MESSAGE FROM OUR CHAIRMAN 2016 has been another fulfilling year for the Board of Governors and Management of SJI International as we witness the graduation of our Class of 2016 as they embark on the next phase of their journey to become men and women for others. The Board and Management take enormous pride in each and every of our cohort of students who spend their foundational and formative years in SJI International – learning, playing and growing each day.
International is a high-performing, effective and efficient not-for-profit private international school of choice in Singapore. In 2016, we introduced Computer Science to our IB diploma programme and extended our offering in Psychology to include a Higher Level programme. More Service Learning options were added to provide students with rich opportunities for experiential learning through active engagement in community projects.
We seek to provide the best all-round education to each of our students, as they each develop and grow in their own ways to fulfil their potential. This is only possible through the support of our parents who have chosen to send their children to SJI International, the hard work and dedication of our staff, and the continued support of benefactors, donors and volunteers to uphold our Lasallian mission and ethos. On behalf of the Board of Governors and Management of SJI International, I wish to express my deepest appreciation to our staff, supporters and benefactors.
Among the numerous outstanding cocurricular achievements that year – 19 of our students competed in one of the world’s most prestigious academic tournaments, the World Scholar’s Cup. Our students performed very well, winning an impressive number of awards and were placed in the top quintile across almost every category. The school’s crowning achievement came from the Junior Team who placed first overall in the tournament’s Junior Division, out of more than 400 teams at the Tournament of Champions at Yale University.
In this Annual Report, we will present highlights of all that the school has achieved in 2016, from the academic and co-curricular accomplishments of our students, to the many unique characterbuilding projects and charitable causes that the school has been involved in. We will also share with the SJI International community details of the stewardship of the school’s resources by the Board and Management to ensure that SJI
We also celebrated the launch of Elementary School Television (ESTV) which is run by students who create a range of weekly shows using professionalgrade equipment generously donated by the Elementary Parent Support Group. ESTV offers our students the opportunity to showcase their talents and quite possibly take their first steps towards pursuing careers in the multimedia industry.
SJII Annual Report 2016
In 2016, SJI International was granted Council of International Schools (CIS) Membership and will now pursue full CIS Accreditation. We are excited about the accreditation process as the quality and rigour of the review process will enable us to look at avenues to further enhance our programmes and systems through as an external validation by a global leader in the field of school evaluation and accreditation. As we look to the future, our top priority is to ensure that SJI International is adequately resourced to continue to provide the best all-round educational environment for our students. The lease for our Thomson campus will expire in 2022. Based on the authorities’ current plans, relocation to another site appears to be the more likely outcome when our lease ends. The relocation and development of SJI International will present both challenges and opportunities for us. The main challenge is a financial one, with fullcost estimates of a new school projected at up to $200 million, inclusive of land premium. The school will have to build up its financial reserves and embark on a multi-year fund-raising programme to meet the financing challenge. There will be new opportunities too, with the relocation. With a new site, we can plan and design new facilities, and create new programmes and a new impetus
for growth for the school. Once we have more details of the local authorities’ plans and directions for SJI International, we will keep our stakeholders in the SJI International community updated. In closing, as we commemorate the school’s 10th anniversary in 2017, I urge our students, staff and alumni to reflect on our exciting journey since the school’s founding in 2007 and to continue to hold our LaSallian values close to our hearts and strive to inspire others in our communities, wherever we go, to be “people of integrity and people for others”. There is much to look forward to as we embark on the next phase of SJI International’s growth and development. Ora et Labora

SJII Annual Report 2016
ST JOSEPH’S INSTITUTION INTERNATIONAL SJI International is a non-profit co-educational school with a Lasallian Catholic foundation. It offers a holistic, values-driven and international educational experience to a diverse student body of more than 40 nationalities rooted in the context of Singapore. Our community welcomes students, teachers, parents, friends and supporters of all faiths and cultural backgrounds. Established in 2007, SJI International is one of just three schools in Singapore with a licence to educate both Singaporean and international students for the high school. The realisation of the vision of SJI International was a labour of love for a team of alumni of Saint Joseph’s Institution (SJI) who, having benefitted so profoundly from their own education at SJI, one of Singapore’s oldest and most respected schools, then sought a way to offer Singaporean and expatriate children a similar life-changing experience. SJI International opened its High School in 2007 and its Elementary School in 2008. Together they are part of a group of seven Lasallian institutions in Singapore with a history dating back to 1852. The school is overseen by the SJI International Board of Governors, comprising mainly SJI alumni. The school’s patron is fellow Josephian Dr. Tony Tan, President of the Republic of Singapore.
Saint Joseph’s Institution has been notable over the years for its capacity to develop leaders of Singapore society, including members of the current government. Underpinning the remarkable success of SJI and SJI International has been the role played by the De La Salle Christian Brothers. Founded in 1852, the Brotherhood embodies the tradition of St. John Baptist de La Salle, the French priest who, in 1680, started this order of religious Brothers dedicated to bringing education to all, especially ‘the last, the lost and the least’. Its cornerstone values are faith, community and service. Today there are 3,600 Lasallian Brothers and about 90,000 Lasallian teachers working in 80 countries around the world.

