“Night of Memories” is an Intercultural Club tradition. As well as being the 21^st anniversary of this event, this year was also a transitional period, where Mrs Bowie took over the supervision of the Intercultural club system from long-serving Mrs Mouquet.

Held in Rutherford house, the one plus hours event was more of an “Afternoon of Memories” showing a deep severing of tradition perhaps linked to the new manager.

Food was a big part of the event – 30 pizzas were shipped in, grabbed and devoured in a matter of minutes.  Everyone mingled within the crowd, pizza in in one hand and soft drinks in the other, conversing and getting comfortable.

Then a slew of speeches and gifts came. Mrs Bowie was first: she thanked and gave gifts to each of the executive members of 2013. She reminded the attendees of the challenges faced in this year of transition.

Andrew Wang, the outgoing president, then requited the thanksgiving with the ICC’s own gifts – flowers and a photo album – quite fitting considering the event being called the “Night of Memories”.

Following this, Excellence badges were awarded to club members for participation and effort. Each club presented one or two badges along with a speech: some awkward, some highly entertaining.

The executive for 2014 was announced afterwards, with the team for 2013 bowing out and handing the reins of the club to the new co-ordinators.
