Greetings MAK Parents and Guardians,

Throughout this week, all of our middle school and high school students will be participating in an Impact Trip.  An Impact Trip aims to connect students with educational experiences that train and inspire them to affect the world significantly.  These trips foster the integration of experiential learning outside the classroom and into our community.  We hope to see each student reach up to God, reach into each other, and reach out to the world.  Would you please join me in remembering our students and teachers in prayer?  Please pray for Jesus to provide safety, protection, fun, smooth travel, and deeper friendships.  Most of all, let’s pray for God to provide lots of fun new memories.  

In Christ, 

Dr. Kim

親愛的家長,

我們所有的中學生和高中生本週都將參加影響力之旅。影響之旅旨在將學生與教育經歷聯繫起來,以培訓和激勵他們對世界產生重大影響。這些旅行促進體驗式學習在課堂之外融入我們的社區。我們希望看到每個學生都能接觸到上帝,接觸到彼此,接觸到世界。請你和我一起在禱告中記念我們的學生和老師嗎?請祈求耶穌提供安全、保護、樂趣、順利的旅行和更深的友誼。最重要的是,讓我們祈求上帝提供許多有趣的新回憶。

主內,

金博士

Hands and Feet Day – ES Chapel


“For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink.” ~Jesus (Matthew 25:35)
Elementary Hands and Feet service day is happening on December 3rd. We will be serving the homeless community at CoLife by preparing Christmas gifts for the members who live at the shelter. We hope students can share the love and cheer of Christmas by donating gifts! This is a freewill donation and is not required by every student. However, we do encourage everyone who is willing and has the means to participate! Each grade has been assigned one gift item to bring in as a donation. Our goal is to collect 95 of each of the items on the list! Donation collection ends on Wednesday, December 1st.


Kinder – socks
G1 – toothbrush & toothpaste
G2 – soap & shampoo
G3 – cup noodles & Pringles chips
G4 – box of tea
G5 – chocolates

Thank you for your support and enthusiasm as we teach the students at MAK how to care for “the least of these” for Christ!

Why Is Hand Washing So Important?     

It’s a message worth repeating — hand washing is by far the best way to keep kids from getting sick and prevent the spread of germs.

為什麼洗手這麼重要呢?

這是值得一再宣導的訊息—目前為止,洗手是預防疾病以及和防止細菌傳播的最佳方法。

If your child is sick and has a fever, please go back to school at least 24 hours after the fever is gone without using anti-fever drugs. Make sure to rest at home when sick to avoid the spread of the epidemic.

若您的孩子生病發燒,請在未使用退燒藥物下,至退燒後至少24小時才能返回學校上課,落實生病在家休息,避免疫情傳播。


Congrats to Michael for winning 1st place in the Kaohsiung Art Competition!
