What a show! I am so grateful to have been invited by the Room to Read service group to participate in their annual Vidyaloka Joint Concert, where students, through their personal performing talents, raise money to help local children read and improve their literacy skills. I was part of this service event last year, and […]
I Won’t Say I’m In Love – Winter Gala 2024
For this year’s winter gala, I thought I wouldn’t perform, but it turned out differently… In the beginning, I had told myself that I would not have time to take up such a big task and engagement while finishing my Semester 1 summatives, however it all turned out great. I was part of the senior […]
Housing for Habitat – Building the Garden Bed Fence
This first term in service has been slow however, with our time we have been very productive. We started the year by brainstorming some ideas on our necessities for the school, what is the most crucial project at the moment?

Little Shop of Horrors – Production 2023
Ever since little, it has been my dream to be a part of a big musical, and I’ve been so lucky for my dream to come true. This year’s musical was chosen to be Little Shop of Horrors and before this, I had never heard of this piece and knew nothing about it, much less […]
