A warm welcome to all new Grade 11s as you embark on your new journey as an IB student. You will find that it’s a path not only to a highly stimulating intellectual experience but one that also pushes the boundaries of your physical, social and creative growth. For this journey, take along positivism, curiosity, openness, and perseverance. And work hard, for you will gain from your experience only as much as you put into it. Although don’t forget to, once in a while, stop to smell the roses by side of the path, make friends, and treasure all that is important to you.
I would also like to welcome back the Grade 12s. I’m sure you will agree that your first IB year has been a transformative experience. Many of you have found and developed new passions and strengths, made good friends, and struggled with challenges, pain and weaknesses. What is certain is that this year you will experience even more challenges and changes. Many of you made commitments to choices during the November Lasallian Camp. Keep them in mind as your second IB year commences, and with the right spirit, discipline and effort, I’m confident not only will you achieve your academic goals, but also in the process discover and become the person you are to be.
Ora et Labora.
Malcolm Wong
Head of Senior School
