Debra's death

Some of you might have learnt from the news during the week that a student from Hillgrove Sec, Debra Koh drown in a moonson drain on sunday while trying to retrive her phone. Debra used to be a student in our mentoring program last year, also, half of the student population in our mentoring programme are Debra's ex-classmates. Therefore, we urge you to be discreet and sensitive towards the issue. Mentors might consider against trying to actively counsel the mentees or bring up the issue, unless your mentees approach you. We want to keep everything as normal as possible.

Allocation of rooms for tutors and students [revised version]

please refer to the diagrams below to which classroom you will be located on sat, as well as the names of the mentees you are allocated to. the same diagrams will be pasted on the door of the classrooms on saturday. we seek your cooperation to sit in the format as stated below to minimise clutter and make logistics easier. to the tutors with an asterix (*) to their names [in classroom 3 & 4], please take note that you will need to change classrooms during the break. this means that your name appear at the front in the box, you will need to report to the room first, following which after the break, you'll go to the other room. [eg, for the case of Jocelyn / Yao Yang, Jocelyn will be at Classroom 3 before the break and Yao Yang will be at 4, they will swap after the break] please note that the mentees will remain in their same rooms throughout.

we would appreciate if you can return the classrooms to their original state after the mentoring session is done.
