Xingnan PSG Family Day Fun Bowling 17 Nov 2012


17 Nov 2012 marked a very special day for Xingnan PSG. We not only have our usual Annual PSG Family Day Celebration, we were very honored to have our Vice Principal (Admin), Mr Lee Yong Joo to launch Dads for Life Campaign for us.

This year, we organized the PSG Family Day Fun Bowling at The Westwood Bowl, Civil Service Club (Bukit Batok). We invited Non-PSG parents to join us with the objective to encourage them to sign up as PSG members, especially the fathers. There were 72 families turned up with total 298 participants. PSG Chairperson, Mr Chris Ong, mentioned in his Opening Address that a father’s involvement in his child’s learning process will tremendously help the child especially in the area of character building. As fathers and their children bond through playing games, we hope to achieve this outcome.

The event went on smoothly with lots of laughter and cheering. Families also demonstrated their unity by donning themed clothing; some families even prepared slogans on cardboards to cheer and support their members during the game. Parent Volunteers who are not known to the participants moved around quietly to identify and nominate potential prize winners for the 10 category prizes like The Best Dress Family, The Best Cheers Family, The Most Supportive Family, etc. Photographers were busy taking pictures of individual family so that every family could have a copy of their family portrait together with 3 group photos when the school re-opens in Jan 2013. The event ended at 1215pm after Prize Presentation and Lucky Draws, the prizes of the latter being generously contributed by the PSG EXCO & Sub-Committee members.

After the launch of Dads for Life Campaign, we can expect more of father and child activities being organized to encourage more fathers to come onboard and learn together with their children.
