2018 年非同寻常的庆祝活动
Inaugural Extra•Ordinary Celebration
On 10 November 2018, Extraordinary People presented An Extraordinary Celebration at Resorts World Theatre, a first-of-its-kind effort to celebrate inclusivity and appreciation for parents and educators in the special needs community, with the support of Official Venue Partner Resorts World Sentosa.
Extraordinary People was delighted to have Mr Ng Chee Meng, Minister in the Prime Minister’s Office and Secretary-General of the National Trades Union Congress, grace the event as Guest of Honour. The event was Singapore’s largest inclusive concert, featuring more than 500 differently abled performers, comprising 15 inclusive teams of students from Special Education (SPED) schools partnering with mainstream schools or organisations. A robust 90-minute stage programme showcased various art forms such as aikido, circus arts, Latin dance and hand chimes.
The 1,400-strong audience enjoyed the concert alongside parents, educators and guests. It was the culmination of more than three months of rehearsals, with various schools and groups coming together to co-create their performance items. The process provided opportunities for partnering teams to interact and get to know one another, contributing to shaping an inclusive attitude.
