After a fierce battle with the Patriots, the Eagles win the game of the century
Without a doubt we must start this week’s edition with this story. In the 52nd Super Bowl, the New England Patriots and Philadelphia Eagles faced off to determine the NFL 2017 season champion. The Eagles won the game with a score of 41-33. Even though I did not know the rules of the game as I watched tv, right from the first half I decided, “Let’s support the local Eagles!” I was so drawn to the excellent performance that the players put on to the extent that i unconsciously cried out with joy the moment the Eagles’ won. Outside, fireworks ascended and the sounds of firecrackers and honking cars resonated in expressed joy. Having been able to experience the moment of the century,and to share in the joy of the Eagles victory will always be a good recollection and memory.
Teachers wanted!
Supplementary schools are fundamentally dependent on guardians’ self-help and mutual assistance, and aided by public assistance including the dispatch of teachers and various governmental support measures.If we are not able to place teachers in accord with the planned number of classes at each grade level of the respective schools and courses, we might have no choice but to suspend certain educational activities of our school, rendering us unable to provide the children with a suitable learning environment. In order to nurture the children’s dreams and hopes,we are recruiting enthusiastic charming persons for roles ranging from teacher candidates to substitute teachers and also learning support staff who provide detailed support for children’s learning.
