Ave Maria Convent School recently held a double celebration for their teachers and its retiring Principal Puan Liew Swee Fong which took effect in April this year.

The school hadn’t celebrated teachers day for two years so when the MCO was relaxed it was appropriate to celebrate with a double celebration.

I received an invite to this event and promptly responded as Ave Maria events are always interesting and a wonderful photo opportunity.   

The evening began with Puan Liew Swee Fong walking down the red carpet with her husband Joseph Michael Lee followed by the other VIP’s joining them on the main table.

This was followed by the Ave Maria dance club performing. I was told that their traditional and latin dancers were in attendance that night.

Ave Maria Dance Club were wonderful 

That’s how it went throughout the night. The ‘Swee Fong trio’ sang ‘Fly Me to the Moon’, the Teachers cut their cake and long service awards were presented.
