challenges. Many recall her generosity in helping students Taste of Life by the late Madam Tan
acquire computers during the remote learning days of
the pandemic, and supporting graduates who were facing
challenges in furthering their studies.

The book launch was a bittersweet celebration, as
Madam Tan could not be present to witness the realisation of her dream.
However, the event was filled with heartfelt tributes and fond memories shared by
her colleagues, students, and the wider school community. Through the Taste of Life,
Madam Tan's legacy will continue to inspire readers, reminding them to cherish the
simple pleasures in life — a good book, a delectable slice of cheesecake, and the
companionship of a beloved pet, just as she had done.

The book itself is a delightful and accessible read, perfect for the busy lives
of students and teachers alike. Each of the 25 life lessons is concise and thought-
provoking, offering wisdom and encouragement that can be quickly absorbed
and applied. Whether you are seeking a moment of calm reflection or a burst of
motivation, Taste of Life promises to nourish the mind, body, and soul.

As we celebrate the launch of Madam Tan's book, we are reminded of the
enduring impact of her compassion, mentorship, and unwavering commitment to
education. She will forever be remembered as a beloved figure who dedicated her
life to uplifting and empowering those around her. Through the Taste of Life, her
spirit will continue to guide and inspire us all.
