Welcome to a full week of learning and fun! This week will be a full week of working hard in all classes and maintaining routines and structure for our students.

Students will be taking home their midterm reports during this week. This is a midpoint check-in. It was a challenge as most of this was during online instruction.

Welcome to Week 4 of online learning. As we enter this week, it is natural for kids to begin feeling restless and fatigued with online learning.

We want to be sure kids are feeling well emotionally and are positive about their learning sessions. Please communicate with your child’s teacher if you need support or have questions or concerns. We look forward to returning to in-person learning very soon.

Welcome to the second half of Term 1. We are celebrating Literacy Week next week so please be on the lookout for more information for the week’s events. We will be encouraging the love of reading and language during the week.

Please discuss with your child the importance of keeping their masks on and being as socially distant as they can.

Welcome to November

Nov 02,2020

Welcome to November. We celebrated a fun day with Halloween celebrations – some spooky science activities and trick or treating. It was a fun day before KS2-KS4 begin exams. Remember a good night’s sleep and breakfast are very important components to set children on the path to success in their midterm exams. This is the first exam for many children in months so helping them to relax will also help ensure confidence in these challenging times.

Preparations have begun to plan parent meetings for November 15th to ensure safety and social distancing for all involved. More information will be shared about how these meetings will be held this year in unique circumstances.

Thanks for al your support of the school’s protocols and requirements to help keep everyone safe and healthy.

We have ended a very successful Environmental Awareness Week with students becoming more aware of how they impact the environment and small steps we can do to help. We held a successful plant sale sponsored by the student council in Key Stage 2. We would like to thank all the students and parents for supporting the student-led initiative.

Students of any year group can check out books from the library during their break or lunchtime. They will need permission from their teacher to go to the library outside of their library time. There are some wonderful new additions to the library collection in all reading levels.

Please be sure your child is wearing a mask upon entering school and has extras available in case of lost, misplaced, or dropped mask. This helps us to maintain our level of safety for all. We appreciate the home-school partnership in supporting our protocols.

Second week of school

Oct 01,2020

This week we have begun to get deep into our first academic units. Our settling in time is over and we are heavily focused on our learning. Break times are extremely important – the need for sun, fresh air, food, and water.

Please send your child with enough food and water for the day as there is no access to the water dispensers and limited canteen access. The classroom temperatures are set at 24° and windows and/or doors are open for ventilation. If your child gets cold at times, please send a light pullover with them to keep in their cubby.

Thank you for your support as we being the month of October!

Hello parents to the last week of learning! It feels so odd to be writing the word June and there are no kids in school to celebrate these last days. Many year groups will be planning for small events this week so please pay close attention to any emails from your child’s teachers. Next week we will be collecting all books that are checked out from the school and at that time you can pick up any remaining personal items belonging to your child.
We wish you a wonderful, calm and healthy summer! Thanks for all your support of school and in these challenging times staying engaged and supportive.

Best wishes for a wonderful summer.

Perseverance! This is where we are now in the final weeks of distance learning. It takes perseverance for parents, students, and teachers to make this final push towards the end of the academic school year. Please pay close attention to emails from coordinators regarding student participation and upcoming information for the end of the term.

Library books can be returned any time as well as we will be collecting materials that need to be returned to the school. Your help is greatly appreciated.

I know it’s an easy time to turn off and we are all being pulled in many directions, so please communicate if you are feeling overwhelmed or need assistance in any area. Thanks for your support and we wish you a wonderful week.

May 06,2020

We are now entering May and spring is all around us. The sights and sounds of spring lead us to know there is still happiness and rejuvenation around us. This may be one of the most challenging times in our personal histories and our families are showing perseverance and courage in these times. Trying to keep students engaged can be challenging at times. Please feel free to reach out to anyone here at Windrose Academy if you need assistance, advice or even just a friendly voice. We are here to support our famillies and we will all emerge a strong community after these trying times.

Happy Ramadan to all our Windrose community. We hope this month is a blessed month for all. We are now using our Ramdan schedules for online learning. This is an important time to keep your children on a structured day and keep them engaged in their learning this month.

A huge show of appreciation for our Windrose faculty and staff who have been keeping learning alive and meaningful. Parents have been true partners in this unchartered journey. Students will reap the benefits of everyone’s effort and work in partnership.

If you have questions about this month’s schedules, please let your teacher or coordinators know.

Have a wonderful week!

Apr 13,2020

As we move into another week of e-learning, we hope you and your family are finding a routine that works best for you and your circumstances. It ie helpful for children to keep some sense of normalcy and calmness in these times.

One way to help ease fears is to talk with them about what is happening in the world from a factual point of view. I found this article very helpful especially for small children.

Talking about COVID with your child

Our teachers have been working nonstop to keep your children engaged with school and learning. The whole world is experiencing events like never before so we are all in a learning mode ourselves as well. We approach each day with children at the forefront of all decisions and what is best for them at these times. Please feel free to reach out if you need support.

Have a peaceful week.

Mar 22,2020

Welcome to the second week of distance learning.

There are a few reminders to make the process easier for you at home:

1) Please check your email daily and encourage KS2/3/4 to check their emails and Google Classroom as well.

2) Be in contact with your child’s teacher if you have any questions or concerns. We want to make sure all students are connected and engaged daily in school.

3) Don’t pressure your children too much. This is a stressful time and we are all trying out best efforts to keep lessons ongoing and provide opportunities for your children daily.

