Smile Day - 12th March
For Smile Day we are having a cake sale, a fashion show and non-uniform day.
All children have been encouraged to do a chore or job at home to earn the 100 baht they will donate on smile day for the privilege of wearing non-uniform.
Remember that the money will go towards paying for operations, such as Cleft palate reconstructive surgery.
For the fashion show 3W have the chance to dress me up in some clothes.
If this is going to happen, then we need to talk about it in class!

Does gold reflect light?
Which word describes objects which are see through?
If something is translucent, can you see through it clearly?
