Dear Teachers,

For my DP Music IA, I’m leading the concert band students to participate in Nanjing City Wall Music Festival on May 17th. This day is a student-led conference day but the students are leaving at noon so they will be able to participate in the morning session. We will make sure that they join the morning conferences.

May 15th, 3:15 – 4:15 – Documentary Video
May 17th – Performance

Please see attached list of performers.
Best regards,
Jim

TODAY! Pre-K/K1A Pumpkin Plant Pop-Up Shop!

The Pre-K/K1A gardeners began their pumpkin inquiry last October with three little pumpkins, and now they have hundreds of little pumpkin sprouts. They will be selling their pumpkin plants in front of the school at the start of the day and in front of the library during break and lunchtime. Small pumpkin plants are 5RMB and large plants are 10RMB. They accept cash, WeChat, or Alipay, and all proceeds will go to Pfrang so that “all the children can go to school.” Get your pumpkin plant today and get a head start on your Halloween harvest plans. Thanks for your support of our littlest gardeners!

The MYP workshop is open this Friday (5th May) from 12-1pm for G7-10 students to finish off projects.
