We, at Presidium, understand that it takes a strong pair of shoulders, a determined mind, and an ambitious vision to support and scaffold our children and help them flourish into Leaders of Tomorrow. As teachers continue to tirelessly train our children, it is imperative to honour them for their devotion to the cause. The event saw teachers walk up the stage to receive their acknowledgments, while their colleagues lauded their dedication, passion and unwavering resolution to make our future brighter. Every shield, every certificate, every handshake, and every smile resonated the feeling of sincere gratitude.
