What is Ren Hann doing? Why does he look astonished?







Well, here is a little game called "passing the message"






"Human dog and bone"! Perhaps NOT for the faint-hearted ...










Heavy lunch time conversation topic: End of The World =.=





On the last afternoon a year 3 senior STAR presenter from DISM was also awarded and conferred the Certificate of Commendation by Deputy Director of DMIT Ms Shirley Ngiam together with a few students from other courses such as DIT and DDM for the excellent service rendered in the past two years.





At the end of three days, many student participants were rather tired but at the same time feeling excited. While most are looking forward to more STAR activities, some committee members have already started planning for the next gathering - Year End cum Christmas party.





All the best and make DMIT proud, fellow young STARs!
