Newsletter 1 – 2022
Dear Parents,
And so we begin a new year and a new term with hope and optimism after the challenging year of 2021 during which we were grateful for your continued support of your children and of The Little School. It did not go unnoticed, nor unappreciated.
Although 2021 was indeed a challenging year, it had its highlights.
Despite the difficulties of COVID and civil unrest, The Little School Staff, parents and children rallied and managed to continue uninterrupted teaching and learning online and still keep a positive, enthusiastic outlook.
95% of our staff were fully vaccinated and some of our children. Vaccination of children over 12 years of age is ongoing and may I encourage you to do so.
CNN Call to Earth Project
The Little School Primary participated in the global Call To Earth Day which is dedicated to environmentalism, conservation and sustainability. It celebrates today’s Champions of Change and inspires Environmentalists of tomorrow. We were glad to showcase products and projects done by our children in Practical Arts.

Projects in the pipeline for 2022 to 2025
We have a few building projects we would like to embark on in the next two years.
Smaller projects are to increase the parking and waiting areas and to upgrade the computer lab.
Larger projects are to build a new staff room for the teachers as their staffroom was appropriated to create our library.
We also wish to build a spacious practical arts studio where all equipment and materials can be kept and projects worked on with plenty of space and light.
And our longer-term project is to build a swimming pool. We have been in discussion with swimming pool experts on location, type of pool and cost. Exciting project!
Welcome back everyone and looking forward to good times ahead.
