New Announcements

Dear ELS Members,

As you all know, there is the usual quiz on Wednesday. There are 2 things you need to take note of. Firstly, please bring your previous 2-letter word quiz so that we can take down the scores. Secondly, please take note that you can write your 2-letter words in this format:

AA
   B
   D
   E
.
.
.

This is to allow you to write more 2-letter words within the limited time.

Thanks!

Best Regards,
Justin Kuan

New Announcements!

Dear ELS Members,

This first announcement concerns the members participating in the Superzonals. Please comment at the 'comment' section of this post if you would like transport back to school after the event. Republic Polytechnic is at Woodlands and it might be a tad inconvenient for some of you. This is a suggestion, but if there are sufficient members needing the transport, we will be getting the transport. So do comment A.S.A.P.

Secondly, for the next CCA meeting (01/08/2012), we would be having our second ELS Scrabble Quiz. The format of the questions is the same so do memorise your 2-letter words.

Thanks!

Best Regards,
Justin Kuan
