Principal's Update
Dear Colleagues,
I hope you had a restful Septenber holidays. It is a sombre start to the term as we grief the passing of our colleague Charles. I'm sure it is weighing heavy in your heart and mind, and if you need to speak to someone, feel free to come by or reach out to other colleagues.
Next week will be a short week with the Teacher's Day and PSLE LC on Monday and Friday respectively. Do take note that morning assembly will be in class for the whole week. We will be engaging the boys taught by Charles on Tuesday after the morning assembly. There will be other boys who will find out through the grapevine and might also be affected, so do look out for them. We will not be making a general announcement to the school for the moment and will assess the situation after Tuesday.
In all our difficulties and challenges, let us continue to choose to be loving, and I leave you with our quote for the week.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered.
Love never fails.
~ St Paul
