VIRTUAL SCHOOLS REUNION IN VIRTUAL
SINGAPORE
SATURDAY 25TH APRIL
LOCATION – YOUR FAVOURITE ARMCHAIR
While so many of us are on
‘lockdown’ we thought we’d invite you to a Reunion with a Difference.
Last month after we cancelled the
renowned Chandos Singapore Schools Reunion we thought what a shame. So, we
launched an impromptu reunion in the Ex Far East Brit Brats group which scores
of you ‘attended’. Probably far more than we could ever fit into the Chandos!
Here is your Invitation to the First
Ex Far East Brit Brats Virtual Reunion to be held in Virtual Singapore on
Saturday 25th April 2020 from 10am to any time you like from the comfort of
your own armchair.
(If you’re not already a group member
now is the time to join the group. Simply - Apply
to Join – Answer in FULL the three or four questions and, if you meet the
criteria you’ll be admitted. Any that don’t will be
ignored.)
All members are invited including
those who lived elsewhere other than Singapore. You can join in by sharing
photos of yourselves and friends enjoying Singapore either back then or more
recently or by commenting on someone’s photo or memory or by ‘liking etc.’ what
they have to say.
We know it’s not easy but please try
to stay on topic and within group rules. If you want a separate conversation
you can always arrange for that ‘out of school’ or via a private message.
If you’ve been unable to make a
Reunion in the past let this be a taster
of what to expect post virus.
So, get sorting your favourite
photos of then and/or now and a brief description, e.g. when? where? who? (tagged
faces are good). Stand by to be astounded by the number of shared memories and
ghosts from your past.
As usual we’ll be taking Afternoon
Tea at The Raffles Hotel and a Singapore Sling in The Long Bar. (Dress code
optional just this once). Then a trip to Chinatown for some makan.
If you’re planning on joining us
just tick the box.
I am sharing this with St John’s
School. If you’re a member (or admin) of another Far East SCHOOL group please
feel free to share it with them. (e.g. Seletar, Changi, Bourne, Kinloss, Hong Kong, Malaysia etc.)
And if this reunion is a success
and the virus continues we’ll be hosting subsequent reunions on the last
Saturday of each month until we get the all clear.
As we have the whole world to
choose from we’ll be having somewhere else to visit. Hong Kong –
Penang/Malaysia, Australia/New Zealand/USA/ as well as other reunion locations
wherever they’re held.
If you like the idea
join us. If you just want to drop in just drop in. And if you want your
old pals to join you, let them know.
And if the Antipodeans want to start
before us please do.
If you haven’t already registered
for reunion updates or member lists please drop a line to Lynne Copping with a
brief resume on why you might be included at singaporeschool.reunion@gmail.com
See you soon (virtually)?
