Events & Activities

From 3 to 4 January, over 200 new students marked the beginning of their time at ACS (International) with Orientation 2019 – two days that were packed with games and activities that helped these students better understand school life and get to know one another. Following the theme of “The Solar System”, each group was led by their Orientation Group Leaders (OGLs) and Orientation Assistants (OAs), competing against one other in various bonding activities that had them put their teamwork to the test in order to emerge victorious above the other groups.

ACS (International)’s very own Philharmonic Orchestra embarked on their annual trip in a smaller group – Chamber Orchestra – to perform overseas, with France and Amsterdam as their destination from 21 to 29 November.

After a difficult run of hard work, stress and exams, the Year 6s were rewarded with a fantastic prom held at The Carlton Hotel on 17 November. The event was organised by the Student Council who worked together to decorate the hall. Special mention must be given to the three staff members who helped them: Ms Cheryl Seah, Mr Kent Kor and Ms Ivana Choo.

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.

Speech Day, the official last day of school, marks the end of the academic year and recognises the individual and group successes of students as well as teachers.
