Climbathon 2024

This week is Climbathon 2024!

As part of Care for the World week, our community will be challenging ourselves to climb the height of Everest in support of the charity Nepal charity, Pipal Tree. As climate change becomes more prevalent, their valuable work to support the marginalised rural communities in Nepal is increasingly important. See some updates of the work that is ongoing and the progress that is being made through the reforestation and education projects that Pipal Tree continue to manage.

If you are able to sponsor your child's climbing efforts on Wednesday, or make a donation, all proceeds will go directly to help the communities in Nepal.

Watch out for the update to hear how high we climb!!

Donations can be made directly via paynow or handed to home room teachers or tutor teachers.

When communities can lift themselves from poverty and social exclusion, they flourish – despite catastrophic climate change…

Our solutions: schools, skills and strategic reforestation

Instrumental Music Recitals

This is a heads up that our semester Instrumental Music Recitals are coming up. We wanted to provide you with as much notice as possible so that learners can begin discussions with their music teachers and begin practising. The recitals are a formal platform for learners at any age/ability. Playing for an audience encourages young musicians to put extra effort into their practice. It's a motivating force that pushes them to refine their techniques, musicality, and stage presence.

We welcome learners who have lessons in school as well as outside school to consider putting their names forwards, If you have lessons at Nexus please liase with your child's instrumental tutor and they will sign them up; if you have lessons outside of school please email music@nexus.edu.sg

If you have any questions please contact Dr Cassie (Primary) or Ms Clare (Secondary.

The recitals take place:

Secondary - Tuesday 29th October 3.45-5.30pm
