EY Sports Day

We celebrated our EY Sports Day on November 25, 2022. Everyone was so happy and excited to join and have fun at our event. The EY Sports Day was held in 2 separate sessions. Pre-K and K1 started at 8:05am and K2 and K3 started at 10:15am. Every student participated in all of our games and activities. Each session had 8 fun and competitive stations where students learned to have a sporting spirit. The parents and teachers showed full support, encouragement and motivation to all our students. It was nice to see all our students trying their best and showing good sportsmanship and enthusiasm on our Sports Day.

Centerstage 12

A massive thank you to everyone who participated and supported our PY Talent Show, Centerstage, in its 12th year! On Thursday, October 20, 2022, the PYP section was able to have its live audience again. Twenty five acts, which included 43 students, performed and vied for the SuperNova award. We were able to see a fantastic variety of talents, including the incredible hosting skills of our 5 MCs. Not only were our amazing students able to showcase their remarkable variety of skills and talents, but our PY teachers and TAs also surprised the community with their astounding dance number.

A special thank you also goes to Ms. Alpha, our PY ICT Teacher, for our digital score sheet, Ms. Allen, our PY Music Teaching Assistant, for her flexibility and constant help, and to our technical team for their excellent support to our program.

Freaky Fun Festival

Finally again in 2022 Parents knew just what to do It was time for our kids to party again I think it rated a solid 10

We decorated the gyms for games and fun We ensured there were activities for everyone Students moved through both gym and hall Having a truly amazing ball

Students laughed and ran and played Throughout this amazing fun-filled day Class parents came to help set the scene For a truly amazing Halloween

It was a great feeling to have us all back On a much more festive Concordian track

To say goodbye to those dryer years With all of us filled with viral fears

To turn the corner toward carefree joys For all of our Concordian girls and boys

Thank you all who lent a hand And improved upon my festive plan Class parents, your efforts mean a lot Without you all I certainly could not Host and plan our fun filled soiree And run the games for the kids to play

The Freaky Fun Festival in 2022 was our first big Concordian event in a long while. It went off without a hitch. The parents, students and teachers all had an excellent time. To all those that helped with this event, I would like to offer a sincere and heartfelt thank you.
