sand issue
Parents Association purchased brooms and dust pan for cleaning.
Sign-up sheet for gate-front area cleaning volunteers is posted at the garage.
Thank you for everybody who volunteered.
We ask for your continued support.
We also purchased a brush to clean stroller wheels before entering the church building.
We decided to take off our shoes before entering church hall during school events. Please bring your own slippers.
From mochi-pounding festival committee
We will finally have the mochi festival on
Sunday (11th, 1:00pm - 3:30pm).
Thank you very much for all the donations and volunteering.
If you have not brought your donation items to the school, please bring them by
Friday, Jan 9th. (Please write your class and name)
If you have volunteered for the event, please obtain your volunteer badge at the registration, and return it when you are done.
Even if you have not signed up but are willing to help, please let one of the committee members (those with Happi, Japanese festive jacket) know.
Please help us make this annual mochi-pounding festival safe and enjoyable.

Notice about Mochi festival
According to feedback from many parents last year, we are going to try the following this year. Please read, understand, and follow these rules. We thank you in advance for your corporation.
*** The mochi that are ready to eat will be divided at the designated table. Please line up in front of each person dividing the mochi, rather than one line at the end of the table.
