Hello everyone, 

We’d like to start off by saying a huge well-done to all the KS5 students for getting through exam week last week. It was impressive to see how well everyone handled each exam and how good everyone was at following rules and procedures inside the exam hall. We urge you to rest, re-charge and spend time with your loved ones over our Tihar break. Once again, well-done!

This week:

Over the past week, there have been discussions between members of staff, students, and parents about the school dress code and PE uniforms/ TBS shirts.  

Of course we cannot forget the Halloween dress up day we had on Monday! It was absolutely lovely to see all the spooky, creative costumes around the campus. We also had students and staff come in pink items today in solidarity for Breast Cancer Awareness month in October. A massive thank you to everyone who has contributed to the donations – they will be 100% directed to breast cancer organisations and research after the Tihar break. 

The Prefect Team has also been hard at work on planning our personal projects and starting to put plans into action. We’ve got several exciting things in store for everyone over the next few terms!

Movember:

Some of our staff and KS5 students will be taking part in an important cause this month – ‘Movember’. Movember (or No Shave November) is a concept that entails men and boys refraining from shaving their facial hair over the month of November. Then, the money that has been saved from not buying shaving products is donated to prostate cancer research centres. We’re looking to donate to local cancer research centres with the money that is raised this year. It is really lovely to see people participating!

We hope that you all have had a wonderful few days, and we look forward to seeing you back at school next week. Happy Tihar!

It has been a busy few days for us Primary House Captains!

On Friday, we helped with the Primary Zombie competition, which was so much fun to host, and we were happy to give 10 house points each to the sixteen lucky zombies.

We also held a competition during our Halloween dress up day, to see which classes had the most creative Halloween costumes. It was enjoyable to see all the spooky costumes, they were all very imaginative. We were especially impressed with F1 & 2, 4B, 5S and 6E!

We hope you all had fun and a spooky Halloween!

You can see some of the pictures below of the amazing costumes and even the teachers dressed up! Can you guess who is in the mad scientist costume?

Have a good holiday and happy Tihar!

In Spanish, our students celebrated Dia de los Muertos, a Mexican festival with links to Halloween through Allhallowtide. They made an altar of ofrendas (offerings) to welcome the people they admire when they return from their journey through the afterlife, learning about the different objects on the altar and what they represent in Mexican culture.

Today is our student leadership team’s planned Breast Cancer Awareness Day. Given the significant impact that breast cancer has for people and families all around the world, our student leaders used this as an opportunity to discuss the importance of breast cancer awareness. They also raised funds that will be donated to breast cancer research and will be used to support organisations specialising in breast cancer research and awareness.

Thursday 11th of November is Remembrance Day. This day is a memorial for all those who have lost their lives in wars and other conflicts. Although traditionally acknowledged by the Commonwealth states, this day now acknowledges all individuals, regardless of nation, who have lost their lives defending our rights and freedom. To pay our respects to this important day, and to continue creating awareness in our younger generations of the sacrifices made by those before them, we will be hosting an online whole-school Remembrance Day assembly. With speakers and presentations from all sections of the school, including staff  and students, we will come together as a community to remember those we have lost and appreciate the rights and freedoms that they fought so bravely to protect. We hope this is a highly valuable day of reflection for our community.

Thank you to the parents who have already confirmed that this will be the last term for their child/children at TBS. In line with the school policy, the date for the official notice of withdrawal is Wednesday, 17th November if this will be the last term for your child/children at TBS. Please inform Ms. Bajracharya (mbajracharya@tbs.edu.np) the Admissions Manager, if you wish to withdraw your child from TBS by the above date. Failure to give such notice will result in the security deposit being retained in full. Parents will receive a Clearance Form to complete the withdrawal procedure nearer the end of this term. The security deposit will be refunded once the form is submitted and all the school resources have been returned to the school in good order. Parents will always be notified in the instance where a partial amount of the deposit has been frozen to cover missing or damaged resources. We thank you for entrusting us with the education of your child/children and wish you the very best for the future; you will always be part of the TBS family, so please do keep in touch. This could be through the school social media or getting involved in the Alumni Association, details of which are in the clearance form.
