Dover Junior School contacts........................................................ 11 Junior School provides that all-important bridge between the
uninhibited curiosity of Infants and the confident striding out
of Middle and High School.
For the first time, our students are challenged by overseas
expeditions in the Outdoor Education element of our
programme and a staggering variety of Activities and Service
opportunities are offered. We encourage and cajole them
into a breadth of varied experiences, so that as they progress
in the school, they may discover that ‘grand passion’ that
they take with them into adulthood perhaps. It is a truly
exciting and crucial stage in their school careers and we aim,
in partnership with parents, to make it a successful one for
every individual.
The Junior School day runs from 8am to 3pm but formal
lessons end at 2.45pm to allow students time to prepare for
activities which begin at 3pm. Most after-school activities
finish at 4.20pm. Our students are given access to more
specialist subjects than in Infant School, including a greater
choice of languages, increased Physical Education and
specialist Art lessons for the first time. These changes are
important and help our students to approach Middle School,
which in turn amends the architecture of their day to prepare
them for the independence and self-regulated learning
required in High School.
We are very much looking forward to welcoming your family
to UWCSEA.
Kind regards,
Brian Ó Maoileoin

Updating your contact information
If there is any change in contact information (i.e., phone,
address or email), it is very important that parents amend the
details the school holds on file. This can be done by logging in
to the portal. We use the latest data recorded here for every
communication sent by individual departments.
eBrief
This weekly email consolidates key information into an easy-
to-read format for parents. Considered essential reading,
eBrief is sent to all parents every Friday during the school
term. It contains information for parents on the upcoming
two weeks. You can expect the first eBrief the Friday before
school commences—to help you get ready for the start of the
year. It is not sent during school holidays.
If you do not receive eBrief, please contact Junior School
office.

The UWCSEA App is available for iOS and Android devices via
the app stores. Search for UWCSEA and download the app
to access eBrief, the calendar, notices, a campus map, your
child(ren)’s timetable (including their activities for each day),
the staff directory and more.
You will need your login details to access the App, as the

from a class, we will let parents in the class know as soon as
possible. Please see the section on Food and other allergies on Emergency contacts
page 8 for more information on this very important policy. Part of the online medical form asks parents to nominate two
emergency contacts in Singapore. It is important that these
are kept up-to-date. These should be people you trust to
make medical decisions for your child should the unfortunate
need arise. We therefore request that you do not nominate
your domestic helper, because, sadly, their instructions might
not always be heeded.
Please also note that these contacts are not necessarily the
same as the nominated guardian which we require if both
parents are out of Singapore at the same time. This situation
requires separate notification to the school (see section on
page 3) for each and every absence.8

are generally scheduled to coincide with each unit of study to
extend students’ knowledge. Permission slips are sent home
prior to each off-campus excursion. Parents are asked to
contribute to the cost of entry tickets where appropriate.
PE programme
Students are expected to participate fully in the PE
programme, and this includes swimming lessons. There is
space in the online medical form for parents to inform us of
their child’s swimming ability. Even if a child cannot swim, we
expect all children to participate in lessons.
We believe that if a child is well enough to attend school then
they should be well enough to participate in PE. However, we
understand that sometimes circumstances mean your child
cannot participate in swimming or other PE activities. Please
send in a note via the student planner explaining why your
child cannot participate in PE.
Homework
The amount and type of homework set differs in each grade;
specific information on homework can be found in the front
of the student planner. Please provide an appropriate space
for your child to complete their homework comfortably.
Access to a home computer of some kind is vital.
Reporting and assessment
Reports are shared with parents at the end of Term 1 and
the end of Term 3. Parents meet with the class teacher for
settling-in interviews at the start of the year and then again
in Term 2. There are parent-teacher conferences and student-
led conferences during the year which enable parents to keep
up-to-date with their child’s progress in school.
Although we have scheduled dates for parents to talk with
the class teacher, appointments can be arranged at other
times if there is an issue that needs to be discussed.9

programme is broken into four seasons, running roughly
parallel to the competitive sporting seasons in which
UWCSEA participates. However, by no means are all activities
sports-related. They cover a range of special interest areas,
including: service (such as the SPCA group or environment
club); sports (both recreational and competitive); music (such
as the choirs); art, craft and games (such as drawing, drama
productions, batik or chess); and special interests (such as
cooking or Lego). This diversity allows students to try out new
experiences and develop interests and hobbies. The selection
changes from season to season.
Many activities are included in the tuition fees; however some
will incur additional fees if we need to purchase materials
or provide external coaching, tuition, transport or uniforms.
The approximate cost will be noted at the time of selecting
activity preferences, and payment will need to be made once
a student is accepted into an activity at the commencement
of the season. Some activities require commitment for more
than one season; this is also noted in the preferencing system
the students use to request activities.
Online activity sign up
Sign-up for activities is done online, and while parents can
browse the available activities, students need to use their
own login to complete their preferences each season. Staff
can also assist new students through the process. Sign-up
opening and closing dates, and full information on how to
sign up, will be posted in eBrief and in the online calendar.10 Parental involvement At UWCSEA we know that parent participation strengthens the College community and the educational experience for students, and we welcome and encourage parent involvement. There are many opportunities for you to get involved, from attending social events, to volunteering at school or in the wider community, to sharing your culture, talent or professional expertise. For those who have the time and interest, volunteering can be a wonderful way to make connections in the College, providing a network of contacts within and beyond your child’s class or grade. Specific opportunities for parental involvement will be advertised in the weekly eBrief newsletter. Parents Online Address Book The parent portal on the website contains a link to an online database of parent contacts. You can search for telephone and email contact details for your child’s classmates on this database. It is important for the success of the database that it is only used for school-related purposes. This is an opt-in address book and we recommend at least one parent elect to appear, which you can indicate in your contact preferences on the portal. Parents’ Association (PA) The PA provides an opportunity for all parents to contribute to the UWCSEA community. Being involved in PA activities provides parents an opportunity to be active participants in their child’s school community, keep up-to-date with happenings in the school and an avenue to meet other parents and members of the wider school community. New parents are encouraged to contribute as much as their time and interests allow. The PA offers many opportunities for parents to become further involved in the life of the school. These include: • coffee mornings and other networking opportunities • nationality-based social events • events such as the Community Fair, Holiday Fair and Careers Fair To contact the PA, see details on the back page or drop in to the PA lounge whilst on campus.
