ACS (Barker Road) celebrated
its 123rd Founder’s Day on 27 February. The Guest-of-Honour for
the day was Mr Sin Boon Ann, M.P. for Tampines G.R.C. and an old
boy of the school. Also present was former Principal, Mr Ng Eng
Chin, who made the special effort to attend the celebrations
despite his busy schedule.
After the reception, Mr Sin,
together with our guests and proud parents, proceeded to the
Auditorium for a Thanksgiving Service, followed by the
presentation of ACS Long Service Awards for members of staff and
academic prizes for students who excelled in 2008. This year, in
addition to the academic prizes, we are very fortunate to also
present the Lee Hah Ing Scholarship Award to the top student of
the GCE ‘N’ Level Examination.
