Orientation - January & March 2019



The U Lounge bustled with activity as 204 new residents took part in Orientation sessions held respectively on 14th January and 27th March, aimed at helping residents integrate and settle seamlessly into their new living environment.

Games and activities helped to break the ice and spark new conversations and friendships as many of them come from diverse backgrounds. After that, the new residents were briefed on their new living environment which included Do’s & Don’ts as well as local customs and emergency procedures. They were had the chance to vote for future community service projects while many registered their interest to become Resident Fire Marshals.
