Hello everyone.
I'm aware that some of you have been wondering when school will start up again, and for the time being it will be postponed until after the play that Mr. Chopin and others are preparing is finished. If anyone has any interest in helping with that, you should find him and speak to him directly.
In any case, you're still welcome to come to the school for your
standard tests, so that I can begin organizing the new class schedules. Starting next week, I'll try to be there for a few hours each day in the early part of the afternoon, so just drop in when it's convenient for you, or let me know in advance if you want to make an arrangement. This offer is also open to anyone who is new here, and just getting settled.
Another matter I wished to address -- or propose, rather -- is the idea of having Open Classes. There are a few subjects, such as Music, Magic, and World Sharing that might be interesting to others who aren't enrolled as students. This may count toward those students who might now consider themselves too old for standard classes, but still wish to participate in the experience. It is also open to those adults who might wish to learn new skills and share their own abilities, or knowledge about their experiences and their own world's history and so forth. Although I wonder if it may be easier just to use the journals as an open forum in some cases...
In any case, these classes would be considered open because it's not so much of a commitment as ordinary classes would be; you're free to attend them when they're in session, and the class times will be made available to you, though they may vary depending on how many are interested. Of course, enrolled students are still encouraged to attend all of them.
So, what do you think? I hope that I've covered everything, though you're welcome to ask questions.

[Following that announcement, she will be in the vicinity of the school for the early part of that afternoon, checking up on the plants outside of it, or handling some of the journal discussions in her office.
Afterward it will be some errands running -- stopping at the flower and item shops respectively -- before heading back home to relax a little. Unless something else comes up, that is.]
