Congratulatory Wishes for the 'O' Games!

2008-06-11T23:59:00.004+08:00

Hi everybody,

Here's some nice words (and phrases...and sentences...) from the VIPs! Really makes it worthwhile! =)

Mrs Kelvyna Chan (Principal, ACJC):

I'm glad the event went well. We had our anxious moments but at the end of the day, we didn't compromise our principles and everyone still had a good time! I know it took a lot out of the teachers, not to mention the students. But my hope is that they will take away from it lessons not easily obtained elsewhere and remembered for life.

Mr Joel Mak (ex-Vice Principal (Admin), ACJC):

Mervyn, congratulations. Send my regards to the students. Best wishes to one and all.

Mr Richard Blossom (DayChair, 'O' Games 2008 Organising Committee):

I think it must have been apparent to all the students that the event went very well and the participants all really enjoyed themselves. In particular, I think that kids of all ages enjoyed it.

The Entrepreneurship Council team did a great job and we especially thank Qianhui and Joanne for their hard work and leadership. I hope all of them enjoyed the experience. It was quite a substantial and complex undertaking but it came off very well in the end.

Mr David Ong (Member, 'O' Games 2008 Organising Committee):

I would also like to add my "Thanks" and say in typical AC's fashion "The Best Is Yet To Be" for this event and for all of you.

Mr Robert Ng (Member, 'O' Games 2008 Organising Committee):

My two partners and I are more than satisfied with the result of the team and most important we appreciate your time and dedication to make the event a success.

This is a result that ACJC should be proud of.

Like all hind sight, there are opportunities to improve ourselves and lesson we can take home from the event. We will document it for the benefit of the next team.

Most important we all enjoyed the day and like to share this note from a participant (our customer):
"Elliot ask if he could attend the games next year and went to sleep with his medals."

Many thanks for the partnership.
