New Extracurricular Activities, free demo sessions - Useful information

4 September 2020

Dear Parents

In a continuous effort to enrich our offer of extracurricular activities, we included in the annual planning for 2020-21:

  • A new coding activity by  Logiscool
  •  Emotional Intelligence, Impro Theatre and Debate Club by U-Thrive.

 

1) Logiscool organises free demo sessions for our pupils during the first week of extracurricular activities:

  1. For P3-P5: Tuesday, 8 September 2020, 15.30-17.00
  2. For S1-S3: Thursday, 10 September 2020, 16.30-18.00
  3. For P2: Friday, 11 September 2020, 12.15-13.45

The provider indicated that their instructors are bilingual in English and French. Depending on the participants, the main language of the activity will be either English or French, although the instructors will be able to help the participants in the other language as well, if needed. Logiscool’s coding platform is available in many languages, including German, Spanish, etc, and pupils may choose the language settings.

 

If you wish your child to attend one of those sessions, please register for the chosen activity via MyAPEEE. Please apply for the demo session in the same way in which you register for an activity. After the demo session, we will provide a feedback on the session’s course, to let you decide on whether to enrol on the course for the rest of the year.

2) U-Thrive provides activities in English.

Given this year’s exceptional circumstances, which did not allow us to organise open days or demo lessons in June 2020, our provider offered to organise free demo sessions for our pupils during the first two weeks of extracurricular activities: 

  1. Emotional Intelligence (17102) for P3-P5: Monday, 7 and 14 September 2020, 15.30-16.30
  2. Emotional Intelligence (27102) for S1-S3: Monday, 7 and 14 September 2020, 16.30-17.30
  3. Debate Club (27206) for P3-P5: Tuesday, 8 and 15 September 2020, 15.30
  4. Debate Club (17102) for Secondary: Tuesday, 8 and 15 September 2020, 16.30
  5. Impro Theater (27402 and 17404) for P3-P5 and Secondary: Thursday, 10 and 17 September 2020, 15.30-16.30.

 

The main language of these activities is English. Impro Theater is also suitable for pupils not yet fluent in English.

If you wish your child to attend one of those sessions, please register for the chosen activity via MyAPEEE, in the same way in which you register for an activity. After the demo session, we will provide a feedback on the session’s course, including with regard to the language skills requirements, to let you decide on whether to enrol on the course for the rest of the year.
