As part of our fundraising efforts we will be selling Hot Dogs every Friday during term 4.
Hot Dogs can be ordered for the entire term or you can choose which weeks you would like to order. ALL orders will be placed in advance – the link will close on Tuesday, 09 October.
Hot Dogs will be made fresh on the school campus every week and will cost R18.00 each. The Smoked Chicken Vienna’s will be sourced from Woolworths; rolls and condiments from Spar.
Hot Dogs will be served wrapped in a serviette and students will add their own All Gold Tomato Sauce.
Thank you for your support!

Both this years musicals, Annie and Olivia, are available to purchase on DVD and Blu-ray.  The link to order will remain open until Friday, 28 September – don’t miss out!

The link to book Senior Primary Homework Club for September 2018 are open. The links will be staying open to allow for ad hoc bookings until Midday on the last day of the month. If parents would like to book their child/ren in for the afternoon then they will need to make sure they have done so by midday on the day in question to ensure their child in provided with snacks and that the staff member on duty is aware.

On Friday, 05 October 2018, all HBIS High School students, except for IGCSE 2 and DP 2 students who will be writing exams, will be participating in one of three Spring Walks.  Students will pick and sign up for one of the three options available. Each walk will have its own drop-off/collection areas and times.

1. The Spring Challenge
2. Chapman’s or Noordhoek Peak Hike
3. Cecelia Forrest Walk

HBIS PA are hosting a parent workshop run by Jonathan Mitchell and Mark De La Ray from the Glenbrook Practice – ‘Adolescent Behaviour – What is typical & what is not’.
This parent workshop will include an interactive presentation and Q&A session around identifying and dealing with the typical adolescent behaviours versus the problem behaviours.
It will look at adolescent–family conflict and the ways that families get polarized, don’t see eye to eye, and find themselves escalating or shutting down.

The PA is very excited to bring our student body a three weekend series of classes with instructors from Edro called Robocode 101.  These classes offer a practical and fun approach to coding.  In the classes, students will work with robots and tackle a unique curriculum of problems developed to build an interest and understanding of coding.  They will use the Parallax S2 robot, which is a sophisticated educational robot that is used in many US schools from primary through university.
This series of workshops will cover a full term’s extracurricular content

As part of our DP CAS project, some of the DP1’s would like you invite you to our Spring Fair, which will take place after the spring walk Friday, 05 October. We will be organising various international games for the children to celebrate our international diversity and to build teamwork, as well as further establishing that Spring feeling!

We are looking forward to a fun day with friends and family of HBIS and CANSA.
