Dear Parents,

To ensure the safety of our students, please kindly take note of the updated guidelines below for early pick-up.

Students may only leave the school premises with parental authorization (either by phone call or by email detailing the reasons for early dismissal), or with permission from the school nurse. No student is allowed to leave the campus without informing their class teacher.
 
For planned early pick-ups, parents must notify both the school office and the class teacher at least 24 hours in advance, specifying the pick-up time. For unplanned early pick-ups, please call the school office as soon as possible. This advance notice helps us prepare your child and minimize classroom disruption.

All students being collected early must be signed out by a parent or authorized caregiver at the school office. The office staff will have notified the security guard to grant you access to the school premises
 
If a student is unwell and needs to go home, our school nurse will reach out to the parents directly. Communication regarding illness should not be initiated by the student.

Our school office can be reached at 3765 8700 or office@kjs.edu.hk.

Kind regards,
KJS Office

Dear KJS families,

The Hong Kong Observatory (HKO)  has indicated a possibility of raising the T8 signal between 4pm and 7pm this evening. We want to assure you that as it stands, this will have no impact on our regular learning schedule or end-of-day procedures. Students will attend classes and be dismissed at the usual time.

One aspect we are currently considering is the status of our after-school Extra-Curricular Activities (ECAs). We will be closely monitoring the situation and will make a decision regarding ECAs by lunchtime. You can expect to receive a notification about this decision no later than 1pm today. However, if the HKO provides a more specific timeframe for the potential T8 signal, we may communicate our decision earlier.

We appreciate your understanding and flexibility as we navigate this weather situation. Rest assured that the safety of our students is our top priority, and we will keep you informed of any changes or updates as soon as they become available.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Kind Regards,
Gavin MacGregor
Principal
