We are excited about our field trip tomorrow to Al Sahra to learn more about the Arabian horse, as well as the oasis culture of the UAE.
Just a couple quick reminders for you, in case you are checking the blog at the last minute:
1. Please send a lunch to school with your child as we will eat it there.
2. Also, kindly have your sweetie wear his/her PE uniform for the field trip to provide maximum comfort.
3. We will be leaving shortly after 8 am and arriving back to school around 12:30 pm.
Thanks so much. Now that the weather has cleared a bit, I think it's going to be a lovely day out for us!
Ms. Leslie taught a wonderful, inspirational lesson today about responsibility and perseverance through sharing the story about an American soldier who took care of a stray dog in Afghanistan and persevered to bring her (and her puppies) back to America even though it was very difficult.
For those of you who would like to share the full story with your family, here is the link. And, this is another one.
Remember this great story when you are thinking of giving up on a task!
I hope many of you were able to get out to enjoy IFF last night sponsored by DAAPA. It was my first time enjoying this interesting event and I was very impressed by the number of countries represented, quality of food, the authentic cutural music and dances by many of our own students, as well as the opportunities to purchase unique, ethnic items (jewelry, scarves, stationary, etc.). I really appreciated every bit of it and hope you did, as well. :)
A very special thank you to all of you parents who worked so hard behind the scenes by sacrificing your time and efforts to make this such a wonderful event. YOU are truly the key to this event's success!
Here are a few photos for your enjoyment and for your memory collection.
