Very Rainy Sports Day!

30th March was our annual sports day and boy, wasn't a really wet event. It was all bright and cheery in the morning but as soon as we got on the bus, there was no stopping the rain. The rain did not dampen our spirits though as we cheered for 4 Opal during the Cheerleading competition.

'Tell me, tell me, who's the best?

Cheetah, Cheetah is the best.

'Tell me, tell me, who's the best?
Cheetah, Cheetah is the best.

Yeah, cheetah!'

Visit to Civil Defence Heritage Gallery

Today, we went to visit the Civil Defence Heritage Gallery. Although it was only a one hour gallery walk, I believe we learned a lot about the history of civil defence and its role in ensuring safety for all Singaporeans. What are some of things that you learnt during this trip?

Corn Dish Making TODAY!

After planning for our corn dish over last term, we were elated to finally get the chance to see our corn dish come to life! We brought all of our ingredients and Mrs Rashied took us to the canteen to make the dish.

It was loads of fun! The most popular dish was the shortbread biscuits with cornflakes, honey and raisins by Nadya, Miza and Yen Meng. They had to make the dish twice and still did not get a chance to taste the fruit of their labour...

The yoghurt corn salad by Halistya, JingXiang and Joshua was beautifully presented! Well done guys! We also had the chance to use the digital camera to take photographs of our masterpiece!

Positive Qualities of Myself

We had a lesson on positive qualities for Character Development today. We were asked to describe ourselves using positive terms such as Kind Kamal, Happy Holly and so on! We then did a name card using these positive terms.
