How could a birthday party be complete without a birthday song and a cake? There was no need to worry since we had prepared an enormous cake for not only SHSID, but for 25 students and 1 teacher whose birthdays were in December as well. While the cake was shared on the stage, the Happy Birthday song was sung in Chinese, French, Japanese, Korean, German and English by students and teachers which was the climax of the ceremony.
After that, the celebration continued beyond the auditorium. Students went back to classrooms and started working on another celebration project, ‘What I like about SHSID……’ Painting with vivid imagination, everyone presented a unique birthday present to our beloved school.
