Dear MAK Families,

We’d like to let you know that we are hosting a Volleyball Camp over this year’s CNY break!! 

This camp will not only be beneficial to your volleyball skills and technique, but hopefully you’ll also have a lot of fun during these three days :)) This camp will primarily be focused on strengthening your basic foundation and techniques. Ultimately, we hope that this camp will boost your confidence as a player. The student coaches, Annette Huang (12) and Koki Shibata(12), will also be sharing some advice and tips to help you navigate the court better as well. And if you’re wondering, snacks will be provided :)) 

If you participated in our winter volleyball camp, you may have noticed that the registration fee has increased. This is because we have decided to donate all of our profit towards MAK’s Giving Project AND to provide more snacks/drinks for all of you. This year, MAK is partnering with Taiwan Sunshine, a nonprofit organization working to help children with disabilities. All donations will go towards Taiwan Sunshine’s new project to provide a space for children with disabilities to work for themselves and to sell their produce. 

As we get closer to the start of camp, we’ll send out another email with more information about the schedule and what you’ll need for this camp. 

Feel free to contact us if you have any questions/concerns

MAK的家人們，大家好：

謹此通知您，我們將在今年的春節期間舉辦排球營！！

這個訓練營不僅將提升您的排球技巧和技術，也希望能讓您在這三天中和朋友共度愉快的時光。我們最主要希望能藉由這個營隊來增強您的基本基礎和技術。最終的目的是，我們希望這個營隊將提高您身為球員的信心。學生教練 Annette Huang (12)，Koki Shibata (12)，和 Kristen Tam (12)，也將分享一些建議和技巧，以幫助您更好地進行比賽。我們也會提供運動飲料和一些小點心。

如果您之前參加我們的冬令排球營，您可能已經注意到我們提高收費了。這是因為我們決定將全部盈餘捐贈給MAK的募捐計畫，並為所有人提供更多的點心和飲料。今年，MAK與恩美協會合作，一個幫助身障兒童的機構。所有盈餘將捐予恩美計畫的新項目，為身障兒童提供了一個為自己工作和出售產品的空間。

在營會開始之前，我們將發送另一封電子郵件，將會詳細說明日程安排以及參與訓練營的必攜物品。

如果您有任何疑問/顧慮，請隨時與我們聯繫！

Annette, Koki, Kristen 敬上

Dear MAK parents and students,
Due to the new regulation that the Kaohsiung government set up on 1/27 (Wednesday), we will not be able to host the Talent Show on 2/27. However, we have decided to push back the date of the Talent Show to 3/20 (Saturday), from 5:30 PM to 8:00 PM. 

Here are some adjustments we’ve made to fit with the new date:
Early Bird ticket: 300nt before 2/19 (Friday)
Regular ticket: 400nt before 3/12 (Friday)

Regarding the video audition submit date, we have decided to push the deadline back to 2/16 (Tuesday)! This means that you have the Chinese New Year break to rehearse and to film your audition videos. Acceptance/rejection/call-backs letters of notification will be announced on Friday, February 19th. Call-back live auditions will be held during lunch hours. 

Again, we will be following a series of precautions for Covid-19. If you would like to understand how we will be applying these precautions, feel free to check this document out. 

If you would like to understand the new regulation that the Kaohsiung government has put in place, click here to find out. 

Thank you all for being flexible and understanding, we’re sorry for all inconveniences. 

Sincerely,
HouseCo 2020-21

親愛的 MAK 家長和學生，

由於高雄衛生局在一月27日所公布的新規定，今年的達人秀因此延期至三月20日(六)晚上5:30到8:00。

以下是我們為因應延期所做的一些調整：

二月19日(五)前 早鳥票 300元/張
三月12日(五)前 一般票 400元/張

試鏡影片繳交截止日則延至二月16日，如此一來，大家能利用春節期間去彩排並錄製試鏡影片。我們將於二月19日前公布試鏡結果。必要時，我們將會另行安排現場甄選。

為了大家的安全起見，我們當天會做一些預防措施。如果您想了解當天將採取的措施，請點閱此連結。

如果您想了解此次公布的新規定，請點閱此連結。

謝謝大家的諒解！不便之處，敬請見諒！

HouseCo 2020-21 敬上

Schedule Change Reminder
Tuesday, February 16th will be a regular day of school.  We will NOT hold an online practice day.  Classes will be in person and on campus.  We realize that this day is a national holiday.  If you plan on keeping your child at home on the 16th, please notify the front office and teachers as soon as possible.

行事曆異動提醒
二月16日(二)將變更為一般上課日，而非原訂的線上上課日。所有的課程將會在實體教室內、師生面對面進行。由於這一天為台灣的國定假日，若您已經安排好行程或是決定把小孩留在家的話，請儘早通知辦公室及老師。
