Dear Parents
The FOBISSEA Games have proven to
be a tremendous success. As I mentioned at the Gala Dinner, the Games were
a whole school effort with many parents, students and staff involved in
the organization of them. I have received It
was especially heartening to receive so many positive comments about the
sensible and responsible effort put in by our Secondary Department
students who assisted in various tasks throughout the Games. Similarly, I
received many encouraging comments about the warmth and team spirit of our
own school team. We
had some 33 students competing at the Games. This is the largest team we
have ever fielded. All of our students competed with pride ad commitment;
it was very encouraging to see every one of our students trying so hard.
We won 24 individual medals; the most we have ever won at the Games. But
more importantly, our students gained confidence in their own ability to
participate and made many new friends from other schools. I
would like to thank Ms Johnstone and Ms Dennis for all the hard work they
put into preparing our team. I would also like to thank the school PTA and
Mrs Margot Vekic for way in which they assisted outfitting our team. Next
year’s FOBISSEA Games will be in Penang, and I know that we already have
many students and parents keen to attend these. |
