Hello everyone,
Wonderful to see that the Year 6 Film Festival is now a tradition!! The second instalment was held this week and the talent and artistry was phenomenal. Great stuff Year 6!
Here are some upcoming events:
Term 2 Casual Coffee: Tuesday, 29 October 2019, 8:30am, NPG Lounge. Please feel free to join us for a complimentary coffee/tea and a pastry to welcome in the new term. This will be a great chance for parents new and old to connect and catch-up. Hope to see you there. Please remember Monday we celebrate Deepavali and as such it is a public holiday, so Tuesday is the first school morning of the week.
MAJOR EVENT: Halloween Discos and Secondary Movie: 1 November 2019, 3:30pm
Be afraid! Be VERY afraid… because it’s time to get your ghoul on mums and dads, as the Nexus Halloween Disco is upon us! Join our wild and wacky afternoon of fun-filled activities that includes everything from best-dressed awards to a great dance party in the auditorium – with a very frightful secondary school learner acting as DJ. Please remember to keep costumes in the not-too-scary department so our little ones aren’t too spooked-out. Parent payback may backfire into nightmares! Looking forward to another hair-raising Halloween Disco! The two age-group discos (N-Y2 from 3:30pm until 4:30pm and Y3-Y6 from 5pm until 6:30pm).
Following the discos there will be a scary (kind of) movie for the middle-school learners (Y7-Y9 from 7pm-9pm). It is called Goose Bumps!
We are still in need for parent volunteers, particularly for food stalls and games. Please go to this link to volunteer some help on the day and help make the Halloween Disco a screaming success.
Please note that all N-Y2 learners must be collected from class and escorted to the Disco and an adult must remain with the young devil during the Disco.
NPG Yoga: For those interested, and this is a growing activity, please head to this link and sign-up. Tuesday and Thursday mornings:
Warmest wishes,
Simon Hyett
President, Nexus Parent Group
About the Nexus Parent Group:
One of our School’s unique pillars is what many parents and staff describe as a special community spirit.
The NPG serves two purposes within our community. Firstly, to provide parents with a platform through which to start conversations and provide feedback to the School – to be “a voice of the School community”. Secondly, to offer a range of great social, cultural and
special interest events. We welcome all volunteers to join our vibrant and diverse committee, with the main aim of maintaining an inclusive NPG where all ideas are considered valuable.
Our Facebook NPG group is a place for all our parents (and other members that are close friends of Nexus) to interact and create a closer community. Please feel free to post questions, reminders or any related comments but do refrain from lodging sales posts, we do have the second-hand buy-and-sell group for these posts or advertising your business.
Please email us at any time npg@nexus.edu.sg
