SCHOOL BULLETIN Edition 30: 2022/2023 From Mr Martin, Dear parents, staff and students, I hope everyone is healthy and hale as we experience a period of unusually hot weather. We will continue to take the necessary precautions to ensure students are comfortable and happy and very much hope we see a relaxation of the current restrictions as the heat dies down. I wish the very best of luck to our secondary students currently sitting IGCSE and A-Level exams! I am sure the huge amount of work you have put in will result in you getting the grades you surely deserve. Our Iftar event and Hari Raya celebrations were wonderful events as always and I would like to thank everyone involved in the planning, organisation and running of both, and of course everyone who came along to take part; it is always such a pleasure to see our school community coming together for such important and meaningful celebrations. The end of the academic year is fast approaching, and I hope everyone gets plenty of rest and relaxation over the half-term break, ready for the final half term - which promises to be a very busy and eventful one. With the current heat-restrictions it is unlikely we will be able to run any trips or external activities after the break, we can only hope that the situation improves, and the restrictions are removed. We are very, very excited to have been accepted into the AIMS (Association of International Malaysian Schools) Sports programme and welcome the challenge of competing with our counterparts in a range of sporting and athletic competitions. We have been waiting a long time to gain entry and are so thrilled to add this aspect to the school life of our students; the friendly competitiveness, the exposure to other schools and other students is a wonderful part of the holistic school experience we value so much at Tenby SEH. Best wishes and stay safe.


From Mrs Madeleine, Dear Tenby Family, Well, we have done it, another half term under our belts and a hot one at that! The children have been wonderful as usual despite having to cancel sports days and trips due to the heatwave. They show resilience and bounce straight back. We have had some excellent class assemblies recently, the children have showcased their Amazing Learning to those of us lucky enough to be able to share. I am sure you would prefer to look at the lovely photos, so without further ado I will leave you to share some of the best moments of the past month in the Primary section. We are always getting better! Dear Parents, Guardians, Students and Staff, A very warm hello and greetings to all parents and guardians from the Secondary school. The year continues to fly by with Term 3 off to a fantastic start. The IGCSE and A Level exams have been in swing for a couple weeks and the feedback from students has been very positive. Thanks to their continued hard work and the dedication from teachers, we are projecting another year of improvement and progress with the IGCSE results. The last couple of weeks have been abuzz here on campus, with numerous activities ongoing outside of the classroom. The English Department celebrated Book Week with several challenges and activities around school, including a character dress up and video making competition. In addition, the Student Council celebrated Teachers Day by kindly distributing gifts and running a number of fun events. As well, the Eco Committee celebrated a very successful year during the school assembly by highlighting a number of initiatives including a recycling programme, a food waste reduction programme and the expansion of the Eco Garden. This year the students have been doing a wonderful job tending to the Eco Garden and we are also very grateful to the parents who have also dedicated so much time, effort, and knowledge to the garden. On a more academic note, the Year 10 students will be completing their end of year assessments after the midterm break and I would stress that they wisely spend time revising over the holiday. These assessments will help highlight next steps for students to take with their studies, which can make the difference between a B or an A on the IGCSE exams in Year 11 and the ability to secure a scholarship. In addition, the deadline for the IGCSE scholarships is June 9th and I encourage all interested Year 9 students to complete the application. To all parents and guardians, thank you for your continued support and commitment to the Secondary school. Do take care and I hope you enjoy this version of the newsletter. From Mr Jeffrey,


