2 Keep up to date with Broadrick ecalendar at: Broadrick Parents ecalendar link By Katie Gonzales Past Vice President/Adviser of Parents School Association Congratulations to the following new PSA committee members Gayatri Khuller Vice President Mindy Jones Secretary Pridhee Gupta Assistant Secretary Michael Francis Treasurer Niranjana Chandrasekhar Assistant Treasurer I urge all of us to please make a commitment to this unique event and help Broadrick lead the way in having as many tables at this Charity event. Please get together and form a table of 10 or come as a couple or individual and we will put you on a Broadrick table! Tickets are $200 per person with funds raised going directly to the EtonHouse Community Fund which is a registered Charity. What is the EtonHouse Community Fund? This is EtonHouse s Corporate Social Responsibility Arm and a Registered Charity approved by the Commissioner of Charities. The Charity was set up with the following objects: a. To advance the cause of education, whether general, professional or technical by providing scholarships, grants, aids and financial assistance to all and in particular the poor, needy and underprivileged. b. To improve the accessibility of affordable, high quality early childhood education and to contribute to enhancing the standards of pre-school curriculum, pedagogy and the teaching profession. c. To advance causes contributing to the learning and holistic development of children and youths, recognising and enhancing their abilities, promoting respect and empowerment, providing multi-lingual and multi-cultural exposures for the young and preparing them for the challenges of global citizenship. d. To promote and foster community spirit, participation and development. e. To aid, assist and give relief in any manner and to any extent to any charitable institution whose object or objects are similar to or comparable with the objects of the Community Fund. Would all amounts spent go towards EtonHouse Community Fund Limited and how would the money be used? All Proceeds will go towards EtonHouse Community Fund Limited in the first instance (donations and ticket sales). EtonHouse International Holdings will fund all the fund-raising expenses and recover actual costs from ECF (capped to 30% of gross proceeds). Fund-raising costs will be capped to 30% of gross proceeds. The statement to donors would be proceeds net of expenses will be channeled to the EtonHouse Community Fund. The pioneer project that we are embarking on would be to work with other community bodies to provide grants to children from needy families into their Child Development Account, which in turn attracts matching donations from the government. These funds can only be used for education and medical needs. I have attached a formal letter of invite to all parents and friends of EtonHouse Broadrick. Let s get into the spirit and enjoy a night out for Charity! Tickets are available at our ever friendly Parent Liaison Office!

Ms Zhao and her entourage visited Yang Jia Wei Primary School in Liao Ning, a province of North-East China this previous Autumn on the 9th September On behalf of EtonHouse, Ms Zhao donated a total of 3,000 SGD (From Mid-Autumn Festival 2014 GET TOGETHER NIGHT) for the purpose of building a Love Library, revamping teaching resources and equipment as well as preparing additional school supplies for the children. Ms Zhao articulated the IB s educational philosophy and mission of developing caring and responsible young people to create a better world. This donation demonstrated how EtonHouse embodied the spirit of IB learner profile through action and service. Rooted in a strong sense of purpose, Ms Zhao also emphasized the value of reading, especially for young children. There are many ways to expand children s world of knowledge and the love of reading is the best of all. A book is a dream that they can hold in their hands where their imagination can soar freely. It is our hope that all the children in Ying Jia Wei Primary School can benefit from this educational aid charity initiative. Last but not least, Ms Zhao placed her hope on children in China; she wished for Yang Jia Wei Primary School to strive and children who graduate from this school can grow up to be contributing members of society who can make a difference to the world. The teachers and versatile children of Ying Jia Wei Primary School showcased their talents through stunning performances to express their heartfelt gratitude. With children s laughing and cheering, sweet memories were created. This educational aid charity initiative had finally drawn to a successful end, but our mission to help people in need will not stop. Let EtonHouse and you continue to pass on our love and care to the community hand in hand! Once again thank you to all parents and staff of EtonHouse Broadrick for the great success of this activity in view of your love and dedication! - 4 -
