3 July 2018
To kickstart the third term, the 14th Prefectorial Board collaboratively arranged an orientation programme on 3 July to welcome 60 new students from the different regions such as Vietnam, Indonesia, Singapore and Thailand.
The one-day programme was filled with a vast range of fun activities, ranging from dry to wet games. Throughout the day, the new students bonded with one another as well as with their group leaders through the various games, which included soapy bench, dodge ball and captain’s ball.
On top of the games, we also introduced the school rules and anthem through friendly and fun ways. The highlight, without a doubt, was the mass water game which presented the new students with a chance to pour buckets of water onto their leaders.
The following day, the house captains helped the new students find their way around school and settle into the new environment. I believe the orientation had provided a smooth transition for them to integrate into the school community. Hopefully, they’ll be able to call ACS (International) their second home in no time!
