GIVING TREE

Please give generously to support a Pfrang Student. This year, we hope to provide 280 Giving Tree packages to the PFRANG students in rural Jiangsu and Anhui provinces. These students are either orphans or who have handicapped parents. These packages contain toothpaste and toothbrush, socks, face cloths etc – items that we take for granted. Each package is only 100 rmb. Please donate, ask your advisory, your house team, your basketball team, your friends, your rock band to contribute some money. Use your Grade 10 Business profits, your babysitting money, your allowance. Every little bit helps.

Please email Ms Anna or stop by the Centre Foyer in the mornings or after school.

Holiday Sales in the Foyer.

Student and Staff:

FOUR CHARITIES HOLIDAY SALE

Starting Wednesday until Friday, the Four Charities will be selling a lovely selection of gifts and treats in front of the library. We have winter jackets at fabulous prices just for you.

Please buy something big or small for yourself or for your family and friends. All proceeds support those who need our help the most.

NIS Quiz – this Thursday Night – after the gig

That is right – you can go see a music event in the Black Box and then come join the quiz in the theatre.  Send me your team names – only 5 people in a team and at least one must be a student at NIS.

Send your team name and members to me by 5pm on Tuesday to guarantee a table.

We are still taking submission of questions from students.  So if you have a question on any subject you learn at NIS then please send it (with the answer) to me.
