Hey, have you been reading your newspaper? coz if you look in the newspaper(the newpaper, not the Straits Times, or The business times, or the life! Section) 2nd Sep, you will see a write-up of our school and other skls.
"HIGHEST AMOUNT RAISED
Said the 11-year-old: 'You see him in the papers. And there he is standing in front of me.' President Nathan was at the school for an hour.
He also visited Methodist Girls' School, which took the spirit of charity to a higher level, raising $37,473.43 - the highest amount raised by a single school so far.
The amount, raised through donations from parents and fund-raising projects, is still growing.
Said vice-principal Yap Tsui Lan on her girls' spirit of giving: 'One of our school values is love and we try to teach the girls that one of the ways to express values is to help the less fortunate. And we can do it in a creative way.'
The girls and their teachers knew how to have fun as well.
Each class had a theme to come in so there was a class of geeks, a class of 'men in black', even a class of Hawaiian girls.
Look out for our 4-page Be Yourself Day special on Monday. "
is what they have written about us. There are also other schools that the president visited. Such as, ISS International (Middle) school and International (Middle) School.
