Dear Parents,

We had super first week back after a two week Spring Break!  Students came back well rested and eager to learn and explore new ideas.  I find it refreshing to see the passion and enthusiasm in our students each day.  Parents should be very proud.

After School Activities

The first week of activities was a real success.  Students are still visiting the office asking to sign up for various activities.  Parents can sign up for the activities at the following link…

Assembly Monday

Mr. Kearney’s class has been working very hard organizing the assembly with the theme, “Protecting Us From Germs.” There will be a parade following the assembly.  All parents are welcome!

We need about 6 parents to help run the activities.

Please message Brony on 010-2810-4420 or email pta@hyundaiforeignschool.com!

PTA Readers

We want to thank the PTA members who have volunteered to read to classes next week.  Parents will enter classes each day to read to the students.  Our students in year 7-9 will also be entering classes to read to their younger colleagues.

Best Wishes,

Peter McLeod

We look forward to another successful term.  I have an, “Open Door Policy,”  where parents are welcome to see me anytime if you have any questions or concerns.

Dear Parents,

Term 3 School Planner

Please use the link to read the school planner for the third term.  It looks like and exciting final term of the year!

Air Quality Index

You may be aware that the Korean Ministry of Education has recently changed the scale used to determine the air quality in Korea.  An average reading of PM 2.5 was 16-50 and 51-100 was considered bad.  Now, an average reading would be from 16-35 and a bad reading would be from 36-75. 

We will use the old scale.  You do have the option to have your child kept indoors for breaks under the new guidelines as we will have break indoors and outdoors.  If you want your child kept inside under the new guidelines, please see the link.  This survey should be completed by April 6th.

Thank You,

Peter McLeod
