Service at St . Theresa ’ s Home St . Vincent De Paul once said : “ Hands that Help , are Holier , than the Lips that pray ”.
This year SSVP has once again exemplified this virtue by becoming men for others serving the last , the lost and the least by serving the elderly at our adopted home , St . Theresa ’ s Home since 2010 . One of our core activity throughout this year had been the regular visits to our adopted home , St Theresa ’ s Home . Our members have been buddies to the residents in the home , spending time conversing , playing games and often providing them a listening ear .
Charity Fundraising Additionally , SSVP has remained dedicated to raising funds for St Theresa ’ s Home through the Chinese New Year Ang Pao collection . This has helped to foster the spirit of compassion among our Josephians who have readily shared the good fortune during the festive period . As a result of the generous donations from students and teachers , we were able to raise a total of $ 4792.10 .

Easter Concert at St . Theresa ’ s Home One of the highlights of this year was the Easter concert performance at St . Theresa ’ s Home . Various aesthetics groups volunteered to bring festive cheer to the elderly at the home . The SJI Vocal Ensemble , Guitar Ensemble and the Malay , Chinese and the Indian cultural societies were among the groups who displayed their artistic talents to spread the cheer and delight the elderly in the home . Our members worked dutifully behind the scenes helping the caregivers distribute food and drinks .
Catholic Camp 2014 SSVP teamed up with other Catholic Societies , the Legion of Mary and the Young Christian Society to organise the annual Catholic Camp to build the fraternity in the school community this March . The camp aimed to build a vibrant Catholic Community in accordance with our school values of Faith , Service and Community . Brother Arian from SJI International was invited as a guest speaker to lead discussion on the Catholic faith . The camp activities also helped to induct our fellow Secondary One members into the larger Catholic community in school and help strengthen bonds amongst existing members .
