This year, as with most face-to-face gatherings, our graduation concert has gone virtual. Without needing to explain, you will agree with me that 2020 has been extremely challenging in every sense. When the circuit breaker suddenly dawned upon us, we had to innovate in the conduct of home-based learning for our NurtureStars children. When our students were allowed back to school, new measures had to be implemented to ensure the safety of everyone – students, teachers, staff & parents. There were new protocols for the sanitization of our centres, screening of visitors and the management of those who were sick. Even our teachers’ training had to be conducted via zoom for the first time. Amidst these challenges, we saw the resilience of our people – our teachers, students and even the parents of our students from NurtureStars. They have demonstrated their spirit of unity, perseverance and adaptability to changing and challenging times. And so, the theme of our graduation concert today is appropriately titled “Singapore, United as One”. Our children will present a music & dance featuring Singapore’s past and present - something which their parents & grandparents would be familiar with. You will see a display of “strength”, “courage” and “determination” from our K2 students. There is something special about the 100 K2 students who are graduating today. All of them have been with NurtureStars since they infants or toddlers. They spent their formative years at one of our 6 NurtureStars centres. We are proud of them and extend our best wishes to them as they progress to their next milestone in life. Today’s concert would not have been possible without the hard work of the all the NurtureStars Principals, Teachers and Staff. They have worked tirelessly to maintain a high standard of performance year after year. Please join me in applauding and thanking them for their commitment and dedication. Finally, I want to thank all parents who have entrusted the care of your children to us. It is our joy and privilege to see them grow and develop into healthy and confident individuals. Thank you for your support. Please enjoy the concert and have fun bonding & making memories. Stay healthy, stay safe! Thank you.

    \ `` A Media Release by My Community Embargoed until 7am on 9 May 2019 RECOLLECT THE STORIES OF WORLD WAR II THROUGH THE MILITARY ENCAMPMENT, UNDERGROUND COMPLEXES AND SECRET RESERVOIRS AT MOUNT FABER AND SENTOSA Singapore, 3 May 2019 – Mount Faber and Sentosa are known for their expansive tourist offerings including the cable car, beaches and integrated resorts (IRs), but do you know that the area was home to several key military encampments and underground complexes during World War II? At Mount Faber, a fort comprising a signal station, gun batteries and plotting room was constructed to coordinate Singapore’s various artillery batteries such as Buona Vista, Pasir Panjang, Labrador, Siloso, Serapong, Connaught and Silingsing in the event of an invasion. In Sentosa, the defunct Fort Serapong was equipped with 7-inch guns, 64 pounders and a command centre for close combat battles and guarding the island against amphibious attacks. Both the underground chambers and military complexes at Mount Faber and Fort Serapong would be officially opened to the public for the first time in the upcoming heritage tour, My Mount Faber & Sentosa Heritage Tour. 2 My Mount Faber & Sentosa Heritage Tour explores the secret reservoirs, underground chambers and military complexes constructed by the British to defend Singapore against pirates and military invasion. The guided tour weaves in interesting anecdotes from former residents at Mount Faber and military personnel stationed in Sentosa. The tour also provides an excellent opportunity for Singaporeans to discover the history and heritage of Mount Faber and Sentosa beyond its tourist-centric programmes.
