Doors to Playground 

PDS requires us to use only the main entrance to enter the building. Doors that open to outside (playground, upper/lower gym exits) should remain CLOSED at all times. Students who wish to use the playground during recess should come back through the main entrance – please give yourself sufficient time to return to class. DO NOT prop the door open.

Upcoming Events

MESSAGES FROM ACADEMIC DIRECTOR 

Word Recognition Contest Winners – Correction

In the last week’s newsletter, the award for advance group (高年級組) was mistakenly announced that Kyle Chen (陳澤凱) won the 2nd place and Alicia Lee (李紫萱) won the 3rd place. It should be Kyle Chen (陳澤凱) won the 1st place and Alicia Lee (李紫萱) won the 2nd place. Sorry about the error. Updated winner list is shown below. No change to other groups.

MESSAGES FROM CULTURE DIRECTOR 

Congratulations to our YoYo Contest winners!