Respect is not simply a fleeting gesture or a hollow word. It is a profound attitude that should permeate every aspect of our interactions; from our personal friendships to our career ambitions and goals. When we respect others, we acknowledge their inherent worth and treat them with dignity. We recognise their unique perspectives, experiences, differences, and feelings, and we strive to understand them better. In a world that is becoming increasingly diverse and interconnected, respect is the bridge that enables us to accept differences and find common ground. It cultivates empathy, allowing us to see beyond our own biases. Respect opens the door to meaningful dialogue, encouraging us to listen to one another with an open mind and a heart. Furthermore, respect paves the way for collaboration and cooperation. When we approach others with respect, we create an environment where everyone feels valued and included. Through respectful collaboration, we can tackle challenges, innovate, and make progress together. Respect also extends beyond our human relationships. It encompasses our treatment of the environment, animals, and all living beings. By respecting nature and its delicate balance, we can ensure the preservation of our planet for future generations. The Eco Garden is a learning space that we hold dear to our hearts at Tenby SEH, and is a guiding example of how respect is at the core of our school Vision and community. Dear Tenby Family, We want to take a moment to discuss a topic that we hold dear to our hearts and community - respect. In our fast-paced and often chaotic world, it is easy to overlook the significance of respect in our daily lives. However, we firmly believe that respect is the bedrock upon which we can build strong relationships, nurture understanding, and create a harmonious society.


EARLY YEARS


In phonics, the reception children have shown a good struggle consolidating some of the tricky words they have learned- ‘no’, ‘go’, ‘I’, ‘the’, ‘to’, and ‘into’. We began our lesson by listening to the tricky words song and from the song the children had to name some of the tricky words they remembered and write as many as they could on their mini whiteboard. To consolidate their learning, they were able to complete their tricky words workbook and enjoy the session. What Amazing Learning, well done RT!


In PBL, the children continued with the topic ‘Animal Safari’. They learned about different types of animals and identified some animals based on their characteristics; omnivore, carnivore and herbivore. They also listened to a story called ’The Koala who Could’ and shared their experiences about being brave at school or at home. They also created a wonderful Koala bear craft. Amazing learning children!


In PBL, we introduced the topic of ‘Animal Safari’, and it was a roaring success! This topic is mainly about the animals that live around the world, how to look after them, and the importance of caring for our local and global environments. We began our lesson by looking at the flashcards about unusual animals around the world and listening to the story of ‘Hello, Hello’ by Brendan Wenzel. We learned about endangered animal species and discussed how to protect them. We have joyful moments working together by making ‘Save the Animal’ posters with our peers. We painted the Earth, coloured the animals, and pasted them on the poster. What a fun unit!

In Term 3 maths, Year 1 students have been learning about equal groups. As a part of their hardwiring activity, the students were using counters, macaroni, linking cube and blocks, creating equal groups based on the flashcards. They were showing initiative in their learning as they learned to use the concept of sharing among groups to get an equal amount for each group. They had a great time understanding and applying the concept of sharing after the activity. Well done and keep up the amazing learning, Year 1!


Last week in PBL, Year 4 children constructed a model of an AngloSaxon village. After learning about the household characteristics of an Anglo-Saxon village, the children were tasked with designing the village. They also thought about the materials that could be used to construct it, such as using cardboards or mounting boards for the base, ice-cream sticks for the houses and play dough for the animal figures. They displayed creativity, communication and cooperation while working together to construct the model. Amazing Learning, Year 4!


Children in Year 5 were introduced to angles and triangles and how to calculate missing angles. They learned about the different types of angles and ended up creating a poster consolidating their knowledge on the subject.


Children in Year 5 made piñatas for their unit: Hola Mexico! Piñatas are used in celebrations of positivity and growth, they are usually used during birthdays and festive celebrations. Tjhe children displayed communication and cooperation while building their piñatas together. They also used their creativity in decorating their piñatas.


This term, Year 3 learnt their first Ukulele lesson. After a few lessons, they were getting better at understanding and explaining how ukeleles work and how they are tuned. Students learn to play the ukulele in a group setting, in the music ensemble lesson. Through ensemble lessons, students develop a passion for music as well as creativity and co-operation by learning a musical instrument with their buddies. Students get feedback during lesson time so as to set their goals. They are also given an effort grade to reflect their learning attitude and their participation during the lesson at the end of term. When adequate effort is put in, learning is ensured.


The Primary Student Council Body organized Teacher Appreciation Week. Teacher Appreciation Week serves as a reminder to help support, validate, and encourage our teachers to continue doing what they do best. Spreading the love, Student Councillors hosted a ‘delivery’ campaign to show appreciation to their teachers. They sold roses, stationery sets, pen drives, key chains, brownies, and scented candles.With the funds raised, they purchased stainless steel cutlery to be gifted to all the Primary and Specialist teachers. The children were so thoughtful and took this opportunity to thank their teachers for all their dedication. Well done, Primary Student Council Body!


