Message from Genét Erickson Adam, Acting Head of Junior School

Dear Parents and Carers,

We are all very excited to see next week’s performances of our JS Production, ‘Stuart Little’ in the Packer Theatre at the Senior School next Monday – Wednesday evenings. Invitations were sent home in student diaries this week with a link to purchase tickets. There are still some tickets available! We look forward to seeing many of our younger students in attendance, as we know it will be inspiring for them to see older JS students thrive in their performances.

Well done to everyone who attempted the Father’s Day Challenge last Friday during our Father’s Day Morning. It was great seeing students work closely with their fathers or other special visitors to solve these riddles. Please follow this link to view the answers. A collection of photos from the day can be found here.

Thank you to all students who took part in Jersey Day yesterday. Students were invited to wear a favourite sporting jersey or non-sporting shirt to school. Their donations have allowed us to make a contribution to support remote Indigenous communities.

We also thank the many JS families who joined us on Tuesday for a webinar about Cranbrook’s coeducational transition. It offered the opportunity to hear the ways in which we are preparing our young people for a coeducational environment in the coming years and the positive impact of empathy, understanding diverse perspectives and a commitment to inclusivity. Our young learners will shape the future, and we want them to be confident community participants who embrace change. Let us empower them to create a world that reflects the best of Cranbrook’s values and aspirations.

Kind regards,

Genét Erickson Adam
Acting Head of Junior School
