The Important Link

Hi Guys,

It has been quite awhile since I last updated yah..

Thus far, there is a lukewarm response for the committee, though I am pleased to know that the news is spreading that there is going to be a reunion.

I believe that the best advertisement is through the word of mouth, therefore the important link in this event, is not me, but the class agents. Why do I say so? This group of pple will be the ones further sharing and disseminating important information to their classmates. Details like event day when ah, theme and dress code wat ah, coupons purchase where to get from ah, yaddah, yaddah. So if you're keen to be one of the 8 class agents, do let me noe =)

Thank you to those who have sent me emails, facebook messages of enouragement and messages of curiousity with regards to the event details.

So continue to share this news around that the reunion will be held this year and if you wanna nominate someone to be a class agent, do feel free to do so by sending me an email at acsbr98@gmail.com

Cheers,

Jinyuan

You guys can send the s0ft copies after scanning them to our dedicated email address of acsbr98@gmail.com.

ACS Reunion

Dear Fellow ACSians,

It has been 10 years since we have graduated from ACS Barker in 1998. During the past 10 years, we have gone on our own ways. Some have still managed to stay in close contact with their classmates, while others have formed small cliques with peers from other classes. Regardless of who we are hanging out with, I believe everyone one of you is just as keenly interested as I am to know what the rest of the batch is up to at this stage of our lives! And I am sure all of you will still chuckle at some of the antics we used to partake in when reminiscence on our good old school days in the old campus of ACS (Barker Road).

I dug up from my drawer a draft I had written for a speech delivered during our graduating year and I will like to share a couple of paragraphs that I felt were meaningful to me.

“ACS means a new chapter in my life. It is more than a building to me; it is a second home. An institution that prepares all of us for the future ahead. It helps us to meet the high demands of a fast changing society and to serve others better eventually.

The famed ACS Spirit that exists in all of us is a type of manifested loyalty that no other student from other schools will ever experience nor comprehend. This spirit is evident during sports events like the National Badminton Finals where we cheered our hearts out for the players. This spirit can only be found in this family and I am proud to be part of it.”

Ten years ago, I had delivered this speech in the chapel and ten years on, I am still living on this ACS Spirit, so much so that it drives me to spearhead this reunion.

This is an open invitation to all teachers and students of batch 98, to attend a night of joyous celebration and recollection of the many fond memories we had. Come and join us for a night you will not soon forget! Do contact your designated class agents for more details on the event and ticketing matters.

See you very soon my friend!





Cheers,


Christopher Han Jinyuan
Executive Chairperson
ACS Barker Batch of 98 10th Year Reunion

It will sure be a good idea to have a reunion where we can reminiscence on our good old school days eh..from the gang rapes where we will pull off underwears n ripping the crocodile waist band in the process to talking about the SCGS girls when taking the 171 to newton mrt. But definitely the list does not stop there..bet there are many many stories to bring up to laugh at..

Have you wondered?

It has been 10 years since we have graduated from ACS Barker in 1998. During the past 10 years, we have gone on our own ways. Some have still managed to stay in close contacts with their classmates, while others have formed small cliques with peers from other classes. Regardless of who we are hanging out with, be it with our classmates or peers from other classes, I bet you are just as keenly interested as I am to know what each of us are up to at this stage of our lives! And I am sure all of you will still chuckle to some of the antics we used to partake in when we reminiscence our good old school days.

What if there was to be a batch of 98 reunion?...hmm...

The Ties That Bind

It is important for each of us to maintain a strong bond to our alma mater, be aware of its traditions and to be kept abreast of its latest developments. This is one sure way of keeping our school spirit alive and burning bright, for the past, present and future batches of ACSians.

As we look forward to the future, let us pause once awhile to acknowledge our past. It will be through these reflections that we reconnect with our past, so that a sense of home and belonging can be accorded to a place where we spent our fond formative years shaping into who we are today.

The Best Is Yet To Be!

Welcome Everyone!
