It was quite a challenge but the Organising Committee did a
most commendable job in rounding up 150 schoolmates including 13 teachers
for the Class of 68/70’s 40th Anniversary Celebrations held at
Traders Hotel on 15 February.
The occasion was indeed a joyous one as schoolmates and teachers
caught up with each other. Nostalgia crept in when guest speakers
Iris Fang and Cheo Chai Hong recalled the good old days in school;
Alex Chan’s slide show of photos and memorabilia from way back also
took everyone down memory lane.
When it came to entertainment, there was no shortage of in-house
talents as many stepped up on stage to perform; even some of the
teachers joined in! The hat was also passed around during dinner and
a total of $8,500 collected was donated to the ACS OBA Teachers’
Welfare Fund.
