Dear Valtortans,
As we gather today to welcome the new academic year, I am reminded of the powerful words from the Bible: “Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light for my path.” (Psalm 119:105). This verse beautifully aligns with our school theme for 2025/26: "To be hardworking in our pursuit of the truth."
This scripture encourages us to seek God's wisdom in our daily lives. His words serve as a guiding light, illuminating our paths and ensuring that every step we take aligns with His will. As we embark on this journey together, let us remember to turn to prayer in moments of uncertainty, frustration, and despair. We should ask God to guide us, grant us clarity, and help us navigate the challenges ahead.
While hard work and perseverance are essential for our growth, it is only through God's wisdom that we can truly uncover the truth and righteousness we seek. This year, I urge each of you to commit yourselves to being diligent in your studies, compassionate in your interactions, and responsible in your choices. Every act of kindness and thoughtful decision is an opportunity to reflect His love and grace.
As we embrace the opportunities this year presents and strive for excellence in all that we do, may we remember to lean on God’s guidance. Let His light shine upon us, leading us toward knowledge, understanding, and integrity. In every decision we face and in every challenge we encounter, let us trust that only His wisdom will illuminate our paths, guiding us toward a brighter and more purposeful future.
Let us embark on a year filled with purpose, growth, and the pursuit of truth through God's wisdom. May we uplift each other in our endeavors and strive to be beacons of light in our school community.
I wish you all a flourishing year ahead, filled with opportunities to learn, grow, and succeed in our loving family of Valtortans.
Warm regards,
Ms Wong
