Sec.1 Registration Exercise scheduled for 19th December 2008, 8am, CDSS School Hall

Dear CDSS Alumni Greetings from your Alma Mater, CDSS !:)

In December 2007, we had 15 Alumni coming forward to assist us in the above-mentioned registration exercise. We hope that more will come forward this year.

This early reminder is for you to reserve the time slot for us.

The Ministry of Education Sec. 1 Registration Exercise is tentatively scheduled for Friday 19th December 2008, from 8am onwards.

We urge you to come and support us by talking, persuading, convincing the parents that they have made the right choice by coming to CDSS. Their children can be as successful as you too.

Do make time for this day, as your alma mater needs your strong support.

Please help to pass the message to your friends and urge them to support us. For your info, the 1979 batch of Alumni has set up an Alumni Blog. The link is http://cdssnews.blogspot.com/

I am so excited and pleased to hear that the tickets for our school's musical are going out fast since the day I posted on our blog!:) However, for those of you nutties still comtemplating on whether to attend or not attend, PLEASE ATTEND, it is worth seeing the musical, first class acting talent, the interesting story line will captivate you and you all would be amazed!

Nutties who have already purchased tickets for the musical, will do their part in helping raise funds for the school. All of the proceeds will go to the school fund with the purpose of benefiting needy students.

I strongly believe that this is for a worthy cause, therefore, I urge and encourage all CDSS Nutties, to accord their generousity and kindness, in support of our school musical, by way of buying the tickets!:) Bear in mind that the proceeds from the sale of tickets will go towards the school fund for needy students.

The Latest Update - Not many tickets left...so PLEASE HURRY and get tickets for the musical before the tickets run out!!!:)













Thank you very much!
I look forward to seeing you all at the musical:)

CDSS Musical - "Its My Life!"

Dear CDSS Alumni

We are pleased to inform you as part of the CDSS's 40th Anniversary Celebrations, the school is staging a musical called "IT'S MY LIFE" on 15th August 2008 at the Singapore Polytechnic Auditorium.

This is part of our Aesthetics Appreciation Programme to expose our Students to the Performing Arts. The Musical explores conflict, affection, brotherly love and the coming of age of young people. It is about latent decency in the midst of struggle, about not losing touch with the good within us all.

Please note that two shows are available on 15th August 2008 at 3 p.m.(Matinee) and 7.30 p.m. (Gala Night) Tickets are at $10 and $12 per ticket respectively.

We hope that you will come and support us by purchasing the tickets. Tickets can be purchased from the school office, or through me.

Kindly help us to promote to your friends and family members.

Hurry tickets are going fast!!! See you there!:)

Thank You!

Cheers!
