Stories

What’s your story?



"You don't need to return me (the money), the kindness that I've given to you, give it to another person who needs it."

These were the words of Ms Wang Juat Yong to her student who was struggling financially.

Today, with 650 days to RI200, we would like to honour our educators, past and present.

The stories in this tribute pay homage to RI educators to celebrate their hard work, sacrifices and dedication. This is part of a series of tributes that will be released over the next two weeks in the lead-up to Teachers’ Day on 3 September.

You’re encouraged to personally reach out to your former teachers to thank them 💐
