I AM I ! :)

Hello everybody ! Sorry for all the delay in updating the blog.

Well anyway, we had a big and interesting visit from Pasir Ris Secondary School on the 11th of June. The students brought along a huge level of excitement, although they didn't really open up for any queries or questions. Haha. But they were an interesting bunch.

Together with Amalina and Ms Natasha, the three of us were made to 'entertain' our groups of students in the specialist labs. They went through a series of websites like the TP IMI website, yeap, this exact proud blog of ours ! and plus the iMinds website as well as a couple of games produced by our very own students in IMI.

We are very sure they left with the 'constant echoing' of the name IMI aka I AM I ! Haha. Had a good time indeed :)

A treat of photos for you !

The 3 Star - lings !! :)

Botaks!

Clarence and Kim Choon came by to visit and "show off" their new hairdo (after much persuasion of course). Yo, IND alumni, if you have photos to share, esp the botaks one, do email us ok :)

Pei Tong Primary School Visit!

Before I start today's post, I would like to announce that yours truly, Zul, along with three other IMI juniors, Valenisha, Kok Peng and Tian Seng, have emerged successful and is now a part of the main committee of IITSC! :D

Well, sorry for the topic drift. Today, primary six students from Pei Tong Primary School, (if you don't know where it is, neither did I, it's somewhere in Clementi) gave IMI a visit and boy, were they a fiesty group!

Assisted with the October Intake Freshmen, Edward and Eendra. They met the kids way earlier than I did so from the looks of it, Double E did a great job! Kudos, boys!

Well, the kids were a loud bunch but one can't help but notice their shyness and unwillingness to open up. What did the army of IMI lecturers to do?

Call the most gregarious IMI student and demand that he make a fool of himself.

ME.

So finally got the kids to participate by showing them indeed it was fun. Most of them answered, "oh I know this one! I play at shopping mall before!" proving that what we do at IMI touch lives. AHHH.

Getting the kids to play together was fun. It was amazing how even though they're young, they manage to spread work. It was evident that teamwork was there.

Whack-a-mole, anyone?

Love,
Zul

Sec. School Visits

Finally, exams is over... i mean for the Sec school students ... so we had to host a few talks and workshops for the students, showcasing IMI's students' work.

Say hi to Pei Tong Sec :)

Say hi to St.Hilda's Sec :)

Graduation 2009

Graduation 2009



The '06 cohort of IND students (currently known as IMI) graduated today. IIT school was honoured to have Ms Grace Fu, Singapore's Senior Minister of State for Ministry of National Development, witness the event and gave a meaningful speech to the graduands. Amongst them are our regular bloggers – Alastair, Raymond, Alvin, Shellen, Wanqi.



To make the event more meaningful, Kevin Lee’s ambition of completing the course has finally come to fruition today. Kevin was featured in The New Paper on 17 May 2009. Kevin suffers from Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (rapid muscle degeneration) since the age of 10; he would attend lessons on a wheelchair and is usually accompanied by his mom. His condition deteriorated over the years but his sheer determination and perseverance only serves to prove one point: Nothing is impossible. Congratulations!!!

The New Paper : 17 MAY 2009

From all the IND/IMI lecturers to the '06 Cohort: Best Wishes to all of you!
