With the restoration of the iconic old building of VS at Tyrwhitt Road to become the new HQ site of the People's Association, the building is now back to its old grandeur and is indeed a beautiful sight to behold. Old Victorians who had studied there must feel proud and nostalgic when immersed in the sight of this grand old dame. May it be suggested that for the next annual OVA dinner, the organisers consider holding it at what is now the premises of the PA. I am sure that Old Victorians would turn out in full force to enjoy the dinner and the camaraderie associated with it and above, have the opportunity to once again revisit the place of their young student days which we all surely cherish so much. Nil Sine Labore!
PA is staying there for 2 years, so they should be moving out before the end of this year.
It is better than an organization occupy it permanently, or else more changes will be done to the original buildings, etc. School buildings that have been retained permanently for use are SJI and CHIJ.
