PYP Evaluation

Next week is our school evaluation visit. Two members of the IBO team will spend two days at Abacus looking at our paperwork and visiting classes. They would also like to speak to a few parents from 3.30pm-4pm on Thursday 25th May. If you would be willing to talk to them please let me know. They will basically want to know how well informed you are about the IB program and your view of the curriculum at Abacus.

Science and Drama Day

The children had an exciting day last week on our science and drama day. The teachers performed their own version of Room on the Broom and children had the opportunity to rotate round a range of science activities in K1 and drama activities in K2.
