Sleep for Good Health

Everyone needs enough sleep so that they can function well.

Research has shown that if you sleep enough, you will be able to remember better. 

It can also regulate your health and help you maintain an ideal weight.

Please make sure you have enough sleep.

Learning from mistakes

It's okay to make mistakes. But mistakes are meant for learning, not repeating.

If you keep making the same mistake, that means you have not learned from it.

Chinese New Year Celebration

Horses - Contributed by S.Hrithik

       Chinese New Year is just round the corner! It's the time of the year where all of us start to decorate the classrooms and immerse in the joyous festive season.

       There will be an inter-class competition and prizes will be given to the top 3 classes of each level.

       The classroom decorations will be assessed by the following criteria:

• Ability to showcase the festive mood: 40%
• Pupils' work: 30%
• Overall Presentation: 20%
• Creativity: 10%

     Let's get ready to decorate the classroom. Please bring your contributions!

Getting a Right Schoolbag

Getting a right schoolbag is a great deal of hassle.

First, you have to ensure the size is right, so that you can put in the books that you need to bring to school.

Second, the schoolbag itself must not be too heavy. It would be foolish to add the extra load that one has to carry to school.

Third, it must be easy to carry.

I have seen many students bringing the trolley bag to school. According to the students, their bags are too heavy, so it is easier to push/pull them around. I strongly agree with them. However, these students are not studying in schools that have only one storey. They may have to carry their bags when they reach a staircase and this is a very dangerous situation.

Students will have to pull their trolley bag (which is usually behind them) to the side so that they can carry the bag. Then, they will stagger down the stairs. (Usually, students carry their trolley bag in front of them because it is a hassle to carry it on their back.) In some cases, students may not even see where they are going, they are just predicting their way. If someone were to stop suddenly, they may just trip and fall. When they reached the landing, they will drop the trolley bag to the side and pull. This often result in the sudden stop in the movement of the pupils in the line. So, can you imgine a child stopping at the landing to start dragging his bag, while another have his bag in front of him trying to walk down the stairs?

Let's get back to basic. The easiest way to ensure that the bag is light is to pack the schoolbag. Avoid bringing the unnecessary things to school. It is true that students may have to bring more books on certain days. Why not make use of the lockers in the school? Almost all schools in Singapore have lockers these days, why not make use of them since they are already there? Ask the teacher for permission if you need one.
