We are looking ahead to the start of the auditions with Ms. Joy for next month's Elementary Picnic, and we also have two assemblies next week. In addition, I should inform you that I will be out of the country from January 28 through Feb 10, as I will be attending three hiring fairs in the US with Alan Knobloch. Alan has already attended two fairs in Bangkok, and we will be looking for more excellent and experienced faculty at these upcoming fairs. More on the upcoming weeks at ISD below....

Notes:

1. Elementary Musical Picnic - February 20: Ms. Joy has a sign-up for the tryouts for the Elementary Musical Picnic. This event is slated for February 20 from 4:00pm on the field. Please let Ms. Joy know to arrange an audition: K-5 all welcome. 

2. Pre-K 4 on Neighborhood Walks: Both Pre-K 4 classes took part in walks around our neighborhood as part of their class projects last week. They saw a lot, which spurred much work back in class:

3. Pre-K 3 Discovering Flight: ....at the same time, our Pre-K 3 class were looking into transport, and were discovering the power of flight!:
