As the IB course has become more challenging, I am spending more time at home doing homework and coursework. When this happens, I rarely go out to relax and exercise. Having signed up for Netball, not only keeps me physically fit but also mentally. It is a good way to destress as I can take […]

Kahaani :)
Kahaani has been a very meaningful experience. I have not only learnt a new style of dancing but also learnt more about the Indian culture. I used to dance for fun as an outside school activity. However, learning the purpose behind this dance and the money raised made it more worthwhile. Living in Singapore made […]
AMK minds T3
We are in our third term and only have about are close to the end of not only school but also the service AMK minds. I have enjoyed this experience as it made me aware of how lucky I am. Especially with the Covid-19 situation, it is difficult to spend time with people, and for […]
Japan 3
Culturama has been over for a while and yet I can still remember the sense of bond I created with the people I danced with. I can hear the motivational calls as we all go through the tiring rehearsal to prepare for the big day. This has allowed me to reflect on how grateful I […]
Japan 2
The first dance taught was about their history with fishing. Fish were their main source of protein and were considered to be part of their everyday meal. The movement of the dance was huge as if we were catching the fish in our nets when we rowed out into the sea. It shows the determination […]

The showcase has been officially been over for about a month now. Im sad that it is over. It was really fun to learn the different dance styles such as Jazz and hiphop. It was also really nice to be able to meet different people from different grades. I have formed new friendships and said […]
Netball
Although training has been tough, it’s also enjoyable. In my previous school, I would only stick to the one position I was assigned (shooter, GA/ GS) and it can get very repetitive and boring. However, in this school, I’m able to be more flexible and Coach Asher allows us to choose another position if our […]
Chinese chat
A month has passed since I have joined the Chinese chat. I am currently partnered up with a G7 student, Kate. She’s in a position where no one in her family speaks Chinese so she can only practice it in school. Being in a similar place, I know how it feels to be struggling, especially […]
Chinese Chat
I have decided to join Chinese Chat as it allows me to help younger students who are struggling and in need of extra support. They may not have anyone to speak with at home which can be challenging when learning Chinese as it can be hard to improve on it if you could only practice […]
