SFX Junior Ambassadors Inauguration Ceremony 2018-2019

Each year, students with outstanding academic performances (Top 15 students of the junior forms in the first term) are honoured as the SFX Junior Ambassadors of that year. This year, parents of these students were invited to the Inauguration Ceremony to share the joy and honor with their sons on 22nd March 2019. A Letter of Acknowledgement was sent to the respective primary schools for having laid a solid foundation for these students’ academic success. The ambassadors would then pay a visit to their Alma Mater to extend their heartfelt gratitude to their primary school teachers who labored to foster the students’ development. Through this practice, students’ effort in their school work was recognized and it is hoped that they will learn to appreciate the effort of all those who have contributed to their successes.

F.3 Parent’s Gathering 2019

The F.3 Parents’ Gathering was held on Saturday, 16th March, 2019. Around 140 parents attended the function.

The gathering opened up with a briefing session conducted by our Vice-Principal on the different NSS elective subjects offered in our school and the placement method. We also took this opportunity to introduce our newly proposed elective, Japanese Language as a Category C subject. Our Career and Guidance Mistress then informed the parents about the admission requirements of the different local universities. Afterwards, a sharing session was conducted by our School-based Social Worker and Counselling Master. They shared some tips on what parents could do to help their sons choose the right electives. Most of the parents found the event informative and helpful.
