Swiss Cottage Secondary School Alumni Association

The Swiss Cottage Secondary School Alumuni Association bought lunch boxes and abalone sets for staff on 21 March 2022 which was also the first day of Term 2. This was a small token of appreciation for their dedicated and hard work during these challenging times. Present at the event were Alumni Association’s President Foo Tian Ong, Vice President William Loh, Management Commitee members Mariati Selamat and Van Nguyen, and an alumunus Elgin Neo. Van also presented passport covers to the staff.

Swiss Past VS Present 2018 was held on 10th March 2018. Students both past and present came back to their second home and compete with each other for some good old sports fun. This year, we had…

– Badminton

– Basketball

– Floorball (Girls)

– Floorball (Boys)

– Soccer

All 5 games had great response this year, with even the students who just graduated in 2017 coming back home to play a sport with their juniors. It was indeed heart-warming for us Alumni to see that many of the seniors came back to spend a day with their juniors!

Check out our social media links below and keep up with our Alumni events. If you are an Ex-Swiss Student, feel free to join us next year, for Swiss Past Vs Present 2019!

Dear Members

I am pleased to give this message as President of the Swiss Cottage Secondary School Alumni Association (“SAA”)

I completed my “A” levels at Swiss Cottage Secondary School (“SCSS”) in 1975.  My classmates and I received a first class education at SCSS and are forever grateful for the foundations that the school provided us for the future.

Many of us who were fortunate and privileged to have benefited from a SCSS education felt that we owe it to future generations of SCSS students to support and contribute to our alma mater.  Indeed, we hope the SCSS spirit will endure and thrive further.

It was in the spirit of giving back to our alma mater that a group of former students and I got together to register the SAA with the Registrar of Societies in December 2013.  I am happy yet humbled to have been serving as the President of the SAA since then.   My committee members and I have been  organizing and participating in school activities.  These include giving career talks to our graduating students, running the “Past vs Present” Games, celebrating Teachers’ Day, and holding a series of get togethers (attended by former teachers and students).

My committee members and I will endeavor to find ways to make the SAA more useful and relevant to our members and other stakeholders.  To achieve this, we hope to reach out to as many members of the SCSS community as possible – to seek your views and feedback.

I urge former students and staff to join us to help chart SAA’s direction.  There are many opportunities to serve and participate and we will use our website to share relevant information.  My committee members and I look forward to working with more members of the SCSS family.

 

Foo Tian Ong

President

Swiss Cottage Secondary School Alumni Association

A very good day to all.

In recent years, the Swiss Cottage Secondary School Alumni Association has evolved from just a club, to an association supporting Swiss Cottage Secondary School. We now have our own official domain, which we will be using to provide updates on any events organised by the Alumni together with Swiss Cottage Secondary School.

The site is currently a work in progress and we aim to launch the website officially some time early next year. Stay tuned for updates!
