The NJC Past-Vs-Present Games on 29 August 2009 (Saturday) was a memorable experience and a success by all accounts. The weather was kind as the rain clouds blew in the opposite direction and the sun was beaming gently as the games were played - basketball, soccer and tennis.

The day would not have been possible if not for the enthusiasm of the participants. There were about 75 participants from the past and present batches– raring to expend their energy that day.

It was a lovely morning and such events only serve to unite the College and Alumni even more.

The event would not have been successfully organized without the dedication and hard work from the following :

• Mr Alvin Chan and Mr Koh Jia Wei   for organizing the event,
• Ms Dorothy Chua – College/ Alumni Liaison Officer, Student Relations Committee, NJC, as the main co-ordinator between the Alumni and the college,
• Ms Kwa Ee Hua and the NJC Alumni Ex-Co members  for their presence and active participation in the event,
• Principal and Staff of NJC &
• All participants

This event will be reported in the next issue of NJConnect and the pictures can be seen under the events tab Past Vs Present Games : 29- Aug 2009

Come join us at the Past vs Present Games at the NJC Sports Complex on Saturday, August 29, 2009 from 8:30 am to 12 noon.

We will play the following games:

a. Soccer
b. Tennis
