We started our year with the following events:

Our invited speaker, Ms Jac Ang shared on the topic “Parents Involvement in Special Education is Crucial”. She shared about her journey with her son and encouraged parents to work alongside their children especially from young as they would eventually grow up and reach adulthood.

Wings’ staff got together and ushered the Year of the Rooster with a yee sang toss at the YAP café. It was a great time of fellowship and bonding with each other as we celebrated the festive occasion.

YAP CNY visitations on 10/02/17

Our YAP trainees and their trainers had a special day out for a Chinese New Year visitation to each trainees’ homes. They enjoyed eating the snacks and cookies prepared in each of their homes as well as collecting ang pows. It was certainly a fun time with their friends, family and trainers.

Coffee Session on 10/03/17

Our guest for the event is our vice-chairman, Mr Lee Chee Gaip. He shared about the importance of parents support group where they are able to gather together to share information, to support & encourage each other and to advocate for their children. He also encouraged parents who attended the session to startup their own support group and to walk alongside each other. It was also a casual time for parents as they get to know one another and bonded over dinner.

To-date, we have 31 students in EIP, 13 students in SAP and 9 trainees in YAP – supported by a staff of 6 EIP/SAP teachers, 5 trainers, 1 head coach and 1 acting administrator.
