June Open House 2016

Open House June 2016

HELLO ALL NAIL LOVERS AND PRINAGIRLS! Here another update on our recent activities in the academy.

Everyone knows before taking a course of study, it is very important to know the academy’s environment, modules and management! This is also the reason why PinkRoom periodically organises Open House event for our potential students or public to join us.

Nothing beats taking a look at the environment and enquiring for your interested courses first hand, right? In our Open House (16 June 2016), our participants were able to experience the following:

The highlight of the event was the LIVE DEMOSTRATION by our Head Academics, Joe Chua, doing the Design sculpture. Before the start of the demonstration, Joe asked if anyone was interested to become the hand model for the design sculpture, one lady volunteered herself for the demo.

While Joe designing the model’s nails, Ms Rachel Tang, Our CEO, was explaining the steps and tips in details ensuring that the participants understood what was being done on the model.

Second highlight was the Question and Answer session, this is essential because we want to make sure that participants are able to clear the questions they have on our course or modules! This is the key takeaway from this Open House. Also, we used this opportunity to explain our EduTrust Certification and SkillsFuture.
Before the participants head on to do the above activities, there was an opening speech by our CEO, Ms Rachel Tang. Giving our participants an overview of what our academy is about, our history, what we are moving towards and future career pathways.

 

Through these activities, participants are able to see for themselves the quality of our classes, knowledge of our trainers and educators and the learning environment!

Without further ado, I will let the photos taken on the event day to do the rest of the talking:

Pink Ribbon High Tea

PinkRoom was invited as a sponsor to the recent PINK RIBBON HIGH-TEAto raise awareness for breast cancer. Our PRINA Girls were there to provide free express 1Q32 INSTANT.GELLISH manicure for the 300 over guests who attended the party. The nail products were kindly sponsored for our usage by 1Q32 INSTANT.GELLISH– the only 1 step gel polish that works!

We feel proud to be a sponsor of this event, since we are surrounded by girls everyday in school! Many of them were dressed in pink in support of the Breast Cancer Month. We hope to be a good influence to our students as breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed form of cancer among women in Singapore, with about 1,490 new cases detected yearly. We would like to take this chance to spread awareness to all the everyone. It would be beneficial for more woman to know more about this illness, as for the men they can hep to spread this knowledge to their families.

The event was organised by the Singapore Cancer Society, and was held at Movida Room @St James Power Station last Saturday. The crowd started coming in at 1pm. Every one was so excited to get their nails done upon seeing the yummy INSTANT.GELLISHcolors we brought.

In support of the Pink Ribbon, we chose different shades of pink from the wide range of colors that 1Q32 INSTANT.GELLISH has to offer. It was actually very heart-warming to see how united everyone was at the event. Even the guys were dressed in pink.
