But most importantly, we would like all of our school children in the parade! We would like the public to notice our fantastic contribution to the Trondheim school community!

Dear preschool families
Finally spring is here. Spring is the time for several great and important activities. One of them is the THIS Preschool’s Annual General Meeting (AGM).
This year our AGM will be held in the canteen on Wednesday 9th of May at 17.00. Under the menu Governance (or the link http://this.no/preschool-agm-2012/ ) you will find the invitation to the AGM with additional documents. The annual report and the preschool bylaws are official documents and must therefore be in Norwegian. The board will make sure that there is an English translation of the bylaws in the future.
Please note that preschool staff and children will prepare a preschool art exhibition from 15.30 on the same day. The board wish to invite the preschool families and staff for a vegetarian soup with bread from 16.00. The preschool will arrange for babysitting during the AGM.
We hope to see you on the 9th of May.
Best regards

Dear Parents and Caregivers,
We are now offering the students a lot of activities during the afternoon and in the morning. The clubs will be teachers, SFO staff and MYP students. The clubs will be open for students in Year 1-6.
We want your child to stay in our safe environment highly educated after school activities.
Click here for (Descriptions for Clubs) and (April ASL) for more information regarding some clubs which are divided into age groups and some have limited space.
So please sit down with your child and look through the clubs. As soon as they have found something they are especially interested in, you can sign up by emailing Ms.Mascha (mascha@this.no) your child’s name, the year level and which club they want to join. The clubs will start in week 17 (23.04.2012). You can choose only one club a day because they all run at the same.
The students come down to the lunchroom after school, get a snack and then they will go into their clubs from 15.00-16.30. They need to be picked up or leave the school at 16.30. Please let me know about your childs transport details.
| The clubs cost | 350,-/club/month |
| For the second club | 350,-/ club/ month |
| For the third one and more | 300,-/club/month |
*If the student has a sibling joining a club too, the sibling pays 300,-/club/month.
Homework clubs in the morning and all MYP clubs run for free.
For SFO students access to the clubs is included in their SFO fee, but they need to sign up too.
You need to sign up for one period with one month notice.
If you have any questions about the after school clubs please contact me at
