Message from the Principal

Posted on 10 February 2020

Dear SYAS family

Slightly more than a week has gone by since we started classes in the midst of the Novel Coronavirus situation. Although the timing of this outbreak post-CNY has been unfortunate, we were able to rally the school staff to facilitate a smooth experience for our students in accordance with advisories from the Ministry of Education (MOE) and Ministry of Health (MOH).

We are also raising greater awareness of humanity’s love towards each other by encouraging students and staff at San Yu Adventist to share a love donation, in-kind or otherwise to benefit patients/healthcare workers,etc.  It is a small but powerful gesture -- SYAS cares! 

We have decided to postpone some of our CCA activities and field trips. The following CCAs are affected: Swimming, soccer, badminton, hiking, indoor rock climbing and inline skating. 

Our hearts and minds go out to the victims as well as the heroic people who are risking their lives in combating this virus.  Please take time to listen to this Chinese song 陪你走向希望 on hope & love.

Despite the efforts to combat this virus together, many are spreading fake news and unfounded fears. Please CHECK with the right information sources such as Gov.sg  and follow the government’s directives with regards to intra- and inter-personal health and safety.  TOGETHER, we can overcome this crisis with Confidence, Competence and Compassion.

Parents or guardians with concerns can contact the respective form teachers or email the school at [email protected].
