Welcome Party Song

Here are the song and lyrics to learn for the Welcome Party.

Tea Ceremony/Welcome Party Update

To confirm, we will be meeting at the Russells' home (901 Alameda St) at 12:45 tomorrow to leave shortly before 1:00 for the tea ceremony in Pebble Beach.  The ceremony itself will start at 1:30 and will last until about 2:30.  I expect we will be back at our house by 2:45.  Remember to dress nicely, but comfortably with clean, all-white socks and to remove dangly earrings, necklaces, and bracelets.  Also remove, or don't wear, large or flashy rings.  For those with long hair, please tie it up or back to prevent it from falling in your tea bowl when you bow!

After we return to our house, we will work on a Welcome Banner with Ms. Weiss and Ms. Pettas until 4:00pm.  All students who can, please stay and help make the banner.

See you all tomorrow for a serene, but fun afternoon!

Ramen Fundraiser Practice

On Tuesday the chaperones met to try our hand at making ramen from scratch and to test the feasibility of a Ramen/Anime Fundraising Party.  Results were delicious and we had a lot of fun making everything.  We will now investigate how to make the fundraiser happen.  I'll keep you posted.
