Cassidy Sheng Memorial Award

We were celebrating Cassidy's life at Bill Crothers S. S. on Monday (April 13,2015). We were sharing the memories of Cassidy and painting on the drawing of Cass’ flower in her favourite art class. 

We were honoured to have been invited so we could share such a significant moment with school representatives including the principal, vice principals, teachers, staff and students in remembrance of Cassidy! A big thank you as well to family friends who had also attended!

At the ceremony, the vice principal unveiled an award, namely the 'Cassidy Sheng Memorial Award', which will be given to a special graduating student each year. The award encompasses many of Cassidy's qualities: excellence in visual arts; the virtues of courage, fearlessness, and perseverance, balanced by humility, kindness, and compassion.....

Cassidy's long time big dream was to being a Paralympian. She wanted so much to continue her high schooling in Bill Crothers S. S., the athletics school. Even during her most difficult time, when she was undergoing treatments to ease the nerve pains in her body from her cancer, she still insisted on going to school if she was able to. "Although her time in Bill Crothers was very short but her spirit appeared to last long and have left a remarkable impact to the school, to all of us" commented from one of the principals. 

Cassidy's swim apparel was framed as part of the memorial award that will be permanently placed in the gym. It was very emotional to remember how she once swam with that swim gear. Cassidy's "fearless" spirit will forever remain in her dream school, Bill Crothers. S. S. 

Thank you all for your love especially to her school, Bill Crothers S. S., for honouring the memory of Cassidy with this meaningful award!
