As we close the chapter on the 2023-2024 edition of The Casual Observer, we bring you our final full edition, “Perspectives,” a fitting bittersweet finale to our yearlong creative journey to amplify NPSI student voices. Our teams poured their heart and creativity into capturing unseen perspectives and bringing to light new ways to look at the world around us. We’re also thrilled to share the success of our workshop, Shutter Therapy, which we conducted in collaboration with the incredible Serenity Spectrum Collective to raise funds for the Singapore Association for Mental Health. Read our exclusive piece on the workshop below! Finally, stay tuned for our bonus edition in August and keep an eye on our Instagram as we open applications for The Casual Observer 2024-2025 Core Team. We hope you find as much joy in reading this edition as we did in creating it for you!

The July edition of the CO displays a wide array of viewpoints on “Perspectives”, including scientific and artistic interpretations of the theme. We also collaborated with the Serenity Spectrum Collective, collecting funds for the Singapore Association of Mental Health through a student-led workshop. Our journalists thoroughly documented the event for our readers and we hope you enjoy our work!!

Through the lens of our talented photographers, we are invited to witness life from different angles. Each photograph in this collection captures a unique viewpoint, reflecting the diverse backgrounds, emotions, and stories. As you explore these images, we hope you find yourself inspired to view the world through a broader lens, recognising the beauty and complexity inherent in everything around us. Each photograph is a testament to the power of perspective in shaping our understanding and appreciation of the world we share.

Our outreach journey has been a long, but successful one. New Instagram ideas and expanding what we do with our platform to serve a greater purpose within our school community has been exceptionally fulfilling, and we hope that these designs have complemented your feed.
