Welcome to Alveare 2017!

Welcome back to school everyone! 
A big welcome to all the new families in Alveare and a special warm welcome to those of you new to BEPS!

We have had a wonderful start to the year connecting with each other and discovering we have an inspiring community of scientists, artists and inquisitive minds.

Here are some beautiful photos of our first few days, painting, building boats and getting to know each other.







Alveare Learning Community this year:

The 3 main teachers in Alveare this year are Jennaya, Chloe and Sapphira.
The students will have PE with Shona this year and will continue to have Art with Vanessa, Music with Sarah and Italian with Mary.
We also have Mel supporting our writing program this year for a few hours each week.


Two important notes for this week:
  1. The yellow administration forms will go home this week for you all to sign and send back to school. These are the forms we use for the year for local excursions and other permissions. They are also the main way we collect everyone’s email addresses. Please send it back as soon as possible.
  2. Thursday evening is a parent information evening. This is an excellent opportunity to meet with the teachers and leadership this Thursday from 5pm. An information session will be held in Bicicletta (just off the Agora) and the classrooms will be open. General information and expectations for the year will be discussed as well as ways you can support the Learning Community’s programs - especially our reading program.


We need some help covering our beautiful new workbooks.
It would be great if everyone could volunteer a little bit of time to do this whenever you are free - we will have it handy for you!

We hope to see you around in the coming weeks and continue to get to know you all (reminders of names are very appreciated)   :)

Cheers,

Jennaya, Chloe and Sapphira
