AVA matters: Recalling all CD-players for Year-end Stock-take

Dear Colleagues,

The school year is coming to an end.  As such, I will need all form/co-form teachers to ensure that the classroom CD players are returned to the Control Room (Level 3 above the back of the school hall).  This is to facilitate year-end stock-take.

If your class has returned the CD player, do just REPLY this email ( careful NOT to REPLY ALL ) , stating the following details:

Classroom:  __________  (eg. 6D)

Date returned:   ___________  (eg. 7 Nov 2012)

Thank you in advance.

Re: Recalling all CD players for maintenance -- in preparation for PSLE (LC) [14Sep2012]

Dear colleagues,

URGENT

I will need the help of AM teachers going into classes in the first period tomorrow to send the a ICT rep from their class to return the CD players to the control room, first thing in the morning.  The AVA vendor is coming in at 9am tomorrow (Thu, 30Aug) to service all the CD players.  

Do get the rep to move as far in as possible into the control room and place the CD players on the floor.

Currently, as at 8/29/2012 16:25:07, the number of CD players returned is pathetic.

Once you have returned the CD players, do just reply to this email (careful NOT to "reply all" else you will end up "spamming" everyone)

Regards,

Mr Chang C.L.

Recalling all CD players for maintenance -- in preparation for PSLE (LC) [14Sep2012]

Dear form/co-form teachers,

Do send your trusty ICT leaders to return your classroom CD players to the Control Room (@Level 3, above the back of the hall) ASAP (Not later than Wed, 29Aug2012).  The room is NOT locked during school hours.  

Do adhere to the deadline as the AVA vendor will be coming next Thursday 30Aug2012.

Mr Chee, please note that the AVA vendor (Mr Ong from VISCOM) will be coming to our school between 9am to 11am next Thursday (30Aug2012) to carry out this maintenance work on the CD players and Hi-fi sets.  Do allow him access to the Control Room and AVA room.  FYI/FYA.

Thanks all in advance.
