AN OFFICIAL INVITATION l SHOWCASING PFP WORKS l 17-24 Oct 2013 l LEVEL 5 DG28-5-3


Dear PFP Students & Parents!
This year is a little special because Polytechnic Foundation Programme (PFP) is a new curriculum with School of Design.
So, we decided to have a walk through display to showcase of the artworks open to students, parents and design colleagues.
If you need more details on PFP, visit:

A SHORT INTRODUCTION TO THIS INVITE:
PFP begins with a lively group of top Secondary 4 Normal Academic students who do not have
much prior exposure to drawing, technical or computer skills, let alone design thinking ability.
The PFP students taking our PFP Design subjects will eventually spread out to all 8 Diplomas*.
The PFP design team consists of:
Veronica Lee & Wong Si-Y
(Semester 1 Subjects: Colour appreciation & Understanding design)
Rachna Johri & Justin Lee (Semester 2 Subjects:  Understanding form & Visual storytelling)

We started in April 2013, and have covered necessary basics, encompassing
drawing, design processes and design thinking. Ideas & artwork grows in various way & format.
Semester 2 begins next Monday (21 Oct), so this will be another exciting semester!

Tempted for a peep yet? The works comes with in-depth thought processes, so, do browse through the sketches!
The humble display showcase what the journey was like for PFP students – challenging, exciting, brain tearing
and most importantly, a passionate one. We look forward to growing together!

The exhibition runs the whole of next week, ending Thursday.
Students & parents who wish to come by are all welcome.
We thank you for your enthusiasm, support and presence!
