In some English-speaking countries, November is a month of gratitude. As a warm way to celebrate Thanksgiving, our boys were encouraged to write their heartfelt messages to people they care and love on to bookmarks during the English lessons.
We hope that this activity does not only serve as a reminder that we should be grateful for the people around us, but also encourage our students to put their thankful thoughts into words and even actions.
About 600 parents and primary school students gathered at the Champagnat Hall on 20 November 2021 to attend the four sessions of our Information Day.
The each session began with a seminar introducing our school and the F1 enrolment procedure, followed by the sharing of our current students and alumni about Marist education. The session was concluded by student live performances as well as recorded performance, such as the one featuring the school wind band. The guests enjoyed the performances and were keen to know more about our school.
We would like to thank all the students, teachers, parents and alumni who gave their best to make this Information Day a resounding success.
