Message from the PA President
Dear AISHK families,
On behalf of the AISHK Parent Association (PA), I would like to extend a warm welcome to new families and staff joining us this year, along with our returning families.
AISHK has come to be known for its warm community and “family feel”. This is largely owed to our supportive parent community who are truly a helping hand and friendly face for the whole school.
Any AISHK parent is automatically considered part of the AISHK Parent Association, and we encourage parents to take advantage of opportunities to support the school and make new connections. The initiatives and activities of the Parent Association are supported by annually-elected volunteers who make up the Parent Association Executive Committee.
The role of the Parent Association is to:
- Welcome and Support You
The PA promotes close cooperation between the School and parent body, and ensuring a welcoming support network for both new and current parents. - Make a Difference
Share your skills and resources to enhance the learning and recreational environment of our students through fund-raising. - Connect!
Getting involved with the PA is a great way to meet fellow parents and make lasting friendships within the community. - Celebrate Community
The PA work as a team with the School to coordinate AISHK’s dynamic community events. - Collaborate and Communicate
The PA works closely with the AISHK Development Office to promote PA activities through the School’s official platforms.
The Parent Association could not be as successful as it has been without the help of our wonderful community. There are many ways to contribute to and benefit from this - from helping volunteering as a Parent Representative for your child's class, getting involved with events and their planning, or by simply attending a PA General Meeting.
To stay up-to-date with school and PA news, I encourage parents to install the AISHK App and read the weekly school e-newsletter, Dhanara. Please also keep an eye on this webpage as meeting and event dates will be published here when confirmed.
If you have any queries, suggestions or would like to learn more about being involved with the PA, please get in touch with me by emailing the aishkpa@aishk.edu.hk.
On behalf of the PA Committee, I look forward to a wonderful 2021, working with the community and getting to know you throughout the year.
