Section outline

  • Welcome back 8C2. 

    The year 2020 has been an extraordinary one. We have seen the world halt, crumple, revive and unite. If anything, this extraordinary experience has taught us to stop, reflect and trust the power of unity, resilience and courage, value individuality, and spread understanding, empathy and empowerment.
