Faculty

Today,
Mr Jack, inaugurated our first Faculty vs Students Soccer game. This was open

seven teachers who bravely played an outstanding game against four different
student teams, who each played one quarter.
Congratulations

Feb
Fling
Feb
Fling is coming up and we hope you are all as excited as we are. The purpose of
Feb Fling is to raise money for High School service clubs through a fair of
booths for Middle and Elementary School. Last year we had a great turn out and
were able to supply service clubs with lots of funds. We encourage you all to
come to Feb Fling to support the high School service clubs. Tickets will be on
sale all of next week in the mornings and after school, in front of the
elementary and main office. Tickets will be priced at 400 rupees and will
include one free meal and one raffle. Tickets can also be purchased on the day,
for 500 rupees. Finally, people from outside the school can come as well, so if
you have any friend who would like to come they can. We have a plethora of
great booths this year so we hope you will all come.
