From Principal
Elaine Hsu
We are preparing for our
Chinese Cultural Day event on February 7, 2010 to celebrate Chinese
New Year. There will be plenty of food, games and raffle tickets for
prizes to signify a new prosperous year. We welcome all families and
their friends to participate in this event. Donation of raffle
prizes will be greatly appreciated. If you can help, please contact
Su-Ju Chen (
978) 251-0171, jshiau1@msn.net.
We sincerely thank the following Staff members and parents
for their generous donations: Sue Chiu, Irene Huang, Chia Shen, and
Doris.
We still need larger prizes for carnival games on Cultural
Day. If you have suitable toys or stationery items you can donate
for this purpose, please bring them to the Office this Sunday.
Thanks a lot.
Tickets for food/games (4 for $1) and raffles (1 for $5, 3
for $10, 7 for $20) will be pre-sold in the Office this Sunday. We
encourage you to get them this week to avoid the long line on
Cultural Day. This year, the same ticket can be used for both food
and games; there will be no refund for unused tickets.
We are looking for parent helpers for the Arts & Crafts
booth on Cultural Day. Arts & Crafts teacher Yu-Chuan Dao will
be demonstrating the planned event items, including Tiger Mask, Red
Envelope Lantern, Chinese Knots, etc., in the Office from 2 to 5 pm
this Sunday. Please come join us if you're interested. Thanks.
