KCPPS Alumni’s Achievements
We are proud of our Alumni Lieutenant (LTA) Christabel Chai from the Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF). She was featured in the media recently for being the first woman from South-east Asia to graduate from US Air Force Academy (USAFA). Every year, graduating international cadets at the USAFA are honoured at the prestigious institution’s graduation ceremony, where they get the chance to fly their country’s flag. Last month, Christabel was one of them. Leaping onto her chair, she unfurled the Singapore flag and waved it with her arms spread wide, beaming with joy and pride in a photo that has gone viral on Facebook.
We received delightful news from St. Joseph’s Institution (SJI) that our alumni have achieved excellent results at the International Baccalaureate Diploma and GCE ‘O’ Level examinations.
