This is a new age for The Origin*, and with it, a new host of articles and content for our readers to enjoy! It is a huge step for Press, as we more than tripled our numbers this year and came up with many exciting new segments while reviving old ones.

We started off our term with a bang in the form of our ‘Periscope’ current affairs series. Of course, that will not be our last as we will work to create quality articles that you can definitely look forward to seeing in the future! We have also strengthened ties with the various other CCAs, such as collaborating with the performing arts CCAs on the ‘Light the Way’ series for College Day. We also have a collaboration with the Media Resource Library Club in the works. Hint: it has something to do with books (duh).

Most importantly, we bid farewell to our seniors – Ashley, Niik, Jo and Jacey. The four of them worked on The Origin* with a skeleton crew and we are grateful for all they have done the past year. They hand the reins over to the new Executive Committee – myself as Editor-in-chief, Ernest Tan as Deputy Editor-in-chief, Beverly Tan as Secretary and Jo Yeoul as Chief Designer. We wish them all the best for their ‘A’ levels and they will be remembered for all they have done. Seniors, we won’t let you down.

We still have a long road ahead of us, but rest assured we will strive for to give you, our readers, the best we can achieve, and we hope that you will continue to support The Origin*.

Signing off,

Aloysius Tng,

Editor-in-chief (2019-2020)
