Hello Third Form Parents,

December certainly is an exciting time at the Abbey bringing with it many opportunities to grow in knowledge and grace.  We are a couple of weeks in now to the start of the Winter Term for students.  As our children begin a new term, it is a great time for them to assess how they are doing, what is going well, and what could be better to know how they want to adapt both in and outside the classroom.  A new sports season and the casting of Matilda for performing arts are both already well underway.

Portsmouth Abbey provides many opportunities to make a difference in the lives of others with community service options where students can get involved throughout the year.  There is also a current campus-wide fundraiser for Clothe-A-Child where students can get engaged.

As we anticipate Christmas and Christmas Break, our children are having a joyous time on campus celebrating Advent and through various activities like gingerbread house decorating competitions and Christmas Trivia with Mr. Micheletti.

We wish you and your families a wonderful holiday season and a very Happy New Year!  As always, please reach out if you have any questions.

Merry Christmas!

All the best,

Beth & Adam Conway '94
