31 selected Chinese Dancers from P4 to P6 took part in the Singapore Youth Festival 2010 (SYF) on 21st April
2010, at the NUS UCC Hall. They have spent months training for their item 《穿梭时空读古诗》(loosely translated as “Travelling Back to Time for Poetry”) since 2009. Their efforts finally paid off when they were awarded
with Gold Award! These pupils have certainly displayed our school core value – Commitment to Excellence!
