Hi Everyone,

Since we returned to school two weeks ago, we had to take our temperature twice a day. Some of the pupils could not return to school because they were on leave of absence. Our remedial, CCA and other activities have been cancelled or postponed. In this week's reflection, I would like you to discuss how all these have affected you. I have listed some questions below to help you with your reflection:

1. What do you think of the school's preventive measures for H1N1 such as temperature-taking, no assembly in the hall, cancellation of remedial lessons, CCA and other activities?

2. Which activities have affected you?

3. How has the cancellation of these activities affect you in your learning?

4. Do you think the school is less interesting now? Why?

5. Are you relationship with your friends and teachers affected? If 'yes', in what way/s?

6. What do you do with the extra time you have now?

7. Are you activities outside school affected?I hope to read your reflection soon.

Start writing immediately.

Hi Everyone,
Last week, Mrs Nam spoke about the loss of things during CCA in the school. She invited the CCA leaders to come up with suggestions to solve the problem. For this week, I would like everyone to think of ways of improving our school. This could be the improvement in physical facilities such as the field, toilets, classroom, canteen, library, art room, computer lab and other facilities or the people who provided services to you such as the office personnel, teachers, book shop lady, school bus drivers and even the cleaners. In short, you can think of any aspects of the school that needs to improve so that the lives of pupils will be better.
To help you, I have listed some questions below:

1. Which aspect/s of the school do you like very much? Why?
2. Which aspect/s of the school do you think you dislike? Why?
3. What do you think can be done to improve it/them?
4. What other areas of the school should be improved?
5. How can pupils help in the improvement of the school?

These questions are just a guide to help you start writing. You are free to to give your own opinions and suggestions..I hope to read your suggestions soon.

Mr Ng

1. I like the canteen food, game and computer lab the most(I think I have so many to write down.)because the food is very delicious and the game is also very fun. I also like the computer lab beacause it has good computer and aircon.
2. I don't like the canteen toilet and some classroom because they are a bit dirty.
3. I think we should think more about other people and keep the toilte clean.I think the cleaner also clean it often.(Sorry, I know all the cleaners are busy.) The classroom is we should tell all the students to don't vandalise the table or chair. In our class also one boy draw on the table and turn the chair upside down so that he could sit on it and use the chair legs as handle.
4. I thinke that what I wrote on top is enough.
5. They should co-operate and respect each other.
