Dear Parents, 

I hope this message finds you well and that our students are enjoying their summer break — resting, recharging, and discovering new interests. 

As we prepare to welcome everyone back on 23 June 2025, I’m happy to share some updates about the summer preparations and improvements on our campus. Our operations team has been working tirelessly through the summer, ensuring a vibrant and inspiring environment for our students to return to. From upgrades to final checks, every detail is being thoughtfully handled to make our campus warm and welcoming for the year ahead. 

We have made significant strides in upgrading our facilities to further enrich the learning environment at Oakridge: 

STEAM Lab: Our new STEAM Lab is coming soon to empower students to innovate, experiment, and create. It’s designed to be a dynamic space for hands-on learning, sparking curiosity, and encouraging collaboration across Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics. 

Skating Rink: The upcoming skating rink promises to be a wonderful addition to our sports facilities, giving students an exciting way to build balance, coordination, and confidence. 

Classroom Upgrades: Classrooms have been upgraded to better support modern learning. With enhanced resources, these spaces are designed to support our students’ comfort and engagement. 

We’re looking forward to welcoming our teachers back a week before the students return. During this time, they will be preparing to ensure a seamless transition for our students and an engaging, supportive start.  

Thank you for your continued support in making Oakridge a vibrant learning community. I am filled with excitement for all the meaningful learning, exploration, and achievements that lie ahead. 

Warm regards, 
Shaila Bhamidipati
