SCHOOL TOILETS

PARENTS DROPPING OFF ITEMS AT SCHOOL

Brackenhurst Primary School

Newsletter 16/2017

26 May 2017

Dear Parents

Quote for the Week:

APPEAL TO PARENTS:

This is, once again, an example of the disrespect some learners have for school property and

specifically the toilets. Wasting toilet paper!

We urge you as parents, PLEASE to stress to

your children the importance of respecting public property. Learners caught vandalising school

property will be severly dealt with.

IMPORTANT – PLEASE NOTE.

During the last few months we have relaxed the

ruling about items being delivered by parents for their child. However, as this is now being

abused and the front office staff receive more than 20 requests a day to deliver items to the

children, this will no longer be allowed.

As from MONDAY, 29 MAY 2017, only medication

such as asthma pumps will be delivered.

PLEASE DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DELIVER PROJECTS, LUNCHES, ETC., AS THESE WILL

NOT BE DELIVERED TO YOUR CHILD.

WAKE UP PARENTS

Years back, poor illiterate parents produced Doctors

Engineers

Scientists

Accountants

Lawyers

Architects

Professors – whom I will refer to as

Group A

These Group ‘A’ children struggled on their own

after Primary 6 or Grade 12, to become notable

personalities. Most of them:

Trekked to school barefooted Went to farms

Fetched water and firewood Cared for domesticated animals

Did some work including trading after

school to survive.

Now Group ‘A’, who have now become Parents themselves are producing Group ‘B’ children.

These Group B children are:

Pampered

Helped in their homework or home

assignments from nursery school through secondary schools to higher

institutions Chauffeur driven to very expensive

schools or are sent abroad to study

They can watch movies from morning till

dusk after school

They are treated like baby kings and

queens They don’t do any household chores

Food is put on the table for them

Their plates are removed and washed by

parents or house maids

They are given expensive cars and

clothes Not forgetting big pocket money to be

wasted!!

Their parents help them in doing their

assignments In spite of all these, only few can speak

or write correctly.

Group ‘A’ parents cared for their own parents and children. Group ‘B’, their children are still

struggling to find their feet at age 30+!!

They find it difficult to do things on their own

because they are used to being helped to think and doing things by Group ‘A’. So they can’t help

themselves, their parents or the society. THEY ABANDON THEIR PARENTS IN THEIR BID TO

ACQUIRE THE WORLD.

Where do you belong?

Reduce the pampering and the

unnecessary help you offer your children Let your children grow in wisdom,

intelligence and strength.

Let them face the truth and the realities of life. Teach them to grow to become

independent adults.

Teach them to

Fear God

Respect others and

Develop confidence in themselves

Parents, discipline your children to become disciplined adults, useful and

not useless. Article by Dr Alok Kar

And finally Grammar Jokes:

If you leave alphabet soup on the stove and go out, it could spell disaster.

If practice makes perfect, but no one is perfect

then why practice?

GENERAL

PARENT’S CORNER

If two wrongs don’t make a right, then why does

a double negative make a positive?

It’s good to be awesome, so why is it bad to be aw”ful”?

Regards

STUDY COURSE

Session 1 – Friday 12 May (14:00 – 17:00)

Session 2 - Saturday 13 May (9:00 – 12:00)

Session 3 - Saturday 13 May (14:00 – 17:00) The study course is for learners from grade 4 up, and teaches children how to study effectively. We work

on learning through association, how to remember what we have learnt, how to plan ahead, and give tips

on how to answer a question paper.

A brain profile questionnaire is completed by each learner before the commencement of the course. Each

learner’s brain profile is then taken into account during the course in order to suit their unique

preferences. The cost of the course is R1000.00, which includes the brain profile, a MindPower CD, all

study material and a few extras for each learner to assist them with their newly acquired skills. The

course consists of 3 3hour sessions, which all need to be attended. Parents are welcome to sit in on the

sessions, especially session 2 where we learn how to make summaries. (Please let me know if you are

planning to sit in.)

I will make an appointment with you and your child – at least a week before the course - in order to

complete the brain profile questionnaire. A deposit of R400 is required to confirm the study course

booking and the brain profile appointment. The balance of the course to be paid on the day the course

starts.

The learners learn very useful and practical techniques during the course and they walk out of the course

motivated and ready to study.

Die studiekursus word in Afrikaans ook aangebied!!
