Dear Fieldstone Community,
Thank you for your messages of appreciation for the Winter Showcase. We are extremely proud of our students and grateful to our teachers and parents for the incredible support they provide for our students to shine the way they do. A special thanks to Mme. Lechallier and Mr. Morales for leading the creative performances of Fieldstone students. Bravo, Fieldstone!
The last week of school before the Winter Break was a busy one for Fieldstone staff and students. We wrapped up the week, the month, and the year with a wonderful Holiday Market organised by the Fieldstone Parents Association, Holiday-themed House Games, Pajama Day, a holiday movie and class parties! Fieldstone spirit was as amazing as ever.
FKCS students have been busy reviewing their courses and adding the finishing touches to their Course Culminating Tasks for the end-of-semester examinations in January 2025. Our teachers will make sure students are fully prepared for their examinations. This includes participating in practice papers when they return from the Winter Break. Please review the schedule given below to make sure your child is aware of important dates. A gentle reminder that it is vital that students do not miss the days leading up to the examinations.
We are very excited to provide an update regarding our sports & athletics programme. Our Elementary girls’ volleyball team will be competing in the SSAF (Small School Athletics Federation)’s Volleyball tournament this year! We hope to see Fieldstone seniors also participating in many sporting competitions with other schools in 2025.
We are also planning a full-day field trip to Snow Valley Ski Resort towards the end of February! More details will be shared with parents in early January.
In closing, and on behalf of the staff, we’d like to wish everyone in the Fieldstone community a healthy, happy and safe Winter Break.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and your loved ones! We look forward to seeing everyone on campus again in the New Year on Monday, January 6, 2025!
Until next year, stay safe, stay warm, and have a wonderful Winter Break!
Sincerely,
Shumaila Khan
Head of School
