We wish we could take you around our Bishan campus, give you a taste of our lessons and opportunities, show you what student life and CCAs in EJ are like or just share our Eunoia experience with you in person. We can't do so yet but you certainly can see and hear from us online on oheunoia.com!
Mrs Wong-Cheang Mei Heng, our founding principal, will be retiring from the education service at the end of 2021 to begin a new journey. Since her appointment in December 2014, Mrs Wong has led Eunoia Junior College through many phases of its development: from recruiting the college's pioneering staff to guiding the deputy principals and key personnel, from creating the college vision to cultivating beautiful thinking amongst Eunoians, and from rejuvenating the Mount Sinai campus to overseeing the completion of our home in Bishan. Pivotal as she is, Mrs Wong was more than a Principal - an artist, teacher, leader, mentor, colleague and the head of a young Eunoia family. Together with our first five cohorts of students, teaching and non-teaching staff, parents and stakeholders, Mrs Wong has made a blank canvas into a beautiful community. While words alone cannot express our gratitude to Mrs Wong for her seven years of leading Eunoia Junior College, this is our little tribute:
I appreciated how ready you were to entertain wild ideas that supported a culture of creativity and openness, and the sheer variety of names helped us converge on some principles — and having a name that will give us a unique three-letter acronym was one consideration. I remember that when we discussed “Eunoia”, of course we considered the sound and pronunciation of the name.
And because we all agreed that the meaning resonated with us, you shared this perspective — that we are teachers, and so we will teach people to say our name. And we did. I felt that this exemplified leading with the heart of a teacher.
I recall how determined Mrs Wong was in ensuring buy-in from all the pioneer staff. Those of us still around would recall our first Staff Eunite, where we engaged in several activities at Ghim Moh, NUS Guild House and the Hort Park. Mrs Wong was instrumental in shaping the programme and engagement of staff, and what you see here was our collective unpacking of the strategic plan. I also remember how she tried to recreate a caterer’s red bean soup for all of us to enjoy, one of the many ways in which Mrs Wong actively looked out for our welfare!
From the time we occupied one small corner office at MOE HQ (Ghim Moh), it has been a very enriching experience for me to learn from her. I remember the times when Mrs Wong bonded the newly form team of KPs, through many staff welfare activities that she would be the lead and even becoming the trainer for us! Mrs Wong, always being elegant and well composed, brought assurances to us that we were on the right track on uncharted waters, throughout our time together.
Despite only being in EJ for 2 years, I will always remember Mrs Wong as a motherly figure - someone who is very nurturing. She always smiles and checks in on us whenever she sees us along the corridors. That simple "how are you?" really means a lot and shows how much she cares about us. Thank you for being Eunoia's very first Principal and for leading us to embrace the challenges as we embarked on a journey as the first cohort in EJ. We have come a long way under your leadership and we are very grateful for whatever you have done for us. Your lasting legacy will always be remembered and thank you for being an inspiration to us.
Thank you, Mrs Wong, for always holding that strong belief that our college will make history. You have instilled courage in us to dare to be different. You have shaped our college to be one that embraces students' creativity and initiative and which provides so much safe space us to experiment, make mistakes and do even better the next time. Thank you for setting up such a wonderful foundation for our college. I am so excited for the many things you will pursue beyond Eunoia.
The Class of 2021 marked the end of their two-year journey in the college on 22 Oct 2021. All 27 civic groups gathered in their classrooms in line with safe management measures, but the 600-strong cohort still felt the spirit of one Eunoia.
The ceremony gave time for our Eunoians to reflect on their journey, congratulate batchmates who received Commendation Awards for individual subjects and Best Progress, and cheer their peers on the Dean's List (Academic) and Dean's List (Character & Service) in the classroom.
It was also an entertaining affair with an inter-class competition based on Wheel of Fortune and pre-recorded teacher performances, set alight by a rousing dance by Ms Chia Hui Ping, Ms Heon Mak, Ms Tan Fangxi and Mdm Tan Lingmin, a smooth rendition of 'Butter' by the Mathematics Department and scintillating examination tips from the Economics team.
More words of wisdom and encouragement were to follow from the Dean's Address by Mr Ganison Rajamohan and speeches by the respective Valedictorians for the Arts and Science streams, Rachel Grace Ong (20-U1) and Lim Tian Le (20-A2).
The ceremony would not be complete without the presentation of the gold collar pins, pinned onto graduands by the Civics Tutors of each class. While not a moment for euphoria, it was an emotional - and sweet - conclusion to the Class of 2021's journey in Eunoia.
To commemorate our 5th College Day and the opening of our Bishan campus, the college commissioned a video from Advocado Films, a production house founded by Eunoians from our very first cohort. Hear the voices of our Eunoians, alumni, teaching and non-teaching staff and stakeholders, and find out what Eunoia means to them and what they hope Eunoia will grow to be in the future.
The Ministry of Education Special Awards recognise students' diverse achievements in both academic and non-academic spheres, including their contributions to the community. In line with COVID-19 safe management measures, no physical award ceremony was held this year.
The college congratulates our Eunoians and alumni for their outstanding achievements and holistic excellence. Clarice Tan Hui Ling (21-O6) and our alumna Le-anne Ong Li Ying (19-A1) from the Class of 2020 were awarded the Prime Minister's Book Prize.
Asia Tan Xiao Xuan (21-A3) was presented the Lee Kuan Yew Award for All-Round Excellence.
In addition, the college would like to also congratulate Glenda Chong Xing En (21-U2) on receiving the Ee Hoe Hean Book Prize.
The Lee Kuan Yew Award for All-Round Excellence (LKY-ARE) is a national-level award for achievement in education that has been presented to secondary school students since 2005. It recognises well-rounded students who have excelled in both academic and non-academic spheres, and who exemplify the qualities articulated in our desired outcomes of education.
An alumna from Singapore Chinese Girls' School, Asia currently serves as a Deputy President of our 5th Student Council.
The Prime Minister's Book Prize was established in 1974 as an award for bilingual excellence given to students at primary, secondary and pre-university levels.
Clarice is an alumna of CHIJ St Nicholas Girls' School. Le-Anne is our alumna from the Class of 2020.
The Ee Hoe Hean Book Prize recognises individuals who have performed exceedingly well in both the Chinese and English language and demonstrated exemplary character. The award is presented to one student from each of the 11 Special Assistance Plan (SAP) schools every year.
Glenda is an alumna of CHIJ St Nicholas Girls' School.
The college would like to congratulate 79 students from our 2021 JC1 cohort on receiving scholarships from the Ministry of Education (MOE) and other agencies.
Among our fifth cohort of Eunoians, we are proud to have 8 MOE Pre-University Scholars, 32 Bicultural Studies Programme Scholars, 27 MOE Humanities Scholars, 1 National Tamil Language Elective Programme Scholar, 4 MOE Foreign Language Elective Scholars, 2 DSTA Junior College scholars, 3 EJC Community Engagement Scholars, and 2 MOE Special Award winners.
