The Hub will now be open on Saturday mornings from 10:00-12:00 for students, parents, and staff to check out and read books. Need a quiet space for homework or study? Want to snuggle with your little one and look at picture books? Come to the Hub from 10:00-12:00!
Library staff away from 12:00-3:00
All 4 library staffmembers will be at professional development from 12:00-3:00 on Thursday. Students and staff can still check out books during that time using the self-checkout system on the 1st floor.
Advisory Attendance
Given Advisory is an important part of our school day, we are now looking to take attendance during Advisory sessions, just like regular academic classes.
As a trial, on your Managebac, you will now see Advisory appear as a class in the Block 3 row. Attendance for Advisory can be taken like any other class using the attendance function on the class page.
Advisory will appear for all 5 days of the week due to the clash between our weekly advisory cycle and our 8-day class cycle. Please ignore Tuesday’s Advisory block on your timetable (there is no Advisory on Tuesdays)
The New Daily Bulletin.
This is a friendly reminder that we have switched to the new Daily Bulletin system. If you have any information to share via the Daily Bulletin, please ensure to use the new system found here http://dailybulletin.nischina.org.cn/wp-login.php.
You should be able to login via your Office 365 username and password.
I have attached the Tech Guide to this email. A few things to keep in mind
- Publish your posts 30 mins before 6:00 am.
- This is so the system has enough time to gather all the latest posts before sending out the email to all staff and students.
- Don’t forget to categorize your posts.
- Students
- Staff
If you have any questions, please let us know, we are here to support you. Please see instructions on how to post below.
