- End of Year Achievement Assembly
- All GU students will attend the Achievement Assembly on Sunday 19th May. Students who achieved best academic results in different subjects and those who applied best effort will be awarded special certificates. Congratulations to students, we are very proud of you.
- Exams and assessment
- GU term 3 examinations will start on Tuesday 14th May. All students should be present during exams, please note that we will not allow students repeat any exams as this is against KES policy. In case of a serious medical/health emergency exception could be allowed however, this will only happen when we have a valid doctor report.
- Students should arrive to school in the morning and attend the regular flag raising assembly. Infants and GLP students should arrive directly to the unit.
- In case of students arriving late, exam results will be reduced, therefore it is extremely important to ensure your son/daughter will be at school on time (by 8.30 am at the latest)
