BINGO returns to Discovery! - Proceeds to buy    TECHNOLOGY for the school. Please mark your calendars for Saturday, May 4! Lunch will be sold for all attending families, friends and guests starting at 11:00 a.m. and the grand BIGO will begin at 1:30 p.m. PARENT COLLABORATION NEEDED in donating prizes for this event. Please contact Ms. Ivonne Casco at icasco@discoveryschool.edu.hn  (2221-7790 and 9960-0070) or Ms. Nora Sierra Ms. Nora Sierra at nsierra@discoveryschool.edu  (2221-7790 and 9985-0732) if you can help by donating gifts.  The school will send home, a closed envelope with 5 tickets that we are asking each family to sell for Lps. 150 each. You will then need to send back the envelope with the money to the school, addressed to Ms. Carolina or Ms. Gloria. The school will keep record of each family payment. Make sure you contact the school if you are sending the envelope with your child, especially if he/she is very young, so we can follow up on the envelope.

On the day of the event, you will find the TICKET TABLE, where you will be able to turn in the stubs and collect your Bingo Cards. You may also buy more tickets if needed. Don’t miss this opportunity to collaborate with the school and spend a wonderful afternoon with your family.
