Krishna GhantalaIn the words of Eleanor Roosevelt, I think this quote is quite poignant - The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams. I think having a dream and an ambition is very important. And it could be anything but it helps to channel your energy and it helps make every experience more rewarding. Alice Smith has certainly shaped and made me a better person and has given me stronger morals.
I am eternally grateful for this experience and the Alice Smith Scholarship. Grateful for the opportunities I've been given the privilege to explore; for the community of people whom I've come to cherish; and for the encouragements that have inspired me to dream unceasingly.
Charissa LeeAlice Smith has opened my mind to a wide range of subjects, especially the social sciences. I have developed the skills of an independent learner which will be invaluable when I am at university. The Alice Smith Scholarship has given me a great community of friends and teachers who have prepared me for the academic and personal challenges that I will face in future. I feel extremely grateful for the opportunity to learn in a very encouraging environment.
Valerie HoAlice Smith constantly encourages us to be inquisitive and to be creative, and I think it is here where students are cultivated to be curious and to always think outside the box. As an Alice Smith scholar, I learnt how to be agile; to be able to adapt to a variety of situations with a high degree of enthusiasm. I’ve also learnt to be more confident and open minded, which are essential traits when it comes to meeting new people and experiencing new situations. The Scholarship has taught me to make use of every opportunity in my way. I’ve learnt to be more resilient and to be bolder in taking risks, and I think it will definitely help me greatly as I step into university.

Ellery NadarajahAlice Smith has done so much for me. I was able to play the flute with the Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra and also climbed the second highest mountain in Africa, Mount Kenya. It took me all over the world. I got a scholarship to go to America to play my flute and that has built my musical culture; on top of all the academia as well. Alice Smith was so much more than a school to me.

I was very fortunate coming to a school like Alice Smith where we had a very holistic education. Academics were important but we were also encouraged to do a lot of extra-curricular activities. And we were taught not by rote but to understand principles rather than just memorise them.
