Don Huse, Chair of our Book Prize Committee, advises that this year we have received nearly 140 applications from Singapore JC-2 students. The Book Prize Committee has met several times over the past few weeks in order to ensure that each application was read by as many judges as possible. The Committee has now narrowed down the candidates to 8 “finalists” who will be meeting with a panel of judges for interviews in the next few weeks.

Our 8 finalists are the following, listed alphabetically:

Lester Ang, Jurong JC
Shermin Chen, National JC
Denise Fernandez, Temasek JC
Judith Jacob, ACJC
Fatima Musa, Temasek JC
Danh Khoa Nguyen, ACJC
Tri Hung Nguyen, Victoria JC
Samantha Toh, Hwa Chong Institution

We thank everyone for participating and congratulate each of our finalists. Our 3 book prize winners will be announced once the interviews have been completed.
