***Important note about Thursday, Feb. 6th***

**Please note these two important items for Thursday**

Dear Parents, 

As you are aware from media coverage, the Dubai Tour cycle race will impact on traffic in the Dubai area tomorrow and over the weekend. GEMS schools will remain open on February 6th as normal. However we do acknowledge that school buses and general transport might have difficulties accessing certain areas; more specifically in Motor City, Al Sufouh Area, Media City and The Palm Jumeirah. Therefore drop-off at the end of the school day could be adversely affected and delayed. Should you have any specific difficulties, kindly contact your school directly. Thank you for the understanding and cooperation. 

Best Regards, 
Servee Palmans
Director School Administration & Business Operations
GEMS Education

Dear Parents,

Due to the Dubai Cycle event taking place over the next four days and its impact on the traffic around the Dubai American Academy campus, we have decided to postpone the ES Track and Field Day.
The new date of the ES Track and Field Day will be Tuesday, February 11th between 8am-1pm.
This means that tomorrow, Thursday, February 6th, will be a normal day of school.  Please have your students dressed in the proper school uniform, formal or PE (save those colors for Tuesday!).
There will be no hot lunch service tomorrow due to the short notice, so please send a lunch with your child.

Thank you for your understanding as we do our best to manage this situation.

Kind Regards,

The ES Admin Team and ES PE Department
