CHIJ 155th Anniversary, Homecoming Event of the Year
14 November 2009, Saturday, 10am to 4pm
At CHIJ Secondary School

 

Brought to you by The CHIJ Alumni Association, CHIJ Secondary & CHIJ Primary

As CHIJ celebrates its 155th year in 2009, this Homecoming Event of the Year is a showcase of the myriad talents of both current and former IJ Girls in all aspects of the Arts.

We are proud that many IJ Girls made good use of their education and God given talents to live a life dedicated to the Arts in a professional capacity. Arts Jam @IJ! gives us the opportunity to gather some of these professionals and bring them ‘Home’ to share their passion and expertise with all of us!
 
Don’t miss the opportunity to meet these professionals*-- our very own True Blue IJ Girls! Among them, Michaela Therese veteran performer, a one-woman band as she sings and accompanies herself emotively on the keys. A familiar face at IJ events, Faridah Ali, is brought back by popular demand to share her beautiful voice with you. Erica Lai, winner of the 24th UOB Art Awards' photography section, and Daphne Huang, dance artiste who stuns audiences with her moving and unusual interpretation of flamenco dances.
Not forgetting our current students who consistently do us proud with their creative energies and dedication, bringing the IJ Schools, Gold and Gold Honour awards at the Singapore Youth Festivals, and at international competitions too. Members of the CHIJ Performing Arts CCA groups will showcase their world class performances in two concerts at Arts Jam @ IJ! Don’t miss the opportunity to support our very own young talents!
Visitors to the Arts Jam@IJ! can experience the Arts too! Art Doodling and a series of workshops* have been planned for their hands-on involvement. These include a flamenco dance workshop by Daphne Huang, jewellery making, balloon sculpting and ice-cream making workshops and a “how to capture….” photography session**by Erica Lai.
 
For those who prefer to be appreciative onlookers, an Art Exhibition featuring pieces done by students in the Visual Arts Programme, a Photography Competition run by students, for students, and conducted tours of the “new” IJ School premises for those who have yet to explore the School grounds, will be part of the activities.
 
Stalls selling art and craft, yummy food and drinks, plus a “must have” cuppa of gourmet coffee will surely complete your enjoyment for the day.
Are you a former or current IJ Girl? A friend? A family member?
Or, you may be just interested in all things Arts related …don’t miss

Nowhere else would you find such wholesome family entertainment, fun activities, the opportunity to meet old friends and teachers, or simply take a guided tour around the School ……for an admission ticket of only $10 (adult) or $5 (student), and all for a good cause too ……………all proceeds collected will go towards The CHIJ Alumni Students Financial Assistance Fund which provides assistance to students in need as well as reward the deserving ones with bursaries and cash awards.
