tet celebration on school campus

Friday 28th January was marked and celebrated in many different ways throughout the IGS family.
This morning, the Primary School enjoyed their ‘virtual’ Tet celebrations with a wide variety of stories and craft activities. They particularly enjoyed listening to Grade 7 who sang a Tet song for the whole Primary school. The celebratory atmosphere closed the day too, thanks to an enjoyable Tet song from the Grade 10 band followed by a very loud and exciting Lion Dance. Thank you to all students for their efforts in making our Tet so special.
While we were celebrating, we also marked the end of our first semester of this academic year.  Mr Schopp summarised the challenging start to the year and noted that we can look forward to a far more positive future. A very special thanks must go to the students who performed classical music during the ceremony.

“This piece I’m going to play is The Earth Prelude by Ludovico Einaundi. Why I chose this piece, firstly because it reflects my playing style, which is simple but beautiful and resonates with my soul.”
