🎄 Honoring Our Educators: IG 2025 Christmas Party

In December 2025, IG held its annual Educators’ Christmas Celebration — a special gathering to honor our teachers and staff, reflect on the year, and celebrate our shared achievements.

This celebration was more than just a party; it was a moment to pause, connect, and express gratitude for the incredible dedication, care, and passion our educators bring every day.Surrounded by laughter, shared stories, and genuine appreciation, we were reminded once again that IG’s greatest strength lies in its people.

🌱 Opening Remarks: From Vulnerability to Strength

The party began with a message from our founder, highlighting the values that guide IG forward:

Love. Beauty. Belief.

We reflected on the journey from vulnerability to strength, understanding that true confidence comes from a strong inner foundation.From hiding to openness, from uncertainty to belief, we were reminded that positive thinking is a choice.Fatigue may come, but giving up is never an option.Continuous growth, trust in ourselves, and persistence in the face of challenges define who we are.

🛠 Professional Development: PD Funding Workshop & Practical Life

Following the opening, we moved into a PD Funding Workshop and a Practical Life session.

These sessions grounded our values in action.They reminded us that professionalism, reflection, and hands-on learning are not abstract ideals — they are practiced every day, shaping both our teaching and ourselves.

🎂 Birthday Surprise Before Dinner

Before dinner, we paused to celebrate teachers who had recently had birthdays.

A cake-cutting moment, applause, and warm smiles made this a simple yet meaningful gesture.At IG, every individual is valued, and every milestone is worth celebrating.

🍽 Shared Meal & Thoughtful Gifts

Dinner followed, offering everyone a chance to relax and connect outside of daily routines.

As a token of appreciation, IG prepared down vests for our teachers — a practical and heartfelt gift, symbolizing warmth and support both in work and life.

💬 Peer Sharing: Voices from Our Team

One of the most meaningful parts of the party was peer sharing.

Teachers shared reflections, experiences, and lessons learned over the year.These candid stories — filled with challenges, growth, and pride — reminded us that while everyone’s path may differ, we are all moving forward together.

🎁 Gift Exchange: Thoughtful Giving and Joyful Moments

The gift exchange added laughter and surprise to the gathering.

Every teacher brought a small gift to share. Through a draw-and-swap process, gifts were exchanged, and sometimes even “stolen” in good fun.This was not just a playful activity — it was a heartfelt sharing, with each gift carrying wishes and warmth, reflecting the camaraderie and spirit of our team.

🎒 Parting Gifts: Small Tokens, Big Gratitude

As the event came to a close, each teacher received a final gift prepared by IG:red vest, stickers, notebooks, children’s binders, and other materials for teaching and creativity.

These small items carried a bigger message — a thank you for the care, dedication, and love you bring to children every day.

❤️ Gratitude for Our Teachers and Staff

This year, we also want to express our deepest thanks to all teachers and staff for their hard work and dedication.

Throughout the year, our group chats have been filled with messages of encouragement, appreciation, and support.These messages — simple, sincere, and spontaneous — show the heart of our team.

These words capture the warmth, encouragement, and mutual respect that define the IG community.They are a true reflection of the culture we are proud to nurture.

🌟 Looking Ahead

The IG 2025 Christmas Party was not an ending — it was a reminder.

Belief is our foundation.Growth is ongoing.And together, we are building something meaningful, strong, and full of light.

We move forward with gratitude, confidence, and hope for the year ahead.
