International Food Festival – Friday, June 9

Grade 10 students are holding an International Food Festival on Friday, June 9 as part of their unit on Business Enterprise with all proceeds being donated to the KIVA organization. Students will sell a variety of food and drink items, ranging from mochi to lemonade, to fruit puddings to sausage rice sticks. All ingredients will be posted so students are aware of what they are eating. Prices will range from 5-20 RMB per item.

Students will pay with tickets: neither Cash nor WeChat will be accepted on June 9th. Tickets may be bought in increments of 5RMB and only cash will be accepted.

  • Grades 3-11 students will be able to purchase tickets during Break from June 5-8

Secondary Students: gentle reminders

Gentle reminder to all Secondary Students to maintain the rules that we have in place for safety, environmental protection and respect for one another;

  1. Students may not bring food or drinks onto campus from outside: this includes after school
  2. Bags may not be brought into the cafeteria at lunchtime: they should be placed in lockers

Thank you for your cooperation and support for our community.

 

Library books due Wednesday, May 31

Parents and students, please return all library books by Wednesday, May 31. As mentioned in the weekly bulletin, there will be no summer checkout this year due to the library temporarily moving upstairs to the cafeteria.

Teachers, please return any library books you are finished with. If you need to use  books for the next few weeks, please check them out this week and kindly return them by June 20.

We start boxing up the library on Thursday, June 1.

Professional Development books over summer holidays

Want some reading material for when you are lying on a beach this summer, sipping a piña colada? Looking for an excuse to get away from the in-laws asking when you’re going to move back home and/or have a(nother) kid? I have the answer for both!

Feel free to check out professional development books from the library over the summer, but don’t wait until the end of school to get them! We will begin packing up the library on June 1, and while the professional development books will be packed last, they will be boxed up by June 9.
