Thinker with a Mission, Leader with a Heart series 11

Congratulations to Valsalan Nivish, Class of 2022, for receiving the Harvard Prize Book (Singapore) 2022/23 award, presented to promising students all around the world who go beyond the call of duty to show kindness and care to others. With its origins dating back to 1910, the Harvard Prize Book award recognises promising young service leaders who have inspired others to authentic and sustainable acts of kindness.

Nivish has been commended for his contributions to the college community as well as his involvement in his neighbourhood. A proponent of active ageing, he is heavily involved in numerous events organised by his neighbourhood committee for the sake of helping the elderly in his neighbourhood live a more active lifestyle.

Within the college community, Nivish led the 47th Student Council as its President. In this capacity, he worked tirelessly to improve student life within the college, serving as a voice for the student body and proposing as well as implementing numerous changes to the college, all in the name of giving his fellow schoolmates the best JC experience possible.

From Nivish we see an exemplar of a CJC Thinker with a Mission, Leader with a Heart, who maximises the opportunities available to do good for those around him.

In Veritate et Caritate
