Dear
Parents,
Welcome back. The summer is nearly over and
an exciting new academic year is about to start.
As your children are enjoying the last few days of
the summer break, it is important to start preparing them for the new academic
year. Here are some helpful tips:
Start moving to a normal school bedtime routine
Make sure your children are prepared by ensuring
they have everything they need. Often having a few new items, even some
new stationery, adds to the excitement of the new academic year.
Talk positively about the new academic year.
Our major theme is ‘Challenge’. Ask your children how they are going to
challenge themselves. What different subjects/activities are they looking
forward to?
Read - Get students back into a routine of
reading. This is one of the best ways to help awaken their minds ready
for school. Ask them questions about what they have read.
Here are some additional reminders and links which
should be helpful.
- The start
date for the academic year is the 29th August for all new students.
This includes all of Year 7 as they are new to High School. Details will
be sent separately for EY1.
- The
School Uniform shop is open. Please make sure you follow the uniform
guide. I have put additional guidance on the next page also. Access
to more information including online ordering can be found at https://www.eischools.ae/jumeirah/uniforms
- Please
ensure they have a suitable refillable water bottle.
- The
academic calendar can be found at https://www.eischools.ae/jumeirah/academic-calendar
- If you are looking to organise school transport, please contact

I look forward to seeing you all!
Kind regards,
Uniform- Additional Guidance
We are
going to be more vigilant with uniforms next academic year. Please ensure
your child has the correct uniform from our uniform shop.
Shoes are a constant issue. The school will be insisting on black shoes for the formal school uniform. These shoes should be completely black. In Primary and up to Year 11, black trainers are allowed but not with alternative coloured stripes etc. Shoes must not have LED lights, these are a challenge to some individuals.
For Example :
