In class yesterday we had a discussion, following information shared with us by some parents.
With relation to personal property, such as toys and special items, we discussed that not everyone might have the same access to such luxury items and that this can lead to jealousy. The children voted and a majority vote of 23 out of 31 voted in favour of NOT bringing in toys and precious items from home.
We also reinforced the importance of them taking care of their belongings, particularly in preparation for the independence expected and required by their new schools and this I discussed with many of you during the consultation evenings as well as during the parent information sessions.
Thank you, in advance, for supporting us in reinforcing these discussions at home. Please communicate with us if you have any other areas for discussion.
