As a new year comes round, everything starts anew. I wish everyone a fresh start in this year. Now that the pandemic subsides, primary and secondary students get to resume normal school life just like the Pre-Covid days. It is gratifying that vibrant learning and multifarious activities can be restored to their original arrangements. The year of 2023 is destined to be a splendid and rewarding year as students can exhibit their full potential by partaking in different activities and competitions and reaching their academic goals with excellent results.
The renovation of our school’s library has also been completed with a new look. The revitalised library has not only increased its collection of books to 30,000 books, but also designated various reading zones and self-study areas to enable students to read and learn comfortably and fruitfully. The school’s library will, for sure, be one of the most popular school facilities in days to come as students can immerse themselves in the joy of reading.
Having mentioned the delight of reading, I would like to recommend two books to all of you, which are surely a good read to acquire and understand the authors’ wisdom and insight.
