Yew Chung International School – Christmas Pageant
The annual Christmas Pageant is an important aspect of the Christian celebration of Christmas and relays the events leading up to the glorious birth of Jesus. Through scripture reading, worship music and congregational hymns, the Nativity story was brought to life by Year 1 students, as we celebrate the birth of Christ. The performance was also supported by students of various year levels who showcased their talents in this joyful collaboration. Nine Year 12 students, who joined Yew Chung International School (YCIS) as young as two years old, narrated the story and inspired the younger students to augment their all-round development as they journey with YCIS in the years to come.
