*Note:-
Kindly note that we have received a notification from the UNSW dated 16 October 2009 informing the following:

"Following further analysis of question 32 in Paper B (Standard 4) we have concluded that the language used in this question was ambiguous and open to different interpretations, resulting in two different solutions. For this reason we have
determined that both Option B (26) and Option D (46) are appropriate responses."

Following the above, students' scores have been adjusted accordingly.

Fundraising Charity Concert for Pusat Penjagaan Kanak-kanak Cacat Taman Megah

How often is it that when we hear of the word "charity" we think of the poor and the unfortunate around us who are deprived of the basic needs in life? I suppose for most of us, our hearts pour out especially to the abandoned children who have the potential to grow and develop into a unique individual and yet are not given the chance of life. Those who have been involved in fundraising events and are volunteers to homes and shelters know that whatever little time that we have sacrificed for them, bring them immense joy and in return, we feel a sense of fulfillment and for some, a reason of existense.

Enclosed is an e-flyer for a charity concert organised by a group of artistes, consisting of local and international Chinese actors/singers with the main purpose of raising funds for Pusat Penjagaan Kanak-kanak Cacat Taman Megah. The centre currently houses 138 disabled and underprivileged children and has plans to build a bigger home with facilities to accomodate the rising number of children each year. It is a non-profit organisation and relies solely on donation by the public. If you would like to support this cause, you may purchase the concert tickets which the details are enclosed in this e-flyer. The centre also accepts cash donation and food supplies. I hope that you would share this email with your family members and friends. Together, let's create a better place for these children to live in.

For those who are interested to know more about this centre, you may contact the Admin Manager, Mr Baskar at (03) 7806 1143/ 4261 or visit the website at http://www.ppkkctm.org/
