Today, it has grown into a strong community comprising seven units of the ACS family. All seven schools continue to live true to Our Founder’s vision of the ACS philosophy of education which is rooted in “Academic Achievement, Strength of Character and Christian Service”. 2 “ Grow old along with me, The best is yet to be... ” Robert Browning 3 The Anglo-Chinese School is founded on Christian Principles as embodied in the life and teachings of Jesus Christ 4 A Knight’s Prayer ‘God Knows’ And I said to the man who stood at the gate of the year: “Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown.” And he replied: “Go out into the darkness and put your hand into the Hand of God. That shall be to you better than light and safer than a known way.” from the poem ‘God Knows’ by M LOUISE HASKINS 5 6 The School Motto The Best Is Yet To Be! Introduced by the late Mr T W Hinch (Principal, 1929-1947) and incorporated into the crest in 1959. The School Crest The crest was designed in 1930 by the late Dr Yap Pheng Geck who was then a member of the staff. The upper part of the crest shows a creature with a lion head, eagle wings and a dragon body with claws, technically a wyvern, symbolising that the school was founded when Singapore was a British Colony, by the American Methodist Mission, and during the Manchu Dynasty in China. The lower part comprises a panel of blue and another of gold, representing the heavens and the earth. Superimposed on them are the letters ACS in red, signifying life bridging earth and heaven. It is shaped like a shield to uphold knightly virtues such as chivalry, honour, loyalty, valour and manliness. 7 The Best Is Yet To Be Our Vision Every ACSian a young man of character, capability and creativity Our Mission ACS (Primary) believes in providing an all-round education in an environment which seeks to bring out the potential in every pupil to the fullest, and to develop in him a strong moral character, imbued with Christian values and principles to guide and prepare him for life ahead. 8 Our Shared Values integrity, Humility, Obedience, Perseverance, Empathy, Faithfulness, Unity and Loyalty Our Desired Outcome Traits of an ACSian . iHOPEFUL Leader .

Some serve because they are forced by circumstances beyond their control. While slavery might be non-existent in our experience, there are still those who work under conditions close to the slavery of old. There are others who serve because they are paid to; this is a contract between two parties – if I am not paid, I am not going to serve. There is another kind of service in which we are not paid at all, that of being a volunteer. However, one may volunteer for a variety of reasons too. Some serve to obligate the person or organisation to return a favour. When that expected favour is not realised, one stops volunteering. In the midst of all kinds of motivation, the biblical formula is two-fold: love and humility. To serve with love is to place the interest of others before ours; it is paying Bishop Dr Wee Boon Hup wholehearted attention to their needs and meeting them. It includes giving up what is rightfully ours so that the needs of others come first. The Methodist Church in Singapore To serve like that is being sacrificial. It is for this reason that we need to couple it with humility. What might have begun as sacrificial service can end up being a cause for pride: Look at how much I have to give up so that he or she can be in a better position. To serve with humility means that nobody needs to know how much I have given; deep down in my heart, the reason, whatever that may be, is He came simply and sincerely that I want the best for that person. “Not to be served, Such a service of love and humility springs out of a life that has received the but to serve, and to same. Hence, we do it out of a sense of deep gratitude. Anyone who has come to know Jesus will have begun to experience what this give His life as a is. We are told that He came “not to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many” (Mark 10:45). After He had washed His disciples’ feet, ransom for many” He said to them, “You call Me Teacher and Lord, and you are right, for so I am. If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash (Mark 10:45) one another’s feet. For I have given you an example, that you also should do just as I have done to you. Truly, truly, I say to you, a servant is not greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him.” (John 13:13-16). Jesus was asking His disciples not just to copy His acts of service, but also to capture what is at the heart of service: to be like Him in humility. As we deepen our knowledge and love of God, may we also serve as He had served. 12 Message from the Chairman e give thanks this year for 130 years of the Anglo-Chinese School. From Wthe time that Oldham heeded the call to set up a Methodist Mission in Singapore to the present day, generations of ACSians have been blessed and have in turn become blessings to others. While Oldham may have taken the first step to start our journey, countless contributors have, over the years, helped ACS to grow from a class of 13 boys in Amoy Street on 1 March 1886 into a family of six schools in Singapore and one in Jakarta. To all who have been a significant part of our history, from devoted educators to dedicated support staff, generous benefactors, parents and alumni, the Methodist Church and the Ministry of Education, we owe a debt of gratitude. My thanks and congratulations to the pupils and staff of ACS (Primary) for a year filled with Grace, Growth and Learning, as well as one of academic achievements and extra-curricular successes.

MID approached a few countries for help in setting up the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) from scratch. Israel responded favourably and Israeli advisors arrived in Singapore on 30 December 1965.