SCHOOL ETHOS While welcoming children from all backgrounds and faiths, our ethos, values and principles have a firm foundation in the Catholic faith and the 335-year tradition of the De La Salle Brothers. We are a school where people are important and relationships are valued. Our team of caring and dedicated teachers strive to create an environment where children can grow and develop in a safe and nurturing atmosphere. Our students are empowered to be resilient and critical inquirers. We aim to inspire an enthusiasm and curiosity for learning, as well as encourage the pursuit of excellence and achievement of personal best in all endeavours. We strive to nurture students who:
are sensitive and considerate in their dealings with other people
lack prejudice and are enterprising in establishing relations with people who are different from them
are risk-takers, willing to seek challenging experiences that will facilitate their personal growth
are willing to lead and to accept responsibility in society, particularly in order to serve others
strive to make full use of their talents
SJII Annual Report 2016
LASALLIAN VALUES The Five Core Principles of Lasallian Schools Concern for the Poor, and Social Justice
Quality Education
Faith in the Presence of God
Respect for all Persons
Inclusive Community
We are proud of our Lasallian Catholic heritage and offer many opportunities for Catholic children to explore and deepen their faith. They may participate in weekly catechism classes, daily prayers and weekly Mass in the school chapel. We also offer classes for preparation for the sacraments of First Reconciliation and First Communion. With children from 40 nations at the school, our community includes families from diverse backgrounds. We are a school where the culture, faith and traditions of each child are respected and celebrated. The character education programme, underpinned by the Virtues Project and the SMILES Values, provides the vehicle for character development and, being non-denominational, is appropriate for all students regardless of the culture, faith and traditions of their family.
The religious education programme we offer is intended to deepen a student’s conviction in his or her own belief, as well as to create in our students a deeper understanding and appreciation of people’s differences, religious as well as cultural, in order to make the world a more peaceful place. We stimulate the inter-religious relationship by including the study of Lasallian tradition and heritage within the religious education curriculum.

ELEMENTA SCHOOL

Prep 1 – Grade 6 / Ages 4 – 12
The Elementary School is learning-focused and strongly believes that all children have the capacity to learn and make progress. We believe in the holistic education of the children so that they can grow and develop in a well-rounded way; academically, socially, artistically and through sports. We use a range of digital technology as tools to create stimulating lessons and provide opportunities for collaboration among the children, and between home and school. As a Lasallian Catholic school, we believe that character education lies at the heart of what we do. It is our mission to help the children become people of integrity and people who care for others and the world in which we live. We teach International Mindedness, where our students learn to appreciate and respect the diversity of global cultures. We wish to develop cultural empathy, and help the children be able to appreciate the benefits and challenges of coexistence and interdependence in today’s world.

SERVICE LEARNING Service Learning is central in defining who we are and what we want our students to become. SJI International strives to nurture open-hearted and open-minded students who have a strong sense of purpose, belonging and social responsibility. All students are involved in regular community service activities from Grades 7 to 12. Service projects are supervised by tutors or service leaders and work towards a progressive ladder of service learning. Students move from ‘hand-held’ service projects in Grade 7 to initiating and organising their own service trips abroad for Challenge Week, a key part of the school’s Creativity, Action, Service (CAS) programme for Grade 11s. These student-planned, teacher-mentored projects culminate in a week of independent activity, without teacher supervision, within SE Asia.
Helping out at Rainbow Centre, a safe haven for youths with mental and physical disabilities including severe autism.
In 2016, our students participated in nearly 50 service activities within Singapore, helping in schools for disabled children, homes for the elderly and hospital wards. Students also enrolled in 26 service activities outside Singapore, spanning 8 countries. Through such interactions, our students are exposed to a diverse range of people, cultures, faiths and life experiences. This creates opportunities for personal development and enriched learning, and furthers our mission for students to become ‘people for others’.

CO-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES SJI International offers a myriad of activities outside of the classroom. These activities allow students to pursue their talents and passions, while learning invaluable life skills. From the rhythm of dance and music, to the grit of soccer and rock climbing; the challenge of chess to the World Scholar’s Cup, students have a range of choice, with opportunities for competition at both intra- and inter-school levels. In 2016, students were offered a choice of more than 20 sports, 20 music and dance groups, and nearly 50 other clubs and activities. These CCAs enable students to develop an understanding of themselves and others, as well as build resilience and a desire to learn.

ADDITIONS AND ALTERATIONS (A&A) A&A projects financed by the SJI International Building and Development Fund in 2016 included a new IB Lounge for students and a 4-storey extension to the Khoo Teck Puat Building to accommodate offices of the Central Administration. The key A&A project completed in 2016 was the construction of a Pick-up/Drop-off (PUDO) area along Toa Payoh West. This project was separately paid for out of the school’s operating budget. A new covered pedestrian linkway, including a ramp for wheelchair access, leads from the PUDO area into the SJI International campus. The school’s CCTV system was expanded to cover these new facilities and a new vehicle gantry control system was installed. The well-designed PUDO area has made it more conducive for parents to pick up and drop off their children along Toa Payoh West. This has eased traffic congestion within the campus and along Thomson Road during school peak hours, benefitting the SJI International community as well as the public.
