“Art and design connect our community — they make learning visible,
meaningful, and joyful.”
Collaborating to Create Meaningful Learning Experiences
Collaborating to Create Meaningful Learning Experiences
I believe that impactful education happens when teachers work together to connect disciplines, ideas, and people. Over the years, I have collaborated with departments across my school to design creative projects that integrate Art, Design Thinking, and Maker Education — enriching students’ learning while strengthening school culture.

Design Contributions
Design Contributions
With my background in digital graphic design, I have contributed to many school and cluster events as a visual designer — creating:
Event banners, posters, and digital backdrops.
Programme booklets, certificates, and invitations.
Stage designs and visual identities for school celebrations and exhibitions.
💡 Design Philosophy:
I approach visual communication as a teaching tool — each design not only informs but also inspires.

In 2009, a collection of recipes contributed by staff, students and parents was compiled into a recipe book.

In conjunction with the school's 70th anniversary in 2016, I designed a mural wall with the school's motto "With Heart & Mind“ (see picture below). Students' artwork, based on the school values, were embedded on the word "HEART". With the help of some parent volunteers, the primary 1 students imprinted their palm prints on the wall. This wall serves as a daily reminder, to the students, of the school values and to serve with their hearts & minds.
