A huge congratulations to Cameron Young, Luke Messom, Callum Dwyer, Ati Underwood, Ato Underwood, Sofia Saavedra, Johanna Rogalla, Lili-anna Morin, Sofia Bellini, Gloria Bellini, Angela Yan and Isobel Ciccocoppo. On Saturday they played several games of touch rugby against adults from national teams such as Singapore, France and Hong Kong. They did an amazing job and competed with all teams, nearly beating the Chinese national team.
Well done to Mr Kay, Mr Chesterman, Miss OBrien, Mrs McBride, Mr Battye and Mrs Battye who competed really well in the Masters division.
Dear staff see you all there for the FCD meeting. This is an important reminder to all of us to remain vigilant and look after our students, regardless of the age we teach.
Dear Grade 12 and Supervisors,
We are in the final countdown to the Extended Essay Deadline. You have 5 weeks remaining until December 2nd. This is the time to refine the analysis, get the final pieces of feedback and polish up the essay ready for submission. The Library workshop will go ahead as usual on Thursday with Ms Rinker on hand for those last minute APA and formatting questions. See you there.

MYP Students-
Don’t forget to return the books that you checked out in August and stop by the library for a new book! Hope to see you soon-
Hi Faculty and Staff-
The library is considering moving some of the print magazines to digital format using an App called Flipster.
The company has granted us a free one-month trial and I am looking for a few people to test-drive the system to see how well it behaves here in China.
Thanks for letting me know if you are interested in checking it out- feedback is much appreciated!

Students and Teachers,
Nov.14-18 is book week. Since Bob Dylan is a Nobel Prize winning poet and song-writer he gets to be the default voice for the bells during this week. However, we’d love to punctuate his wonderful voice with some of yours.
Do you have a favorite book or poem? We’d love to capture your voice reading a favorite excerpt (30-60 seconds). I will organize these to be played for the bell (just once) during Book Week.
For example, you could read excerpts from Green Eggs and Ham, or Romeo and Juliet. You could also read a poem by Shel Silverstein, or Robert Frost. You could even sing a bit of Bob Dylan. If you’d like to contribute but are unsure of what to do, come by the library and we can suggest something to you. 🙂
You can record your own file and send it to me. Don’t say your name in the recording (it’s fun to guess who it is, anyway). Just read your piece, then at the end, tell us what you read, and who the author was. Please have the recordings to me by Wednesday, Nov. 9 (but the sooner, the better, so I can get started on editing!). OR, I can help with the recording.
Warm regards,
John

The old PYP Design room has been transformed into a Maker Space! Please swing by and check it out. This is a space for you to use as you want. Of course, please tidy up before you go. If you have supplies that you would like to house in this room, add them to the shelves now. Sharing our resources is a great way for our school to be more environmentally responsible.
This space is available for use anytime Monday-Thursday.Reserve the room on the sign-up sheet by the door. On Fridays it is reserved for the Grade 4 students who will be working on their Creative New Undertakings, a NIS strategy team prototype. You are all most welcome to come by and see this project in action anytime.
We hope this room will be buzzing with creative energy each and every day.
Please note that this week many SLT and SET members will be out of school. Arden will clarify the points of contact in the briefing today.
