Might of One, Strength from All
Hi everyone πŸ‘‹!

I’m Shirin, the incoming 22nd Ellipsis Events Director, and I’m reaching out to share a new event initiative we’re exploring for SCIS students.

What’s this about πŸͺ©?

We’re currently exploring the possibility of organising a SCIS Homecoming, a fun and meaningful night for SCIS students to come together, reconnect, and celebrate our shared SCIS community. The event may include dinner, photo opportunities, and light activities in a semi-formal setting.

Why this matters ✨

For SCIS Homecoming to take place, we’ll need a strong level of interest from the SCIS community. If this is something you’d be excited to attend, your response truly makes a difference.

Help us make this happen πŸ“£

β€’ Complete the interest form
β€’ Share it with your friends
β€’ Encourage your peers to sign up by 21 January 2026

The stronger the response, the closer we are to bringing SCIS Homecoming to life ✨

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to Shirin (@s_h_1_r_1_n) or Leyna (@LeynaCWS)!

πŸ“Œ Note: This initiative is intended for SCIS students only.
