It is our tradition to hold a Welcome
Back Dinner to receive all the new teachers and parents, and
at the same time welcome our "old" teachers and parents
back to school after a long summer break. This year approximately
160 people attended this fun-filled event which included performances
from the Cheerleading club and the "Cadenza"
club.

This year, the PTA helped with the Halloween celebration by sponsoring
game booths and providing snacks and drinks.

This was the fourth year
we held this annual event and it surpassed all the others with
over 2,000 attendees! Our theme this year
was an International one. There were 74 stalls featuring international
games such as: Chilean ball toss, Japanese sumo wrestling, origami,
American basketball drills, and Egyptian Cartouche. The international
food stalls offered Brazilian, Jamaican, Japanese, Korean, Mexican,
Peruvian, Singaporean, Taiwanese and American food. Representatives
of the Kaohsiung World Games 2009 performed mini game previews
of gymnastics featuring ball, hoop, club, rope and ribbon exercises
as well as dance sports. Entertainment for the Fun Fair was provided
by our very own KAS student performers from various groups/clubs.
Our primary goal this year was to donate a substantial amount
towards the purchase of a school bus for the Eden Social Welfare
Foundation - Fongshan Children's Intervention Center. We are
proud to announce that we contributed NT 350,000 towards
their new bus!

Every
year the PTA holds in the Cafetorium a Thanksgiving Lunch for
the faculty and students of both the Elementary and Secondary
Schools. Children enjoyed pumpkin pies, turkey and a great
community atmosphere!

The PTA also sponsors KTV events where the parents who work so hard
volunteering for school events get to relax with a little karaoke.

Our PTA Youth Camp was held on April 28-29, 2007. We had over 65
participants! The camp was held at Cheng-Ching Lake Youth Activity
Center with the goal of cultivating in participants, an interest
in nature through activities and challenges. Through these
activities, participants picked up problem-solving skills,
experienced the wonders of life sciences, and improved independent
thinking skills.
