Year-End Special Activities--Dec. 13, 15, 16

That time of the year be upon us! And we at MicroSkills have lined up special activities to support your quest for language learning and social integration!

On Thursday, Dec. 15, our Level 4 - 5 class is headed for CBC's Glenn Gould Studio in the CBC Building at 250 Front St. for its 10:45 a.m. Sounds of the Season taping. We should leave the Southbound Platform of Sheppard Yonge Station no later than 9:15 a.m. and get into line at the Studio as early as possible.

And, finally, our Graduation Ceremony-cum-Christmas Concert-cum-Year-end Potluck Luncheon happens on Friday, Dec. 16. Please come to class on time on that day, bringing with you a big dish to share with your schoolmates. We will also be preparing a class presentation for the concert on that day. What rules of potluck etiquette can you can think of?



    
Merry Christmas! Let's celebrate the joys of the season!
