Vanessa Goh Sengkang Green Pri rimary ry – 2014 to 2019 Recipient of the Lee Kuan Yew Award for All-Round Excellence (ARE) 2020 The LKY-ARE is a national-level award for achievement in education. It recognises well-rounded students who have excelled in both academic and non-academic spheres, and who exemplify the qualities articulated in our desired outcomes of education.
Lee Kuan Yew Award for All ll-Round Excellence (L (LKY-ARE) “In school, the principals and teachers always acted as a pillar of support for us. When we stumbled, you supported us and gave us the motivation to persevere. When we erred, you would forgive us and tell us to learn from it. It is because of the unconditional support I received from the teachers that I managed to grow to become a better person. I believe that without the school’s care and guidance, I would not have received this award. ” Vanessa Goh
