Below are also 2 media coverage of the event so far:
We have appeared in the PUB the last few days:
Facebook Page of students preparing for SWWD washing machine:
Media presentation by Channelnewsasia this morning. My Green Club teacher Mdm Ho is featured. The washing machine is joint SJAB and Green Club partnership.
One of our SJAB cadet will also be featured in the PUB Corporate video this Saturday.
On behalf of the teachers, I will also like to say a big thank you to everyone, NCOs and cadets for the many hours of GM and post GM hours of hardwork and pride displayed in doing a good job.
No doubt this can be a stressful project, especially the pressure of meeting the expectations of the school, community and PUB. But I am touched by the fact that you persevered on and see this level of pressure as a new learning experience. Keep up the good work and the friendship. It is what Anderson St John Brigade is all about.
Thank you very much and have a great World Water Day. Look forward to joining you in full brigade field uniform as well this Sat.
Regards
Mr Yong