Student of the Month: Lee Jea (2N) What do EAL and ESL stand for? EAL: English as an Additional Language EAL: English as Second Language Essentially experts in language learning thought that since many language learners can already speak a second language, third language, fourth language and so on, assuming English would be their second language is inaccurate and this term needed to be replaced. So in ESL's place, people began using EAL and ESOL. Need to wind down for a few minutes? Feel like a quick puzzle?

Try this quiz and find out. http://www.teachingenglish.org.uk/whatkind- teacher-are-you?page=2 ABOUT EAL IN TISSEH We take time getting to know our students and their specific (academic) needs. This is a lengthy process and one that we take very seriously. It involves an initial placement test, an informal one-to-one interview with the student, as well as one or many classroom observations. We provide in-class support. We work closely with the class teachers to make the lessons accessible to EAL students by providing small-group support, and intensive classes to supports EAL learners. We celebrate being EAL! We came up with the lovely idea of dedicating a day to EAL awareness so that we shift the focus from ‘struggling with English’ to being ‘able to speak more than one language’. Why is courage important in students’ life? Courage helps students to navigate social and emotional challenges. Thus, in TISSEH the practice of courage could help students better adapt to difficult situations and attain their personal and academic goals.

Archery is a sport for body and mind. To shoot an arrow not only requires physical strength, but it also requires focus and concentration. In archery, students will learn how to develop their strength physically and mentally. After 10 weeks, our archers are capable of shooting up to 20 metres distance with awesome results. Anyone can shoot at 20 metres but to get bullseye consistently is another matter. These archers prove to us that they are not just anyone. They are one of the best.


Mental illness Eating disorders Low academic performance Cheating at school Low self-esteem Problems with sleep Injuries, if an athlete Safeguarding- Parental Pressure As a parent, you always want your children to succeed in any area of life. You want what’s best for them; you dream of them getting into the best colleges and universities, mastering every subject, and being at the top of the class. However, these expectations sometimes go beyond your child’s capabilities. Your expectations become hard to meet, resulting in more pressure from your side and transforming into anxiety for your child What Is Parental Pressure and Why? Parental pressure is the emotional stress parents tend to put on their children and is often related to academic success, cultural and social standards, and other factors. The leading cause of parental pressure comes out of concern for the welfare of their children and their employment. Another factor is the parent’s past goals they couldn’t achieve; therefore, they try to employ the same dream in their children, leading to confusion for the kid. The outcome of these actions is, more often than not, unhealthy on a large scale. What Can Be the Effects of Parental Stress on Students? Although the pressure is mainly based on good intentions, sometimes parents can go beyond what’s acceptable for students. As a student, your child will constantly look for your validation. Even a slightly disappointed expression can send them into a bad mental state; they will start questioning their capabilities, slowly leading to fear, anxiety, and other mental illnesses. Now imagine what too much pressure can make them go through. More specifically, the effects of parental stress on students mainly include: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Although well-intentioned, parental pressure is frequently misinterpreted as love and can negatively affect kids. As a parent, fostering an environment where your child can grow and succeed is crucial. You should identify your child’s abilities and advise them on how to develop their talents. Some of the steps you can take to avoid pressuring your kid while creating healthy goals for them are as follows: Introspect After an interaction with your child regarding their academic performance, take a minute to reflect on your behavior. Have you been fair to them? Were your sayings reasonable? If they disagreed with you, how did you react? And is there a way you can find something that would motivate them instead of making them feel less than they are? Encourage Imagine how happy your child would be if they heard something encouraging after a bad exam or class, instead of feeling guilty for not studying harder. This will push them to do better next time. Your words of encouragement can be a stepping stone for their success. Interact At any given opportunity, create healthy interactions with your children. Make them feel worthy of academic achievements. Students accumulate a lot of stress just by being students. You can help them by giving them love and motivation
