History of the Alumni Association
The Fairfield Methodist Schools Alumni Association was formed in 1951. The association was formed so that old girls who have left the school can interact with their teachers and friends through activities organised by the association. The founding members included Mrs Lim Bock Kee, several teachers and alumni.
The early years saw the association:
- Organising Christmas gatherings/dinners, which later evolved to the Founders Day Dinner in 1972
- Organising visits to retired teachers, which later became the teacher-alumni lunch in the 1980s
- Taking part in the Games Days – which later evolved to the Past vs Present games and Fairfield Homecoming
- Taking part or supporting the school fundraising carnivals
Throughout the years, the association organised many fundraising events such as putting up plays in the 1960s, organising walkathon in 1984 and a charity golf event in 2004. The association used the funds raised to provide bursary awards to students and donations to the canteen stallholders.
In 2000, it revamped the Constitution to reflect the school’s change of name, its co-educational enrolment, and expansion into 2 separate schools. The year also saw the Association’s newsletter officially named “In Tandem“, a name chosen to underline the dynamics of the Association‘s role alongside the 2 schools.
Today the association has over 1,700 members and continues to organise events for alumni, to support the school and to promote the networking of alumni with teachers and other stakeholders.
