Dear esteemed parents and guardians, We extend our heartfelt congratulations to our remarkable students for successfully completing their English exams! Following the conclusion of the 2nd Big Test, we treated the students to an engaging exploration of the history of Thanksgiving, aligning with our tradition of celebrating this occasion every fourth Thursday of November. To provide a well-deserved break after the rigorous test, we organized a delightful session where the students relaxed and enjoyed a comical turkey story. To ensure that the learning spirit continued, we incorporated some thought-provoking questions into the session.
