Principal's Updates

March 24^th 2013

Dear Parents

I am very sorry to inform you that Mrs Lynne, who was one of our Year 3 Teachers until she left the School in May 2012, has sadly passed away after a very courageous fight against a serious form of cancer.

I received an email from Paul, her husband, on Friday informing me that she had died peacefully in her sleep with her family at her side. As Paul stated in his email: Lynne had put up an amazing fight, defying all the doctors' predictions. He then went on to say that I know Lynne would want me to pass on her thanks to you for all your support, not only during this last year but also throughout her time at Star. She loved teaching at Star and I know that she will take with her fantastic memories of her time with you.

Lynne was one of the original Team of Teachers who helped to open the School in 2008. Over her three years with us she made a huge contribution to making Star International School, Umm Sheif, so successful. We owe her a tremendous debt for her dedication and commitment.

Lynne was a very special Member of our School Community. She will be sadly missed by all those Children, Parents and Colleagues whose lives she touched.

The pain of loss will, of course, be most acutely borne by Lynne's husband, Paul, their children Matt and Claire, other Members of their Family and their circle of Friends. On behalf of the STAR Family I extend my condolences to all at this time of bereavement.

However, amidst this sadness we should not forget to celebrate and give thanks for Lynne and all she stood for during her lifetime.

Uniforms

Our Children are proud to wear the Star International School uniform. The school uniform must be worn at all times during the day and when representing the school for any occasion.

Foundation and Primary Stage uniform consists of the following:

Blue polo T-shirt
Khaki Cargo Shorts (for Boys)
Khaki Skort (for Girls)
Predominantly White Trainers
White socks
A Hat (the school hat is optional but a hat must be provided)
Winter Fleece Jacket (optional)
Navy Book Bag

Secondary students wear the following:

Navy Blue Trousers (for Boys)
Nave Blue Skirts/Trousers (for Girls)
White Shirt/Blouse
Smart Shoes (Black or Navy Preferable)
A Sun Hat (the school hat is optional)
Winter Fleece Jacket (optional) – Not to be worn in the classroom

P.E. Shorts (Boys)
P.E. Skirts (Girls)
P.E. T-Shirt

All the above items can be purchased from our authorised dealer, Zaks. Their shop can be found in the Beach Centre Mall on Jumeirah Beach Road.

Although the standard Foundation and Primary school uniform is either khaki shorts or skorts, trousers can be worn in the cooler months and can be made to order through Zaks. Cream or white tights may be worn with the skorts during the cooler months.

Foundation children are only required to bring their book bag and a lunch box/bag to school each day. School bags are not required and space to store them in the classroom is limited.

Primary children may bring their own school bag to school in addition to the book bag. However, we request that these are not trolley bags as they will not fit into the allocated space within the classroom.

For health and safety reasons we ask that all children refrain from wearing jewellery to school (sensible watches are permitted) and that closed trainers be worn at all times i.e. no sandals.

Proms in the Park

May 2^nd 2013 at 6pm

This will be an informal evening of fun and enjoyment listening to
our children singing. Although there will be limited refreshments available, we will once again be enjoying the festivities outside on the oval in the format of a family picnic. Remember your hampers and blankets!
It is important that parents take responsibility for their children
throughout the evening.
We hope that you will be able to support this event, as we are sure
that this will be yet another evening to remember!
