SMITIS Newsletter: Volume 2, Edition 12 1

SMITIS Newsletter

9 August, 2013

Star Mountains Institute of Technology International SchoolOur purpose is to develop internationally-minded and life-long learners who help to create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect, and strive to be: inquirers; knowledgeable; thinkers; communicators; principled; open-minded; caring; risk-takers; balanced; and reflective.

The most important national day in PNG is Independence Day which will be celebrated as a public holiday on Monday, 16 September. SMITIS will be conducting its Independence Day celebrations on Friday, 13 September from 9.00am – 1.00pm.

Parents and wantoks are invited to join us on this day, as well as assisting our regional groups in preparation for this celebration. Our four regional groups are: • Momase (M), • Highlands (H), • Southern (S) and • New Guinea Islands (I).

Some parents have offered to assist their regional group by teaching dances or assisting with costumes. We will need more involvement to ensure the usual high standard is maintained, or exceeded.

There has been an outbreak of chicken pox at the school with several of our Kindergarten students affected. It can be spread either through person-to-person contact, or through sneezing and coughing. Those infected with the chicken pox virus don’t usually have symptoms until 2-3 weeks after contact.

In children, chicken pox usually starts with a general feeling of tiredness and lethargy, as well as a fever and swollen glands. This is soon followed by the outbreak of a rash over the next 3-5 days. There’s no cure or specific treatment for chicken pox.

If your child has chicken pox, it can help to keep their nails short – if they do scratch, the sores will be less likely to get infected. You could also put mittens on younger children.

Keep your child away from school until the last blister has scabbed over.

Don’t forget the P&W Trivia Night on 17 August at the Hash Club. This will be a great chance to win plenty of prizes that have been kindly donated. But, you need to be there to be a winner!

I appreciate your support.

Kindergarten NewsIn Kinder this term... Our unit of inquiry is based on our transdisciplinary theme : Our Identity is shaped by our family history.We began by studying about our family history. We asked questions at home about our family tribes and our family history. We used a family tree to portray our individual family stories, as well as in show and tell time.

We are also learning about our family values. The best value that we have discovered is love. We discovered that sharing responsibilities in our families is the best way of keeping the family together. When we help one another, we are loving. Helping our family at home is the way to learn and grow.

Literacy and NumeracyIn mathematics, we are learning to use groupings in adding two groups together, subtracting two groups of numbers using concrete materials and we are having fun. We group, add and subtract family members in our class. We have fun using concrete materials to help us to better understand adding and subtracting.

In our literacy program, we are working on punctuation marks, exclamation marks and full-stops. Making sentences are fun. They help us to read better. We are learning more and more each day on how to pronounce and say letter sounds and blending the sounds. Learning new words helps us read better.

Our home reading is important to us. We are also writing stories about our families and what we do together. We are also practising to write letters in the right form.

Science & The ArtsWe are also learning about classifying groups of animals. We are exploring what these animals groups are: birds, mammals, reptiles and insects. We will be looking around our school area to identify insects as part of our classification activity.

In dance and movement, we are beginning with musical statues. We try to dance according to the different rhythm of music, fast and slow, and how the music sounds make us feel. We will be getting involved in PNG singsing for the upcoming Independence Celebration in our school.

Art is integrated in all areas of our learning and to develop fine motor and gross motor skills we paint, write, paste and cut using scissors.

ICT, PSE & RoutineIn ICT, we are learning about the names of different parts of the computer. We are also learning to save our work and put it on file. We are using ‘kidspix’ to draw pictures. It is fun in IT.

General hygiene for us is very important. We are learning about keeping our body healthy and clean. Our teeth are important to us, so we brush our teeth each day. We comb our hair, wear clean clothes and always eat healthy food.We are also exploring the basic food groups.

Routines in school are very important in Kindergarten. We are on time for our classes and sitting quietly on our special mat for the next task. In the beginning of this term, we have a new teacher, Ms Ganisi, and we are getting used to our new teacher. It was a bit hard, but we are getting better now.


Are you good at maths?The following maths questions were part of the 2013 Year 3 Australian Mathematics Competition.

• I take 2 vitamin C tablets every day. If I increase my dose to 3 tablets a day, a full bottle would last 8 days less. How many tablets are in a full bottle?

• Starting at 100 and going through to 999, how many numbers have two or more digits the same?

• In how many ways can three different numbers have two or more digits the same?

