A school notice is unclear. Ask a teacher what it concerns, when to submit the form and what to bring.
The idea
Use このお知らせについて to identify the notice. いつまでに asks for a deadline; 金曜日までに means by Friday. 持っていきます asks about taking something to the event, while 持ってきてください asks the listener to bring it.
Examples
- すみません、このお知らせについて教えてください。Excuse me, please tell me about this notice.
- これは何のお知らせですか。What is this notice about?
- 来週の学校行事のお知らせです。It is a notice about next week’s school event.
- 申込書はいつまでに出しますか。By when should I submit the application form?
- 金曜日までに先生に出してください。Please give it to the teacher by Friday.
- 当日は何を持っていきますか。What should I bring on the day?
- お弁当と水を持ってきてください。Please bring a packed lunch and water.
- 金曜日までですね。ありがとうございます。By Friday, right? Thank you.

Watch out
までに marks a deadline, not a continuous period. Repeat the date with ですね to check your understanding.
