is a must so we lessen the washing of glasses in the
canteen, saves water, saves the planet) to hydrate, every
change of subject is a chance to drink.
- extra tshirt everyday until March, so they will be fresh and
clean even after active play ( we have Intrams this July so
there will be extended practices for sports and presentations)

preschool to Gr.6 girls,ankle length for the rest, rubber shoes
with white socks every time jogging pants are worn (helps
keep off mosquitoes)

- clean nails, proper haircut ( elem to HS boys should have
clean cut hair, monthly haircut is necessary, hair color and
extensions are not allowed at these levels)
- Anti-mosquito lotion or stick-ons the school will increase
the rate of spraying it does to kill mosquitoes especially this
rainy season, we are also screening the windows (on the side
facing the property walls) of the Elem.just to add some
measure of barrier against insects coming from the open fields
outside.
- keep a sick child at home for his/her safety and protect
