You will find many exciting items that you can share with your children such as feature articles, information, stories and much more. Our first edition focuses on Chinese New Year and has been researched, written, and collated by our Student Council supported by Mrs Bailey and Miss McCarthy. We hope you enjoy sharing this together. Please click here to access the newspaper. Editions of our newspaper will be held within our virtual library and on shelves. We also re-attach our special Chinese New Year Virtual Celebration Assembly here as we celebrate this special time in Hong Kong. We look forward to seeing the children back after Chinese New Year, especially now that they will have two consecutive days in school! Kung Hey Fat Choi to all of our KJS families. Kind regards 亲切的问候, सधन्यवाद Neill O'Reilly Principal CNY Assembly Bonus VideoWe hope you enjoyed the Chinese New Year Virtual Celebration Assembly, shared last Friday. At KJS we are so excited about celebrating Chinese New Year that we have a bonus video to share with you! Thank you to Nathan, Dip, and Russell from the Student Council for their contribution. https://vimeo.com/509092739/8efd62d955 Library News We're looking for Mother Tongue Reader volunteers to read to our students. At the moment, we're looking for Parents who can volunteer 15 minutes of their time to read to our students via Zoom. Our Library staff will help facilitate the link. You just need to read from a storybook that you have at home. Languages that we're specifically looking for would be Hindi, Korean, or Japanese. We've already received kind offers for Spanish, Cantonese, and Mandarin. If you have another language not listed above, it would be wonderful too. Our students love the opportunity to listen to stories in different languages and in the past, this is the most popular event. Please help us continue this wonderful Book Week tradition. Please email Ms. Lau at macy.lau@kjs.edu.hk if you can help. Have a wonderful Chinese New Year Holiday!
