16 November 2018
On 16 November, the school bade farewell to Year 6 seniors and welcomed them as they became alumni of the school. Gracing the event was the guest of honour, Ms Elim Chew who gave a speech “Taking opportunities granted to you”. Our Principal, Mr Burrough also gave a speech about the choices made by us – using the analogy of a crossroad to illustrate this point.
The programme was punctuated by excellent performances from the school’s very own Philharmonic orchestra and the newly formed Contemporary Singers ensemble. Some of our more musical graduates even put up their own shows, such as Ave Maria by Teo Kai Hui and Chelsea Ali, and Unwritten by the contemporary band The Casables.
Year 6s were called up by House and given their certificates as well as commended for works they had done in the school.
As the event drew to an end, the school anthem was played and the volume was astounding. The Year 6s displayed their sorrow and pride for being part of the school this one last time and many left the hall with tear tracks and smiles on their faces.
