Thank you for being such a steady and reliable leader for the choir. You always keep us on track and make sure things are running smoothly, even when we’re all tired or getting distracted. Your directness and high standards have really helped us improve, and it pushes us to take our performances seriously.

We really appreciate all the effort you put into making sure rehearsals, events, and performances go well—a lot of it happens behind the scenes and doesn’t go unnoticed. It’s clear you care a lot about us and the choir, and we’re super grateful for that.

Thanks for guiding us, looking out for us, and making sure we keep growing as a group. Hope your birthday is a well-earned break, and that you get to enjoy the day🥳!

Thank you so much for always being such a warm, funny, and genuinely caring presence in choir. You’ve been like a constant source of encouragement—whether we’re halfway through a long rehearsal or stressing over an event, you somehow always know what to say (or joke about) to lift the mood.

We really appreciate how you don’t just care about how we sound, but also how we’re feeling. It means a lot that you always take the time to check in with us and remind us to sing from the heart. Your passion really rubs off on all of us, and it’s part of what makes choir feel so special.

Thanks for being such a supportive and emotionally grounded teacher. Hope you have an amazing birthday—filled with laughter! 🎈 🎊

Happy Birthday! 🎉🎁🎊 I want to thank you for your dedication, patience, and tireless efforts in guiding our choir. Through all the challenges we’ve faced — from AEWF and SYF to our Japan trip — you’ve always kept us focused, disciplined, and united. You have not only helped us grow as singers but have also made our music learning journey so much more fulfilling. We truly appreciate the time, energy, and heart you pour into every rehearsal and performance, even during the toughest periods. Thank you so much!

thank you for always being there for the choir and espeically during the japan trip, and ensuring that it went smoothly and fun for us. your humour, joyful presence and jubilant energy always fills our rehearsals and lifts the choir up during long days and sessions :) i am so extremely grateful and appreciative to have you as one of the choir teachers and to always be there in guiding us, teaching us and (having us shed lots of tears) for believing in us even during the toughest or hardest of times. you truly inspire me to give my best and to serve those around me and whom i care to the best of my ability and for bringing so much warmth into this choir family :) Thank you and we hope you have a wonderful birthday Mr Mori!!

thank you for all the love, support and dedication u have put in for the choir, even though u stopped being the choir teacher 2 batches ago, the care and love you show to us choristers (even though we technically aren't your responsibility anymore) really just goes to show how devoted you are to helping make achoir an environment where we can prosper and grow. i genuinely do appreciate all the long conversations and (scary) phone calls we have had. thank you so much for always being a listening ear and providing me with sound advice to help me through whatever nonsense i was struggling with HAHAHA. it really meant alot to me -- even though 9 out of 10 times when i saw u in the canteen i wld need to be pulled away from my friends for another conversation. and even more so now, i appreciate how you still check up on me and my acads, i'll study hard for 'A's morisan!!! lastly, 本当にありがとう。お誕生日おめでとうございます 🥳🎂

thank you sosososo much for all the immense hardwork, hours, blood, sweat and tears you have put in to making sure our day-to-day ‘operations’ and major events go smoothly. truly, the choir is very very blessed to have you helming us and we really do thank you for all that you’ve done for us. as much as u tend to play the ‘bad cop’ most of the time, we know that it always comes from a place of love and thank you for always whipping the choir into shape whenever we would be slipping in discipline. you’re quite a humorous ‘T’ to talk to and the way you objectively and logically look at things was very entertaining whenever contrasted with angry vivian and her rants LOL. though it is not mentioned much, your patience really is quite admirable, and i really do respect you for it. not to mention your insane work ethnic is very much applaudable. despite all the late night/weekend admin matters and responses you had to deal with from isaac and i, thank you for always replying as promptly as possible, really helped out a ton 😭😭 but also, i hope you are getting the rest you need on your special day and pls don't overwork yourself sir!!! 🫡 thank you for being our super aura boss chem god, atb for your medical school studying and leading future choir batches to success ⛑️⭐️ once again, happy birthday, sir!!!

p.s. i wish u taught some arts subject so i cld pester u for late night hub consults as well 😢

Thank you for all the time and effort you have dedicated to Choir! Really there’s always a lot going on for choir but the teachers are our strongest backbone! For me, I feel like you have always been present in my Choir journey. There are ups and downs but the good memories and the lessons I have learnt from you stay. You constantly reminded us of what it means to be AChoir, that we are not merely singing but we are making music together, and progress as one. I also admire your activeness in school and also in boarding school, it seems like you have a lot in your hands but you are juggling them just fine and still bring your best energy to Choir! Thank you for inspiring generations of students! Happiest birthday and I wish you have a fantastic treat for yourself (maybe you can have a picnic and watch national day fireworks…?)

Still guiding each voice, each faltering line.

From camps to concerts, rehearsals to tears,

Your laughter and care calmed all our fears.

Through train rides and talks in a distant land,

You translated more than just words—you made us stand.

Though not "in charge", you still lead the way.

With heart, humour, and yukamuli grace.

Happy birthday. You help us believe—

In song, in each other, in what we can achieve.

本当にありがとうございます、森先生。お誕生日おめでとうございます。

You’ve held us steady, all journey long.
From SYF lights to Japan skies,
You’ve lifted us up where harmony flies.

With admin in one hand and baton in the other,
You guide like a knight, our musical father.
Through storms and stress, you hold the line—
And still make spreadsheets somehow shine.

Though often the ‘bad cop’, we see the care,
In every sharp note, you're always there.
So here’s to rest, to joy, to peace—
May your workload (briefly) find release.

And may fireworks crown your birthday night,
For our ‘super aura boss’ burns bright.

Happy birthday, Mr Leong.

happy birthday !! thank you for all the funny moments that you've created with your jokes and dry humour. you've been one of the chillest teachers to be around, and i really like your vibe. even though you aren't technically a choir teacher anymore, i still do enjoy your presence when you do pop by from time to time. wishing you the best birthday !!

Happiest birthday to you!! Thank you for being our guidance on the artistic direction for the choral pieces and a strong pillar of emotional support for the Choir! Truly I can see your special love for Choir considering how u always put us as your laptop wallpaper hehe 😝But deeply I feel grateful to have u as one of our Choir teachers, u were there in the most important moments, u tried to support us in every way u can, whether it means trying to negotiate for all of us to go to Japan or checking on our well-being and academics. Your patience is admirable too, especially as the PW teacher and monitoring head of our class hahaa! I really look up to how u can balance between being the most chill teacher sometimes and being the wise counsellor who gave us good advices and pep talks! I believe many students felt comfortable enough to open up to you and sharing our ups and downs with u, and I am one of them too. I hope we have brought joy and motivation to u too, and I wish u will continue to inspire generations of students with ur passion and dedication.

Please have the best treat with your family and friends for your birthday!!!

What a wild journey it’s been! Thank you so much for being an amazing teacher :D You somehow always manage to lighten the mood and brighten up the room with your bubbly personality and humorous comments! It’s a joy having you as my choir teacher and I wouldn’t want it any other way. Despite not having many interactions together, I enjoy each conversation we have, and especially the moments we experienced in Japan, your speeches made me cry uncontrollably 😭😭 Also, thank you for letting me take those 0.5s LOLL 🙏 I appreciate you so much for always caring for us, and remember to always take time to care for yourself. Wishing you the best year ahead!!!
