[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Last week, the hardworking men and women of Singapore were treated to a long weekend of Hari Raya Haji celebrations (all due respect to those who had to return to work, we hope you’ve been remunerated well). In the world of education, there were more reasons to celebrate as we praise and honour the educators who teach and shape our future generation.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text]TMC Academy celebrates Teacher’s Day with a morning of team bonding activities at “The Cage”. In contrary to what the venue name suggests, no one was locked up and dealt with lethal blows like you would see in a MMA cage fight. In fact, it was a great opportunity for both teachers and support staff to flex their muscles while bonding with colleagues from different departments in sports games like Combat Archery and Pool Ball. We’d let the photos do the talking![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_column_text]
Everyone arriving at The Cage for TMC Teacher’s Day Celebration!
[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Through the games, we discovered hidden talents in colleagues who can play pool ball with their buttocks, draw an arrow in the opposite direction (thus aiming at self or own team mates *chuckles*) and potential star strikers for international football leagues. Jokes aside, the building of camaraderie was visibly demonstrated during the session.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_column_text]
One of the activities of the day – Pool Ball (Pool + Ball = large sized fun)
[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_column_text]
Second activity of the day – the thrilling Combat Archery! P.S.: no bows and arrows were hurt in this game.

Due to popular demand, we had another round of PoolBall for the day!

TMC Lim appears. TMC Lim thinks this game of PoolBall needs extra fun. TMC Lim uses Piggyback card!

PoolBall now turns into Sabotage PoolBall! Rules are simple, you get 2 action cards for every ball in hole and you use it to sabotage your opponent team! Things just got hilarious!

or rather… GG…
[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]After all the sweat and tears of laughter, the staff gathered for a speech by Ms Yeow, Chief Executive Chairman of TMC Academy. She spoke about TMC’s core values of Professionalism, Affinity, Continuous Improvement and Empowerment, and how she was glad to see it exhibited amongst colleagues in that morning of activities. Ms Yeow also highlighted the importance of an active and healthy lifestyle at work and TMC’s involvement in promoting this movement. Most notably, we have been invited to speak at the 15th Annual World Health Congress, sharing our growth in this healthy workforce journey.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_column_text]
