details on translation contest

Dear all, 

I would like to inform you of some arrangements for Thursday, 4th December. 

The contest begins at 10:00 in Võru Kreutzwaldi Gümnaasium and please, be on time, considering also the fact that you need to put your clothes away, change your shoes (all available in the basement) and find the computer classrooms. Both computer rooms are located on the second floor (one across the headteacher's room, room nr 225, and the other is in B-korpus). 

The participants will receive a coupon which means that they can have a free school meal in our school canteen after the contest.

If you feel the need for dictionaries, then please, take them along as well, other than that, the students have the whole wonderful WWW to use.

Bests, 

Ruth Talmet
