Hello All,
Linked below are two documents regarding campus access that we’d love some feedback on. This first is a draft “Campus Access Guide” primarily targeted at parents to help systematize and communicate our phases of campus access. The second is a draft “Campus Access Continuum” which will be an internal document we use to clarify who can access campus and when. If you are interested, please have a look and send Kasson any feedback by Wednesday morning. Thanks!
Overheard in the cafeteria queue…
Nora (Student 1): Did you here this year’s production is Shakespeare?
Dora (Student 2): You’re joking! Why would they do that to us? There’s no way I’m going to that!
Flora (Student 3): Me neither. No-one except teachers understands Shakespeare.
Fauna (Student 4): What’s Shakespeare?
Mr.Hammond: It’s actually very funny.
Nora: Did you hear something?
Dora: Nah, it was just a teacher noise. Ignore it.
Mr.Hammond: It’s a comedy!
Flora: Hmmm… But it’s the only production we have this year. Maybe we should go…
Fauna: What’s Shakespeare?
Nora: But I only like musicals.
Mr.Hammond: There’s a song in it!
Nora: I keep hearing a teacher noise. It’s so annoying!
Dora: Yeah, it’s lunchtime and this is a teacher-free zone!
Flora: Hmmm… The productions here are always totally amazing. Maybe we should go…
Mr.Hammond: The set is fantastic, the decorations are magical, the acting is superb…
Dora: There’s that noise again. Some weird buzzing…
Mr.Hammond: The play is hilarious, a joke a minute, laughs for everyone…
Nora: Yeah, like a mosquito. I don’t understand a word it says…
Flora: Hmmm… It would be a great night out, and it’s only 30 RMB. Maybe we should go…
Fauna: What’s Shakespeare?!

Here is the video tutorial.
Students in Grades 6-12; here is a Monday Morning Mind Teaser: Can you bring food and drink into your classes? Can you eat your breakfast in Advisory? Can you carry a can of coke in your bag and pull it out when you are thirsty in class? What about a quick munch on a banana if you are peckish in class?
The answer to all of these is:no.
You may bring water to class. You may eat during break and lunch.
