September school happenings

This has been a busy month...

We had an open house, started after school clubs (I'm doing an art club with grade 1s), lots of meetings, and peace day.

This week we were celebrating the Mid Autumn Festival, and we had a dragon dance performance and traditional moon cakes for snack at school. The dragons performed in the courtyard and then came into our classrooms to deliver the moon cakes.  I love when we get these interesting cultural experiences at school!

  1. Interesting cultural experience indeed!!!I think this would be one of the BEST reasons to teach in another country...to be able to be exposed to new ideas and customs allow us to better understand and APPRECIATE other people!Peace, brothers and sisters!!!
