learned much from it. I even made

and sportsmanship.

Wester, Batch MONTH
2013
Student life at SJIS was indeed exciting as
I had amazing friends which kept me
entertained at all the times and never
made me experience any dull moment.
Getting sweat by playing futsal at SJIS
futsal court before the first lesson of the
day was a brilliant way to stay energised
for the whole day as well. My teachers at
SJIS were very kind and courteous as they
would always be there for the students
whenever needed in providing their
assistance and knowledge.
If I were to give advice to my fellow
students, it would be to have fun and
enjoy the student life as I believe life
should get harder only after school.
I’ve always had a great relationship
with my teachers and faculty
members. Though I was rather
mischievous and didn’t always pay
attention in class, they were always
kind and caring towards me. Even
though it has been almost 10 years , I
still remember them, and it feels great
to know that they remember me too.
Mr Saiful deserves a shout out , and
we were so lucky and thankful to have
him as the best class teacher ever. I
am currently working as a Junior
Engineer at JOHNSON CONTROLS
specialising in HVAC systems, and I
am looking forward for more exciting
adventures and achievements in
future.

in accepting cultural melange in having
friends from different backgrounds.
My younger brother and I registered as SJIS
students at the same time, and he joined as a
lower secondary student. Having a sibling in
the same school could be annoying at times,
but at the same time, it can give a sense of
security as well. Also, it’s a sibling thing to
support each other from distance and yet be
competitive concurrently.
As a homeschooler, enrolling as a student
into St.John’s International School Student life was amazing at SJIS , and I can
certainly gave me a culture shock. As I never forget the memories I made there. From

alumni events allow me to indulge
myself in recollecting wonderful and old
memories which I made with SJIS friends
and teachers. The events also allow me
to appreciate my schooling life more as I
could not reverse the time because I am
a working adult now. School life was
definitely a lot less stressful!
I hope to participate in more alumni

continue networking with my friends
