the talented cast of

St Joseph’s Private School, Kuching

Issue 2015/8 (August) 2/17


The school proudly and successfully presented its first-ever production after four years of existence (2012-2015). It is a play based on the modern script of William Shakespeare’s The Tempest as edited by John Crowther in 2003. The play, full of wit, humour and romance, is mostly student initiated and student led. The teachers guided them when needed. The tickets for both nights were sold out. Tickets were priced at RM40 and RM20. A total of 1500 tickets were sold. The school would like to thank parents who bore with patience and generosity the heavy schedule of their children who were the cast and crew.

The Tempest Prayer

written by Brother Stanley Goh, SJ, prayed by cast and crew at every practice. Into thy hands, O God we place, Our work and will, before thy grace. With our toil almost complete, And thy love in us replete, Fill, we pray, our sails with peace, And from all fears give us release. For thy glory our labours be, so by your mercy set us free.

Zachary Aw Zheng Quan (F4 Sc Theta) as Prospero

Cor Amoris Charity Club sold T-shirts to raise funds for the victims of the earthquake in Nepal. There were several designs to choose from.

Interact Club set up a stall to sell drinks. Interactors managed to raise RM 1000. Proceeds from the sale will be used to fund future club activities and a portion donated to a charitable organisation. The Interact Club would like to thank all benefactors who have helped us in one way or another with this fund raising activity.

In the foyer of the hall, two clubs set up stalls to sell stuff for charity. There was also a Tempest photo booth too.



Form One Field Trip Form One students went on a field trip to Fairy Cave and Wind Cave near Bau

on 16 July 2015. Students have to climb steep steps to get into the caves. The view inside the caves is amazing. On the way back to Kuching, the students dropped by the Kuching Buddhist Village

which is along Batu Kitang road. They admired the beautiful gardens and had a vegetarian lunch.

2015 Interactors from St. Joseph’s Private School

Interact Club attended the first ever Joint Installation Night on the 2nd of August, 2015 at the Banquet. This event was held in collaboration with four other schools, that is SMK Bandar Kuching No.1, SMK Kuching High, SMK DPHA Gapor and SM Sains Kuching. The event was held to officially install each of us as proper interactors in our respective clubs.

Moreover, this event has helped us all grow and has provided a good learning experience to help us become better leaders in the interact community. The night kicked off with Samantha Jawing as one of the key speakers giving a speech that truly captured the essence of us all as interactors and our duty and responsibility in society. Then, there was a performance by fellow interactors from all schools.

2015 We proceeded with dinner and at the same time, watched the outgoing board of directors go up on stage to receive their certificates. After that, came the official installation process. Every member was given a badge, with the presidents each receiving a medal. Next, the respective teachers-in-charge of each club of every school presented a dance. The night ended with some of the fellow sponsors and senior members of the Rotary Club gathering on stage. Finally, the closing speech was given. The night was truly special and I am sure that all of us, newly installed interactors, were very honored and humbled to be a part of such an event. Reported by:

Mary, Immaculate Mother of God ever Virgin, after finishing the course of her life on earth, was taken up in body and soul to heavenly glory. (Munificentissimus Deus , Pope Pius XII, 1 Nov 1950)

Then God's temple in heaven was opened, and the ark of his covenant was seen within his temple; and there were flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder, an earthquake, and heavy hail. A great portent appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. (NRSV Rev 11:19 - 12:1)