Please try to maintain some positivity each day with some music, cooking, physical activity, some games and/or some reading. We look forward to seeing the students back very soon.

Mar 11,2020

Patience and flexibility are the keywords these days! We have had to make adjustments to our schedules. Please remember that Thursday is a day off due to forecasted weather events. The Key Stage 1 Science Fair was a huge success this week thanks to all the teachers, co-teachers, art department, Ms. Rony and Ms. Mireille for all their support of providing an opportunity for our students to explore a specific question in science and follow steps to test and collect data. Next week we will have the Key Stage 2 science fair. These events will be in school only.

Our current school plan regarding the health and hygiene of the school was sent out to parents. This is a dynamic and ever-changing situation so please stay tuned for further updates. We appreciate your patience and support of the health protocols we have in place.

Feb 26,2020

This week brings midterm exams. Please remember a good night’s sleep, proper breakfast will help students feel prepared. Students will then enjoy a nice 4-day break and come back rested for the completion of Term 2. WE look forward to seeing parents at parent conferences on March 3rd. Please keep a lookout for an email with further information. Again as always, an email with any questions or concerns about exams, holidays, parent meetings or any feedback you may have.

Feb 02,2020

Hello Windrose Academy parents and welcome to the month of February. This is a month which will be full of events and lots of learning. FS and KS1 will be working towards the 100th Day of School. KS2 is working towards their academic goals in all areas. KS3 and KS4 are focusing on learning and are planning for some trips as well. We are in the middle of flu season, so please be cautious about sending your child to school who is ill. Time at home will help a student heal and not spread any illnesses across the classroom.

Jan 26,2020

Another fantastic week of learning and exploring last week! This week we have several wonderful events with some final friendly football matches on Sunday. Key Stage 2 will have their talent show on Thursday. There will also be a fantastic Year 3 Math day on Tuesday. Lots of fun and learning taking place. Be sure to read your child’s key stage newsletter for more details on the week.

Please remember to see the Updated tardy policy sent. We also have some families who have not updated their health information. A date will be set for this and if your child does not have updated health forms we will hold them out of class until it’s filled out. This is very important in case of any emergencies.

Welcome back to school

Jan 19,2020

January is now in full swing and lots of learning is taking place all over the school. Each stage has begun new topics to begin term 2. KS2 students are preparing for the January 30 Talent Show from 2-3 pm. We invite parents of the performers only due to space limitations. FS had a wonderful pajama themed day last Thursday with students reading and taking part in many activities indoor and outdoor. We encourage parents to have their children to school by 8:00 am as the new lateness policy will now be in effect as of today Sunday, January 19, 2020. We also encourage parents to pick their children up promptly after school as there is no supervision after 3:20 pm. Windrose staff is involved in meetings and planning after this time.

Thank you for your support.

Dec 02,2019

Welcome to December and month filled with holiday spirit! All year groups are busy practicing for the winter show in their classrooms. Very soon we will begin reviewing for exams in some year groups.

Please be sure kids are in full winter uniforms by now. We look forward to a wonderful week of learning!

KS3 had a very competitive match against Noor Language School last week and defeated them with a score of 6-0. The middle school science competition took 1st place at the Your Child Expo last weekend. The November Numeracy Challenge has been dominating math sessions and will end today on November 24th. We are very excited to see the improvements in math using Matheltics to support mental math. Please remember to fill out and return health forms so we can assist your child in case of illness. There are a lot of wonderful extra-curricular activities going on at school – look for more announcements soon.

November Numeracy Challenge

The November Numeracy Challenge kicks off tomorrow with a strong focus on numeracy computation skills for all students registered on Mathletics. The November Numeracy Challenge will run from Monday 18th November until Sunday 24th November (1 week). We are challenging you to earn as many participation points as you can. The first placed school will be the school with the highest average total of participation points.

Students are beginning learning their parts for their Winter Concert and show.

Welcome to a short, but busy week here at school. We have Coding Club starting for KS2 and KS3. The sign ups will be out this week for the World Scholar’s Cup Competition, as well for KS2 and KS3. There are also talent show sign ups for KS2 and KS3 out as well. The KS1 talent show will be in the spring. Come and see the new playground painting which allows for some movement and balance practice for KS1 and FS2. The chalkboard wall is ready and kids have been doing some amazing artwork on it. Please remember the winter uniform policy, but it’s still warm in the afternoon so layers are the best. Healthy lunches are always the best to give students the extra energy to get through the school day focused and with their minds ready to learn! Have a wonderful week.

Welcome back

Nov 03,2019

Welcome back to school! The next 6 weeks will be busy as we head towards the midyear holidays. It’s an exciting time of year, but we will be working hard in all academic areas. This is the time where children can make a lot of progress in their studies as there are not many interruptions between now and the Winter Holidays. Please communicate with your child’s teacher regarding any questions or concerns as a first point of contact. As the weather cools and children wear layers, please be sure to label all your child’s belongings.

Checkpoint Best Achievers Celebrations!!

Everyone deserves a much earned midterm break and we wish you a restful holiday. We will see everyone back rested and ready to go in November.

The weather is getting cooler, schedules are now routine, the sun sets early and we have nice cool mornings. It’s one of the best times of the year. We will continue this week with full schedules including swimming, library, art, and music. These accompany our core classes to help develop a well-rounded child and give opportunities to explore and extend themselves to other types of activities. We are fortunate to have skilled teachers in all subjects at Windrose Academy to assist students in exploring and finding their passion!

Swimming Lessons
