Student having fun in the month of February

February has been alot of fun for TOC students as there were two events organised for the student.

Firstly, there was the Student Council BBQ Night. This event is specially arranged for the Student Council members as they have been working very hard for the team and also for the welfare of the students, thus they earned the opportunity to party and enjoy themselves.

Food!

About 15 members turned up for the event, along with lecturers and staff who were invited for the "makan-makan" session. The Student Council members chipped in to help with the preparations of the food, barbecuing the food and also in putting together games for all to play.

Everybody gathering around the food.


Musical Chairs!

Besides to usher in the new year and hope for good fortune and successful year ahead, it is also for international students and foreign trainers to get to know the Chinese culture and what it entails.
