When she came across an autobiography of Coco Chanel, the famous designer who had changed the world of fashion, Minnie was determined to be the best just like Ms Chanel.<\/p>\n<p>Minnie has shown maturity beyond her age, talking about her passion and goals, as well as presenting her clothing brand \u2018Purisa Glitzy\u2019, modelled by DBS students who were with Minnie to support her achievement. Thank you to our lovely students, Foam, Annabelle, Florence and Iris.<span class=\"im\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Support from parents and school are also of utmost importance for a child to be able to chase their dreams, and for that we, DBS, fully believe in the positive reinforcement we give to our children.<\/p>\n<p>At school, not only do students learn all the necessary subjects in order to progress in life, they must be given the opportunity to explore their other interests outside the classroom, and further deepen their learning in subjects that they are passionate about.<\/p>\n<p>Minnie is an example of a student who has discovered her passions and goals at such a very young age.
