Except from Mr. Anders' speech:
Dear Newton staff! This event is a small "thank you" to all of your hard work and dedication. Hopefully it will create a chance for some good bonding, while enjoying food, live music and having a few drinks.
I would like to say, though I cherish all of you a lot. This event is really in particular for the special few, who have been here for more than 10 years! As a foreigner in China, I have grown up with them! a LOT :). I was young with them! and they have and continue to be an inspiration to me, though we don't hang out so much anymore... since becoming parents on our own!... I fully consider them my Chinese family.
We have been through a lot! and I hope we will continue to fight this thing called "GROWING UP" together!

Kids love her, teachers love her! she loves lavender, purple & dark blue! she is PAUULLINNNEEE!
Lily! With Newton since 2007. She is organized and civilized. Always polite and trustworthy. She is the only teacher who remembers to get children's birthday cards at my office. She is a rock star who don't sing and a Monet who don't paint, but she does everything with a smile and heart that makes me want to be her partner teacher again, any day. she likes strawberries and bananas! If she was a boy, her name would be.... Billy! Can you guess who she is? LILLLYYYYYYY.
