No class on September 21, 2021 (Mid Autumn festival) and September 28, 2021

We'll make up for them by adding two classes at the end of the term on November 30 and December 7, 2021. 

For September 14, 2021

A warm welcome to the new members of our class Megan, Amy Chang, Ivy, and Wilson!

On September 7, 2021, members of the class discussed, voted, and decided to have our class in the school throughout this term. 

Could Jason and Jo please let me know if you're OK with this? If you are, I will tell the school as the school needs all members of the class to be aware of what the class decides and feel OK about it before reporting to the Education Bureau.

If you would like to participate online while the class is held in the school, please let me know as well, so that I will get online and wait for you to join in like I did on September 7. I will also need to let the school know we're running the class in the school and online simultaneously.

Please call up a member of the class to prompt me you are waiting to come in if I'm not responding to let you join the Google Meet meeting (class) because I may be helping other members of the class and not looking at my cell phone screen at the moment. 

If you plan to participate in the second class online, please let me know by this Sunday, September 12.  I'd like to know a couple of days ahead to prepare.
