UDIS Year 5/6

Last Day of 2019/2020 School Year We have completed the last week of the 2019/2020 school year. This school year has presented many unforeseen challenges surrounding COVID-19 and has allowed each and everyone of us to adapt and grow in order to continue to provide the learners with a quality learning experience.  I have seen each and every learner grow in a positive way throughout the school year and make great advances in their knowledge and academic skills. It is an exciting time for all of the children to be able to move onto the next stage of their IB learning experience as they enter the MYP Programme. I look forward to still being able to teach them for English and Individuals and Society for the next academic year and to be able to continue to watch them grow.  I would like to wish you all a very happy and blessed school holiday and look forward to welcoming you all back in August!
