Staff Breakfast - All Campuses, Tuesday 20 April – 8.30 to 10.30 (EST), 7.30 to 9.30 (Singapore)
Dear Colleagues
All staff are invited to a light breakfast on Tuesday 20th April to kick off the birthday celebrations. As it is lecture recess, and given the opportunity this provides to start the anniversary events for the week, I strongly encourage all staff to attend. You will also have the opportunity to be a part of history by having your photo taken for a visual time capsule.
Additionally, please join me at the video link-up between our campuses and locations at 10.00 am (EST).
Please find be below the location of the breakfast venues and then the video-conference.
