Founder's Day and Prize-Giving Ceremony

The graduating students commemorated our Founder’s Day and Prize-Giving Ceremony 2022 on 28 April in the school Hall. The theme of this year is “A Thriving AES, Strengthen Roots, Growing Green Shoots”, where the school strengthens roots by remembering our patron saint, St Louis-Marie Grignion de Montfort and nurtures the green shoots through honouring and recognising the achievements and good character of AssumptionKnights. On this day, we also show our appreciation to the staff for their dedicated service.

The programme began with Mass to celebrate the Feast Day of Montfort, educator of youths and founder of charitable schools in France. Our Guest-of-Honour for the prize-giving ceremony was Mr Teo Cheow Tong, a member of the School Management Committee who has strongly and generously supported the school.

The recipient of the Brother Emmanuel Leadership Award was Lee Jun Qi, Jase of Class 4/4. As the President of the Student Council and a leader of his Co-Curricular Activity (CCA), National Cadet Corps (Sea), Jase exhibits outstanding character and demonstrates excellent leadership in propelling both the Council and the CCA unit to the next level.

The Brother Vincent Award of Excellence, awarded to the top all rounded graduand who epitomises the C.H.R.I.S.T. values and Vision of Assumption English School, went to Ng Peng Yu, Owen, from Class 4/2. He excelled in both his character and academic results.

As we congratulate Jase and Owen, we are certain that with guidance and nurturing from the teachers of AES, our students, the green shoots, will continue to grow to become men and women of character and learning, deep rooted in good values, as displayed by our patron saint.

Together, we forge a stronger AES, AssumptionKnight Unite!

Graduation Day

Graduation Day for the Secondary 4 and 5 cohort was held on 23 September 2022. The support from parents was overwhelming as they were able to visit the school after 2 long years and witness their children graduate. One of the highlights of the event was our graduands’ walk-in. They did so with the AssumptionKnight Mascot, the first ever batch to receive the mascot as a graduation gift. The Guest-of-Honour was our AlumKnight Chairperson, Mr Lloyd Tan. He was a part of this Graduation Day ceremony some 11 years ago so it was definitely a nostalgic affair for him. This year’s Valedictorian, Alicia Kwan of class 4/1, gave a sincere and thoughtful speech that echoed the students’ gratitude for the opportunities to learn and grow. Our teachers and graduands also participated in the symbolic Pass-it-On ceremony. This ceremony symbolises the passing on of values and knowledge from the teachers to the graduates, in the hope that students will share the kindness that they have received from their teachers to others around them, paying it forward. With this heartwarming affair, our school hopes to affirm our AssumptionKnights of their hard work as well as development and growth throughout their journey at Assumption English School.
