Lost property
I have a growing mountain of lost property in my office. Have you lost a phone? Your glasses? Your watch? Your jewellery? You wallet? Some money?
I might have it. Come and see me….even if you lost it a while ago.
Quiet Lunch in the Library
Today is the final day for our effort to provide a quiet study space at lunch. Please only come if you plan to work or read quietly (all others should go to the upstairs of the cafeteria).
Thanks for your cooperation-

BBC Webcast
Owen Suskind was a chatty toddler when at 3 he developed regressive autism. I heard this story told by his Dad and Owen on the BBC yesterday and was so moved by it.
Please listen and reflect…we are so fortunate to be part of an inclusive, caring, learning community.

It is an amazing story. It will only take a few minutes of your time.
Thanks

CNY Skit
Each year, the teachers and students at NIS put together a Chinese New Years skit to perform during the CNY assembly. This is made up of both Chinese and non-Chinese speakers, students and teachers alike. If you’d like to perform in this skit, then please contact Miss Keus by Wednesday, December 14th. The skit will be 10 minutes long, so we only need less than 10 people. At the moment, we are looking for the following roles:
- some teachers and staff who were born in the Year of the Rooster.
- a Chinese-speaking student who can help write the script with Miss Keus.
- anyone else who is confident performing in either English and/or Chinese.
I will, of course, be chasing up our normal crew of performers, as we all want to see Mr. Tyoschin dancing, Kostya fighting, etc.
Remember… You’re Invited!
Don’t miss the opportunity to meet up with all of your favourite NIS friends and colleagues, to receive possibly the best Christmas gift of the season and to share and enjoy some delicious light snacks.
When: Friday 9th December from 4:00 – 6:00ish
Where: Staff Lounge
