Dear Parents and Guardians

It has been wonderful to see students getting back to normal in the school campus. The sound of children playing at break times has largely been missing for a few years, and now we have that ‘buzz’ of children's energy and positive noise around the campus both in lessons and in the play areas. This has made such a refreshing change. In Quantum Learning we place an emphasis on environment and atmosphere, and now that we are able to have classes operating as normal without the restrictions of social distancing, classes and lessons can operate properly. Attendance has increased over the last few weeks and we are now seeing over 90% of the students in school every day. This is very encouraging, although I do ask that you continue to monitor your child(ren) for any signs of illness, and if seen, keep your child at home.

Another move to normality is the reintroduction of ECA’s. This has allowed students to enjoy the activities that have been missing for two years. We are also getting sports fixtures arranged, with friendlies against other schools, AIMS sports (Association of International Malaysian schools) competitions are being planned for later in the year, and this will hopefully mean that we will return to the healthy participation and hopefully great success on the sports field that we have seen in the past

We are still being very careful with visitors and parents coming to the campus, and I would like to remind parents that they are welcome on the school campus but only when they have an appointment or an event to attend. It was really good to see so many Primary parents at the IPC exit point this week. Parents being involved in their child's learning has been shown to be a huge influence on successful learning.

If you do have an appointment or meeting, please remember your school ID card, this is required by everyone on the campus. If you have lost or mislaid this in the last two years, please do not worry, just contact the Admissions team for a replacement.

Finally we have started planning and organising the wide range of experiences that TIS has become well known for. Please monitor your school email regularly for more details of these events, and remember that we do not send out information via the various parent Whats App groups. Official school information will continue to be distributed using the family email.

Stay safe

Peter
