'Good idea,' I replied. 'We can cover more ground that way.'

Hey freshers!
It is us (again!) Apprehensive about meeting new people? Well, we got you all covered! Introducing *drum roll please!* the Mums and Dads initiative! 🥳 Mums and Dads is aimed to allow you to get to know some of your peers and seniors. 2 seniors will be your so-called parents and a few of your batchmates would be your siblings. This family system would be matched as much as possible based on similar hobbies and interests. The seniors would be organising informal meet-ups for you to bond together. All these and more for grand total of $0! That's right, this initiative is FREE (with no hidden costs or terms and conditions). So what are you waiting for? Sign up through the Freshers' Package or through this link<https://union.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=d91a1cb130f12317830464586&i…> if you have already submitted the Freshers' Package form.

Hey everyone!
Hope you are enjoying your summer vacation thus far. For those who are working from home, I hope that you all are not succumbing to the temptation to lie on your bed for a short nap. For those brave warriors who have fought gallantly but lost against the Zzz-demon, hang in there!
The 38th ExCo has an update regarding the highlight of our winter break - the annual ICSS Ski Trip. Do read on to find out more!
We would also like to extend our gratitude to all those who have signed up for the Mums and Dads Initiative. You all will be hearing from us shortly.
Enjoy your summer break, and don't forget to drink lots of water!

Hello everybody! I hope that everybody is taking a good break now that school has ended. Despite the Covid-19 pandemic, we want to be able to enjoy ourselves and have fun with friends like before, and we aim to allow you to do that with the upcoming ICSS Ski Trip. We have decided that we are going to organise it over Easter, from 27th March to 3rd April 2021, which will give you a good break after Spring term before your exams. We chose to hold it over Easter as we feel that it will be safer and more certain for everybody. Also, because there are some of us who will not be heading back to London for Autumn Term, more people will be available during Easter break too. We are still ironing out the details regarding refunds and other concerns with Covid-19, but the publicity materials and more details, including an interest form, will be out soon. So make a note in your calendar that the upcoming Ski Trip will be held over Easter break instead of the normal Winter break, and I hope to see you there!

Chern Heng
