As part of the lead-up to SJI’s Teachers’ Day celebrations, the ORA Cup, organised by the 5th Prefects’ EXCO.
As part of the lead-up to SJI’s Teachers’ Day celebrations, the ORA Cup, organised by the 5th Prefects’ EXCO, brought the SJI community together for an exciting and inclusive sporting event in support of SJI’s 175th Anniversary fundraising efforts.
More than just a friendly competition, the ORA Cup was a celebration of the Josephian spirit — bringing students, staff, parents and coaches together through sport while promoting the values of community, sportsmanship and service.
On the field, the Lasallian Staff secured an entertaining 10–4 victory over the SJI Student Selection. Coach Shahrin (SJI) led the scoring with a hat-trick, while Mr Syah Fidzuan (SJI Junior), Mr Syaifudin (SJI) and Mr Ang Ting Hong (SJI PSG) contributed two goals each. Mr Muntane (SJI) completed the scoring for the staff team.
The students, however, made sure the staff had to work for their victory! Competing with determination and commendable fighting spirit throughout the match, Akeem Rizqin (LE201), Lucas Wong (ML201), Kar Woh (MN303) and Armaan Sanjay (FN501) each found the net for the SJI Student Selection.
Beyond the final score, the ORA Cup reflected the strong bonds that unite our SJI community. It was a wonderful reminder that sport is not only about competition, but also about building friendships, strengthening community and coming together in support of a shared cause.
A fitting celebration of the camaraderie and community spirit that make SJI special — and a memorable way to lead into our Teachers’ Day celebrations.
Happy Teachers’ Day to all our educators!
