Enjoy the break! No school from October 21-25, 2013. Classes resume on Monday, October 28, 2013. It will be a ‘D’ Day.
ES ‘Out of Uniform’ Day—October 31 and November 1

Pants/slacks/shorts—good condition
-
Shirts/blouses—sleeves & midriff required, appropriate logos only
-
Skirts/dresses/jumpers—sleeves required, modest length
-
Shoes—sneakers, street shoes or leather sandals with back strap

Hats must be worn all the time when playing outside during recess or during PE classes
Parent Conferences – providing feedback:
We would appreciate hearing your feedback about October parent conferences, especially in relation to involving students and about the online booking program. You can complete the short survey here.
Leaving ISB at the End of the First Semester?
Parents of students who are not returning to ISB after semester 1 need to notify the ES Office, K. Tina (tinaratr@isb.ac.th) as soon as possible and fill out the Notice of Withdrawal from ISB Form to enable us to process school records for their next school. Thank you for your attention to this important matter.
ES After School Activities Update
Please note that next week there will be no ASA in session during October break. All ASA will resume on Monday, October 28th.
Most of ASA have already hosted their 4th session so there are no longer any changes permitted. I am in the office daily from 1:30pm – 3:30pm if you have any questions or concerns. Enjoy your holiday

ISB is a Nut-free Campus
As stated on p. 32 of the Parent Student Handbook, ISB is a nut-free campus. We have many students at our school with serious nut allergies. In order to keep them safe, we do not allow any kind of nuts on our campus at any time. This includes the snacks and lunches that you might send to school with your child. Thank you for your cooperation and support in keeping our children safe.

After School Supervision – Reminder
Please ensure you know where your child is each afternoon and that maids and nannies understand ISB policy around supervision after school. For safety’s sake, ES students MAY NOT be on campus after school unless supervised by an adult. Thank you for your cooperation.
Using the Playground
Families are welcome to use the ISB playgrounds after school hours, with supervision. However, during the school day from 7:00 am to 2:00 pm, the playgrounds are to be used only by students for scheduled recess. This includes the PK/Kinder playground. After 1:00 PK dismissal, the playground should only be used by Kindergarteners for their scheduled recess. Your cooperation is appreciated.
