Read-A-Thon Book Carnival - 2 July 2010

What a day 2 July was for SACPS - a Book Carnival marked the end of the Read-A-Thon fund raiser of 2010 and it was a day of festivity for the girls.

For both sessions, level activities were carried out for the day and with a slightly longer 45 minutes recess break, the girls were able to enjoy the mini fair put up by the CCEs. The girls truly enjoyed themselves by snapping up foodstuffs such brownies, gingerbread, muffins, chocolate marshmellows & sweets, hair accessories and stationery. The highlight for the day was the special teachers performance of The Big Bad Monster and The Three Not-So-Little Pigs in the hall.

It was a fun-filled day for the girls and we could not have done it without the 2 groups of CCEs - one group who so generously heeded our call for item donations for the event and took the time to drop the items off in school during the school holidays; and the other group are the CCEs who volunteered their precious time and energy to help out during the event. Sincere appreciation from Ms Annie Foo, Mrs Corinna Foo and the Exco members and we look forward to your future support.

APPEAL FOR DONATIONS FOR SCHOOL BUILDING FUND

All of you must have read in the October issue of the Parents' Connection that the school will be undergoing PRIME very soon.
The school will be embarking on a number of fund raising projects in 2008 and will certainly need the help of CCEs in these projects.
The target amount for PRIME is $730,000. (based on 2004’s estimate)
So far the school has raised $ 478,000.
On behalf of the school, we would like to appeal for generous donors who would like to donate to the school’s building fund.
Kindly address your cheques to “SACP Development Fund” and submit it to the school’s general office.
If you have any queries about donations, you can also contact the general office or email to the school's generic email address.
Let us put in effort in helping the school to upgrade it's facilities so as to enhance the girls' education !
