This week:

Tomorrow is our field trip to the FCJ center. Lunch is provided, students need only bring a small snack. We will be indoors (including the chapel) and outdoors, so dress comfortably and respectfully. Thank you.

Tuesday is our sports day in the afternoon, and the grade 6ers will be leading the stations. They can dress in their country or origin colors for the Olympics. Everyone needs to bring a water bottle clearly marked with their name. After all the classes have passed through, the grade 6ers will be able to have 20 minutes for themselves to play. Unfortunately due to the water shortage, no water fight will be permitted like last year. Thank you for understanding. 

Wednesday will be our cleaning day, including desks, inside and out, shelves, books, etc. We have not discussed the afternoon yet, but a movie is a possibility, including signing yearbooks and saying final goodbyes.
