Welcome to our November Newsletter! October was a busy month in Boston! We had the first snow of the season and had a great Halloween Party at GEOS Boston. Our Halloween Party was a great success! We want to thank our students, teachers and staff for participating in the event. In addition to dressing up, students got to participate in many different Halloween activities such as Tarot Card readings, pumpkin carving and pumpkin bowling. Students voted for best costumes! The award for the Cutest Costume went to Ching Che. The award for Scariest Costume went to Omar, and the award for Most Creative Costume went to Salafah.
Please be advised that there is no school on Thursday, November 24 and Friday, November 25 due to Thanksgiving.
Again, please keep in touch and add "GEOS Boston" as your friend on FACEBOOK! Feel free to upload your pictures and share the experiences you have had with your friends.
I would translate GEOS BOSTON as a family, because that is the way I felt during my period here. As a normal family we had a little problem but always staff and teachers found solutions. The only word I have to explain myself now is 'thank you GEOS" because I learn not only English but also made friends that I will carry for my life. Thanks.
