SMSA PRE-UI ADMISSION/ORIENTATION WEEK

Hello SMSAnians...it's been a while since I last updated cos it's been a veryyyyyy long week. A lot has been going on this week especially the SMSA PRE-U1 Admission and Orientation week that took place between 27th Feb - 29th Feb 2012.

Some of the events included the registration process whereby pre-U tutors worked around the clock whilst students assisted as well:

Then came the much anticipated admission for the PreU1s which was hectic and exciting. The orientation started with an assortment of talks in the afternoon including the Careers Talk presented by Yours Truly :)

Next, I also supervised the orientation activities in the afternoon which were a lot of fun as some of you PreU2s may already be thinking has 1 yr really passed by so fast?

Swarm of students!

Students signing up for CCA

Ice-breaking session

The Motivational Talk by ex-PreU2 students:

Su began the talk (love the heels!)

Felicia's tips were great

Zeeyad stayed up late to 'prepare' for the talk

Amir related well with the students

Helpful prefects :)

Finally, the orientation was over and the first lessons began...may the force be with you (and me!)
