~ TEATEATEATEA for your SOUL for your SOUL for your SOUL for your SOUL

Message from the Editor The year 2011 ended with a flurry of events for BPPS. The Staff got together to plan, play and party.

On School Planning day, the teachers were grouped according to the levels they would be teaching in 2012, and they discussed what the 21st Century School will be like. What are the competencies that the 21st Century learners (pupils and teachers) need to acquire?

Are we cute or what? 4

The Staff engaged in Staff Bonding activities that brought out the tenacity and resilience of the staff.

We had a game of handball when we saw the teachers unleash their strong competitiveness urge, all friendly, of course, something we rarely see on normal days.

Next, we also had a mass workout where the staff put their best feet forward and reach for the sky.

It was really a fantastic feeling for all!

“Next year, I’ll play too and I’ll get the gold medal, hee hee” quipped Mdm Ng on hearing hat nobody dared snatch the ball from Mrs Koh’s hands during the Handball

game.

Mdm Ng with the Pharoah, the Puteri, the

Thai Princess and the Scottish lad.

The night was a huge success and it was all

due to the enthusiastic and sporting spirit

of the staff. It was a hilarious sight to

behold when the Pharoah had to seduce

the cool Cleopatra. The Trojan was out to

get the Cowboy, no matter what. And to end

it all the Red Indian and the Scottish Lad

collapsed out of sheer exhaustion.

With such excitement and enjoyment, we

can only look forward eagerly to next year.

Let’s work hard and play even harder in 2012!

Here are some of the exciting moments caught on camera. Enjoy!

The Annual Dinner was held at the Concorde Hotel on 24 November. The

theme was “Cultural Nite”. Boy! It was not just cultural, it was historical

too. The Roman Trojan was there, Cleopatra was there and she met up with

the Pharaoh. Wherefore art thou, Antony? The Red Indians came too, and

the cowboys added to the action. There were a few Nonyas and many Ranis.

Partying Together

Last but not least, we are cute or what?
