【School Notices: A Letter to Makopanians (Excerpt)】
【For the Reference of Native English-Speaking Students & Parents】
Dear Parents,
Message from the Principal
Two Icelandic visitors – a school Principal and a teacher visited our school last week. They
introduced the background, culture and environment of Iceland to our students. Our students also
introduced the local festival, unusual local food, tourist attractions and shopping places in Hong Kong
to our guests. Our guests were very impressed with students’ discipline and learning attitude,
especially when they proactively stood up as the guests played the Icelandic national song during the
sharing.
Our school will hold a parents’ seminar this Saturday. The topic is “Life Planning - Establishing a
supportive family for the bright future of students” and the seminar will be delivered by Dr. Sylvia C. L.
Chen, J.P., a famous parent and children’s educational specialist. Parents are invited to join to reflect
how to help the growth of their children.
