HFS Newsletter – Term 1 – Week 15

Posted in - Latest News

The last week of term has arrived and lots of great things are going on at HFS. The kids are busy getting ready for the Winter Show and finishing off their units of study for the term. Everyone is looking forward to some Christmas fun a well earned holiday.

Winter Show

The Winter Show will be on Friday 17th December at 2 pm.

Due to COVID-19 regulations and the need for social distancing we would like to ask each family to only bring a maximum of two members of immediate family to the show. It would also be very helpful for us to know how many people will be coming to watch the show and if your child needs the bus after the show.

Please help us by using this form to let us know who is coming and about the bus.

If you have any questions regarding arrangements for the Winter Show please contact the Admin Office.

Please help the show run smoothly by remembering:

  • The show will start at 2pm so please arrive at school in good time and be in your seat at 2pm
  • Temperature checks will be carried out so please stay away if you have a fever
  • If you must bring a small child or baby, please sit at the back where it is easy to pop out quickly if you need to
  • We will be filming the performances
  • Parking is very limited in front of the Hanmaeum Centre but parents can park free of charge in parking tower located next to the Hanmaeum Centre
  • Clap, cheer, smile and sing along!

It should be a great show and the kids are really looking forward to performing.

No Clubs Next Week

Please remember that there are no clubs in Week 16 (next week).

The bus schedule for next week is as follows.

Students on the second bus will wait at school with their teachers until the bus departs.

Mid-Year Progress Reports and Parent-Teacher Meetings

Mid-Year Progress Reports will be published and Parents-Teachers Meetings will be held in Week 3 of Term 2. From this year the school publishes two sets of written progress reports each year, instead of termly. Class teachers are always happy to meet parents, just call and make an appointment if you would like a meeting before next term.

Covid-19 Regulations

Please remember that the new Covid-19 regulations require 10 days quarantine for anyone returning from abroad, regardless of vaccination status. Also, if a family member is quarantined in the same location as a student attending school, that student should not attend school during the period of the quarantine.

If you have any questions or need any advice regarding Covid-19 regulations the School Admin Office is always ready to help.

Gifts

With Christmas and the end of term coming up, please remember HFS staff are not permitted to receive any gifts from parents due to the Korean Prohibition of Improper Solicitation and Graft Act and the school’s Anti-Graft Policy.

Thank you for the thought but this is the law.

Fire Drill

There will be a fire drill at school on Wednesday next week.