• Adam, Barney and Joe carry 999 books out of the library. Adam works for 3 hours, Barney works for 4 hours and Joe works for 5 hours. They work at different speeds, with Adam carrying 5 books for every 3 books Barney carries and every 2 books Joe carries. How many books did Adam carry?

How did you fare with these above questions? Too easy?

Student PortfoliosStudent portfolios with samples of work for first semester were provided with semester reports.

Parents should remove these work samples and return the portfolio folders to their child’s class teacher so that second semester can start being prepared. Student portfolios can’t be provided to parents at the end of the year, if they are not returned to the class teacher.

PostcardsHave you seen the P&W postcards yet? They look sensational. These postcards are on sale at K3 each or K15 for the set of 7, and are available from the Main Office.

P & W MeetingA reminder that the next meeting of the Parents’ and Wantocks’ Association will be held on Tuesday, 20 August, in the school library, commencing at 1.00pm.

NUT FREE ZONE William (Y1) and Matthew Thomas (Y4) have a severe nut allergy. To prevent a medical emergency, there can be no nuts or foods containing nuts at SMITIS. This includes, especially Nutella and hazelnut products, and anything containing tree nuts.

SMITIS and the Thomas family appreciate your assistance in making our school a nut free zone.

CHICKEN POX

There appears to be an outbreak of chicken pox in Kindergarten. Chickenpox is a common disease in

childhood, but can also occur in adults. The illness is usually milder in children.

Causes

Chickenpox is caused by the Varicella zoster virus.

It can be spread either through person-to-person contact, or through sneezing and coughing. Children

can develop chickenpox after being in contact with someone who has shingles (but elderly people can’t

get shingles from chickenpox).

Symptoms

Those infected with the chickenpox virus don’t usually have symptoms until 2-3 weeks after contact. In

children, chickenpox usually starts with a general feeling of tiredness and lethargy, as well as a fever

and swollen glands. This is soon followed by the outbreak of a rash over the next 3-5 days.

At first, this rash appears as red spots, which develop into crops of small blisters over the chest, back,

tummy or face. These soon appear on the rest of the body, and might even occur in the mouth or ears,

or on the genitals or eyes. The blisters are extremely itchy, and new ones form as older ones scab over

and dry up. The scabs can take several weeks to fall off. The rash doesn’t leave any scars unless the

blisters or scabs are scratched, or if the sores become infected. Your child might get a fever along with

the rash. Chickenpox symptoms tend to be much milder in children than in adults. Any fever associated

with chickenpox is usually more marked in adults.

Chickenpox is contagious from a few days before the rash appears until all the existing sores or

blisters have formed scabs and are completely dry. This usually takes around a week.

Complications

In healthy children, complications of chickenpox are unlikely, although they do sometimes happen.

Complications include infection of skin sores, pneumonia and encephalitis. Children who have low


immunity – for example, children with cancer or who are taking immunosuppressant medication (such

as high-dose steroids) – can suffer severe attacks of chickenpox. These children need to be kept away

from people with chickenpox or those who might be incubating it.

Treatment

There’s no cure or specific treatment for chickenpox. Treatment is geared towards relieving the

symptoms.

Gauze pads soaked in bicarbonate of soda and water that are then placed over the sores can calm the

itch for a while. Creams, such as calamine lotion, might also reduce the itchiness.

If your child really can’t stand the itching, your doctor might prescribe an antihistamine medicine or

tablets.

Give paracetamol according to directions to help lower fever (but don’t give your child aspirin because

of its association with Reye’s Syndrome, a rare but serious illness). In very severe cases, an anti-viral

medication called aciclovir might be recommended.

If your child has chickenpox, it can help to keep their nails short – if they do scratch, the sores will be

less likely to get infected. You could also put mittens on younger children.

Keep your child away from school until the last blister has scabbed over.

I appreciate your support.

IB

The International Baccalaureate

The International Baccalaureate (IB) is an exciting set of educational programs offered in

more than two thousand school schools in over 120 countries around the world.

The programs focus on student-centred inquiry-based learning and global concerns. They challenge students to think in sophisticated ways

about the connections between ideas in different areas of study. They put learning into an international context.

IB @ SMITISIn 2011, Tabubil International School (TIS) hosted a Preliminary Visit by IB as an Interested PYP School. At the time, TIS decided not to pursue

Candidacy status.

As TIS transformed into SMITIS from 1/1/13, an application for PYP Candidacy status has been approved by IB.

At the same time, SMITIS has gained status as an Interested MYP School from 1/1/13 as Year 7 commences their first year of secondary education.
