Dear QISS Families and Friends,
It was great having everyone back to start the 2nd semester of 2017-2018. It has been a cold week here in Qingdao, but the classrooms are heating up with learning. Quarter 2 Report cards are coming home on Friday. On Tuesday, January 16, QISS students will be released at 1pm. QISS teachers will be involved in a professional development session all afternoon.
我们2017-2018第二学期以一个非常棒的姿态开场。这个周的青岛非常的寒冷，但学生在教室里学习的热情却在持续升温。第二学段的成绩单周五下发。而在1月16号星期二，学生将在下午一点放学回家。QISS的老师就将会利用这段时间来进行专业的专业发展培训。
2017-18 학년도의 2학기가 시작되었습니다. 청도는 지금 한파속에 있지만 저희는 매 학급의 배움의 향한 열기로 뜨겁습니다. 이번주 금요일 각가정으로 2쿼터(1학기)의 성적표가 발송됩니다. 1월16일 화요일은 하프데이로 1시에 하교합니다. 하프데이 오후에는 QISS교사들의 전체 교사 회의가 있습니다.
We welcomed Aden Catering Services to our school community on Monday. We are excited about the possibilities that are still there for our school. The initial reviews have been great from staff and students. The Oxygen Bar serves coffee, cakes and sandwiches. Students in the upper school are allowed to purchase these items after they have eaten a regular meal. It has been very popular this first week. These items are a la carte and are an additional charge for the students.
Aden Catering Services在周一已经开始正式为我们整个学校提供服务，最初的反馈来自学校的学生和员工。Oxygen Bar提供咖啡、蛋糕和三明治且非常受欢迎。高中部的学生在吃完正常的午餐以后可以购买。当然这些是单品，需要付额外的费用。
이번주 월요일부터 Aden Catering Services에서 학교식당 운영을 시작하였습니다. 학교식당의 개선 가능성을 볼수 있어 모두 기대에 차있습니다. 초반 시작은 학생들과 직원들의 좋은 반응이 들려오고 있습니다. 새롭게 개설된 Oxygen Bar에서는 커피, 케익 그리고 샌드위치를 판매하고 있으며 중고등부 학생들은 점심식사 후 구매 가능합니다. 첫주 반응은 매우 좋았으며 Oxygen Bar에서 판매하는 음식은 따로 구매해야 하는 품목임을 알려드립니다.
The QISS PTA Executive Board would like to invite all the mama’s to a lunch at the Hyatt Regency this month. Please see the flyer below for more information on date, time and pricing.
