Preschool
For the month of March, the Preschool Department (PS) will have its Family Day on Saturday, March 4, 2017. With the title, CJPS Kids’ Choice Awards, the PS children will perform to popular songs as they honor their biggest support … their FAMILY. As you know, family is the single most important influence in a child's life. From their first moments of life, children depend on parents and family to protect them and provide for their needs. They are the child's first teachers and serves as role models as they experience the world around them. These are some of the reasons why Family Day is celebrated every year at CJPS. Please note that details about our Family Day will be communicated in a separate letter in the succeeding weeks.
Finally, March will also be dedicated to our Moving Up Day preparations. We know that this event is the affirmation of all of your child’s achievements and the validation of your dedication to providing your child with quality education. Because of this, we encourage you to block off your calendars for all the important dates in March.
Grade School
In last month’s Celebration of the Feast of the Sto. Nino and Inauguration of our new building, we witnessed the graceful presentation of the Sinulog Festival by our grade schoolers. Truly, we are thankful for your presence and support in this event.
As we draw closer to the end of the school year, February will be marked by an activity involving the entire family. With the title, “CJPS FAMBAM 2K17”, students from Grades 1 to 4 levels and their families will take part in Filipino Games with a twist. Designed not only to bring about timeless memories, the event also aims to develop among students sportsmanship and a deeper sense of appreciation for games that are part of our culture. Mechanics and details for this will be given on a separate letter.
Likewise, please be informed of the activities we set for the last month of our School year. We thank you for your continued cooperation and adherence to the school’s goals.
