Attention: Ms Chooi Yeng
Welcome Madam President visit to our Tanglin School
We were elated to be given the opportunity to showcase the talents of our students with mild intellectual disability to President Halimah Yacob via a tour. The tour encompassed four main stations namely Visual Arts: Water Colour, Taking Learning to the Sky, Literacy Alive, and Floristry ‘’Garden in a Bottle: Terrarium’’. At the Visual Arts station, students showcased their painting skills, with Madam President also joining in the activity to complete an art piece together with the students. In Taking Learning to the Sky, students from the Multimedia Club showcased their coding, piloting and drone photography skills by flying a drone through an obstacle course. As part of Literacy Alive, a group of students acted out a short scene from a book that they had written to try and promote it to their classmates. Their skit was warmly received by a round of applause from the audience. Min Hoe, the lead presenter from the Multimedia Club shared that he was happy to be given the chance to lead the presentation on drones and interact with Madam President. The tour ended with a practical session on creating a terrarium with our students. Madam President also kindly signed on one of our completed terrariums, which will be displayed in our school.
Chingay Parade 2023
Sharing the joy of the Lunar New Year, students and staff from APSN Tanglin School took part in the Chingay Parade 2023, themed Embrace Tomorrow, on 3 and 4 February 2023. Since November 2022, coupled with many hours of practice, they worked hard to learn the Samba routine and had supported the trainees from Faith Music Centre to put up a spectacular dance performance. Together with other contingents from Chingay Act 5, Team Tanglin contributed towards one of the most significant events in Singapore’s social-cultural calendar across the different ethnic communities. Although Min Hui and Ellynna were participating in Chingay 2023 for the first time, they have forged friendships with other participants which made their Chingay experiences more memorable. They learnt to overcome many challenges during all the rehearsals and they were appreciative of the little acts of kindness which they cherished. “I had a very fulfilling experience performing together with other dancers. The rain did not dampen our spirit and we were out to do our best. By the way, will I be selected to perform for Chingay 2024?” whispered Min Hui.
Tù a HOPpy New Year 2023!
The rabbit year got off to a great start with the festivities during APSN Tanglin School’s Chinese New Year celebration. It was also the first time the Parents Support Group collaborated with us to pull off our celebration, and they indeed brought the Chinese New Year spirit with an engaging skit and the God of Fortune! The atmosphere buzzed like an energizer bunny, fitting for the year of the rabbit. Let’s look forward tù a HOPpy New Year!

APSN Tanglin School Graduation and Prize Giving Ceremony 2022
Our Secondary 4 students at APSN Tanglin School deserved a grand ceremony for their graduation. Graced by Dr. Anthony Fok, (Vice Chairman of APSN Education Services) as the Guest-Of-Honour, community partners and parents, it was a time to celebrate, to reflect, to honour the students’ accomplishments and to share memories of their 4 years’ educational journey in the school. Our very best wishes to all our graduands, as they move on to becoming young adults. We are so proud of their achievements.
Teacher’s Day Celebration 2022
Celebrating Teacher’s Day at APSN Tanglin School is not just an annual event. It is about affirming the heart work of every educator in the school and their efforts in discovering the true potential of our students and empowering them to be valued members of society. We honour our Teachers’ love and care for their students, and to convey the message that we care for them too. Celebrating Teacher’s Day is also the recognition of the devotion, where teachers assume the responsibility selflessly of educating their students academically, socially as well as morally. Happy Teacher’s Day!
Gear Up! Let’s Get DigiFIT 2022
APSN Tanglin School innovatively incorporated technology to promote fitness and physical activities amongst the students. During the last few weeks of Semester 1, students were engaged in a variety of motion-based fitness activities with the use of interactive technology such as the Ring Fit Adventure on the Nintendo Switch and an IOS application called Active Arcade. Students displayed excellent sportsmanship and demonstrated the values of resilience and respect for one another as they gear up and become digitally fit.
Parents’ Caregivers’ Appreciate Day 2022
It was a day to remember for Tanglin School’s staff, parents, caregivers and students as they spent a Saturday afternoon at the Parents’ Caregivers’ Appreciation Day 2022. The theme for this year is “A Tribe’s Journey: Learning, Playing, Bonding”, and the event indeed fulfilled the theme! Thank you to all parents, caregivers and students who participated in the event and may you continue to learn, play and bond as a family!
aMATHzing Championship 2022
aMATHzing Championship 2022 was held at APSN Tanglin School on 18 May 2022. The event has provided students the opportunities to apply concepts learnt during Numeracy lessons in an authentic and engaging way as well as to generalise Numeracy concepts learnt across different settings. Themed Numeracy Experiential Day 2022: Grand Prix F1 Championship @ TS, students competed in the different activities across their level. This is an authentic learning approach in education that enables students to explore, discuss and meaningfully construct concepts and relationships in contexts that involve real-world situations that are relevant to them.
APSN Tanglin School Multimedia Club 3D Project 2022
The Design Thinking approach empowers students at APSN Tanglin School (TS) to realize their innovative ideas into reality. A combination of divergent and convergent thinking has enabled our students to think out of the box to problem-solve creatively with confidence and resilience. Students from TS Multimedia Club incorporated design thinking with 3D technology to transform empty filament spools into clocks that will be used in all classrooms including the Principal’s office.
