Dear parents
I would like to raise a very important matter with all parents. It has been brought to my attention that during play times (twice 10 min breaks) during lessons some children wish to stay in class and some wish to go to the play ground. The teacher can only be in one place at once and therefore needs to monitor the children in the play ground.
I am sure you will all appreciate the fact that there are over 100 students at the school and each teacher has the responsibility for their own students but can not be at two places at once.
In light of this difficult situation our priority is the safety and happiness of the children; I have to request each parent to volunteer one week play ground duty so the teacher can remain in the class during break times with the children that do not wish to go outside to play. I am confident that you will support us in this as we aim to provide the best possible environment for your children.
The teachers will place a rota outside your child's class each parent would be requested to cover one week but if for some reason you can not commit a specific week then the teacher will have telephone numbers of all the parents in her class and you may contact the parent you wish to swap the day.
I hope you will agree this is the best possible solution to this situation and would like to thank you all for your understanding and support in this matter.
Sincerely Yours
Katja Ting
Principal
