The aim is to encourage active play and healthy lifestyle amongst students. On this half-day activity, kids just need to have fun and get the message that play is important! However, please be informed dear parents that this activity will be just for Grades 1 to 4 students only.
With your cooperation and support, Nickelodeon would also extend this celebration to the children of the fallen soldiers of Marawi.

They would happily accept all kinds of toys that encourage active and physical play, but with the exception of weapons and any form of pig or piglet shape and/or imagery.

Preschool
September is a busy month for the Preschoolers as we discuss “People in My Community.” We live with our families in different types of communities. For example, each community is different in setting, size and services provided. During this topic of study, children will learn more about the community in which they live with their family and explore these four big ideas about communities:
- I live in a community with my family.
- People living in communities learn to live, work and play together.
- In my community there are people who help keep me safe.
- In my community there are people who help keep me healthy.
In connection to this, we would like to invite you, dear parents as we celebrate “Mommy and Daddy Week” from September 11 to 20, 2017 Here, you can spend some of your precious time with your child by visiting the school to discuss your occupation and/or hobbies. For example, if you are a doctor or dentist, you can show the different tools you use in your work. You can also share your hobbies with us --- you can play an instrument or prepare your child’s favorite food. The objective of this celebration is to inform the children on the different occupations and hobbies their friends’ parents have. Kindly write your name on your preferred date and time on the space provided below. Your presence will surely make your child’s preschool life memorable.
Finally, September is also the month when we celebrate one of the most important and grandest events of the school year --- Grandparents’ Day 2017! Grandparents’ Day is not just a day to show gratitude for all the great things that our dear grandparents have done for us. It is also a day to revel in the fact that grandparents will always offer their love and bestow kindness upon their grandchildren. So, please save the date ….
