We want to raise our children with the love of Jesus, and start to acknowledge the real meaning of faith from early age.

Children enjoy the presence of different guests who bring the good news of the Gospel to the children with an interesting approach.

Educational field trips are fun, and allow students to enjoy some recreational time away from school and curriculum. During the year, the KG students will have the chance to go to both field and educational trips. These help them develop strong bonds with their classmates, and with teachers. Moreover, they’ll explore the nature and get acquainted with different playgrounds.

 

Communication

 

Open communication is vital to ensure your child’s successful experience. The following is a list of methods we will be using to foster dialogue:

· Agenda-Memos-Circulars

Many important messages, reminders, or forms that need to be completed and returned will be sent home during the school year.

Please check for memos on a daily basis and give them your prompt attention.

Do not leave any messages with the caregivers; convey your message to the teacher or the coordinator.

To meet with a teacher, contact the school during the school hours and take an appointment. It is strictly forbidden to contact teachers or send messages to them via Whatsapp, Viber, or Facebook.

 

· E-skool

 

Through your child’s e-skool IDs and passwords you’ll be able to see the circulars and the memos which are sent with your child.

You can download the application (e-skool) or you can access it through the School’s website. (www.aechs.com).

Kindly check the e-skool on a daily basis.

· Parent-Teacher Meetings

Regularly scheduled Parent-Teacher meetings make it possible for us to involve you directly in the monitoring process of your child’s progress. Kindly refer to the KG Events schedule for the dates of the important meetings.

Moreover, in case you have any questions/issues you wish to discuss, please do not hesitate to call for an appointment with the person in charge (KG Coordinator, your child’s class teacher).
