July SWC Events Updates

Amidst the frantic and bustling schedule, I suddenly realised I have not updated this blog for quite some time. It feels so dusty in here.

Here are some of the SWC events that was happening in the month of July. We had a YELLOW July and a banana each for those who came and celebrated their day in YELLOW. Here are some of our lower primary teachers in YELLOW!

We also had a birthday celebration for staff who were born in July and there was a lot of July babies. 

An Inspirational Story

The Story of the Butterfly 
A man found a cocoon of a butterfly.
One day a small opening appeared.
He sat and watched the butterfly for several hours
as it struggled to squeeze its body through the tiny hole.
Then it stopped, as if it couldn’t go further. 


So the man decided to help the butterfly.
He took a pair of scissors and
snipped off the remaining bits of cocoon.
The butterfly emerged easily but
it had a swollen body and shriveled wings. 
The man continued to watch it,
expecting that any minute the wings would enlarge
and expand enough to support the body,
Neither happened!
In fact the butterfly spent the rest of its life
crawling around.
It was never able to fly. 



What the man in his kindness
and haste did not understand:
The restricting cocoon and the struggle
required by the butterfly to get through the opening
was a way of forcing the fluid from the body
into the wings so that it would be ready
for flight once that was achieved. 
Sometimes struggles are exactly
what we need in our lives.
Going through life with no obstacles would cripple us.
We will not be as strong as we could have been
and we would never fly.
