Hello,

I hope your Summer holiday has been wonderful, safe, relaxing, hassle free and re-invigorating.

We are looking forward to welcoming you and your family back at St. Anne's when you arrive. If you have left HK, please know that we have enjoyed having your children in the program.

Please log in now and register your students for 2016-17 CCD classes. If you have forgotten your password, you can reset it. Once you have logged in, you should see a "CCD Registration" link in the top menu.

Please give some thought to helping out. Many of last years teachers will no longer be with us this year and we are in need of teacher, teacher assistants and substitute teachers. There is a section on the Pre Registration form where you can indicate your willingness to serve. We can't do this with out you. The CCD program at St. Anne's is 100% volunteer.

I have attached the calendar here so you can see when classes start.

Once again, we look forward to welcome you back when we see you.

In Him,

CCD Team
