The Puteri teachers who accompanied the students : Pn Shantini, Pn Sharifah Adilah, Pn Ting and Pn Fadzillah.

One of the speakers : Darina Yusof from HSBC. She spoke on Effective Writing Skills. A great speaker who gave lots of insights to the students on how to write effectively and be original when writing. Her great sense of confidence was shown when a student asked a personal question as to why she wears platform shoes. She lifted her left foot to show her shoe....her left foot is 6 inches shorter than her right. She gave a very touching sharing on how her mother spurred her on to success despite her physical defect.



The three participants in the Essay Writing Competition : Irda Amelia, Sharanyaa and Stephanie.









Sharanyaa and the Executive Director of Sunway University.
