The New Paper Be Yourself Day is on 31 Aug, 2007
(Day before Teachers Day) but schools may declare any other day to
celebrate. On this day, students are encouraged to hang up their
uniforms and come to school dressed to best express their
personalities. They can join in this great day of creative freedom
by simply making a donation. Their contributions will help The New
Paper raise funds for the President's Challenge 2007.
The President's Challenge, mooted by President Nathan in the year
2000, is a series of events benefiting 58 charities. This is the
eigth year The New Paper is involved in the President's Challenge
and the sixth year it's organising the "Be Yourself Day".
The Most Creative
Contest
Students of participating schools will hang up their uniforms on Be
Yourself Day and report to school dressed anyway they want - to
best express their personalities. They can be cool, chic, or simply
out-of-this world! The top 3 most creative dressers in each
participating school will win a $50 book voucher each and might
have their pictures published in The New Paper. Winners will be
decided by respective participating schools.
