6 NOV: A Learning Point for Us

We had an 1 hour lesson in a local primary school as our VIA activity. Besides teaching English, the students shared different topics about Singapore, such as tourist attractions, local food and school CCAs. We had also donated books and stationaries to the students.

Before the trip, we aimed to have a fruitful lesson which can make an impact to the local students. We worked  hard towards the target during preparation and we finally did it! We tasted satisfaction in our lessons as the responses from the students are overwhelming . (#AimHighActNow)

We were impacted in the VIA as well. During debrief session, we shared our feelings and were happily found out that we shared a same thought - to appreciate our lives in Singapore. 

The students are interested in the pictures that we showed


Germaine was sharing her CCA - East Spring Symphonic Band 

They will be missed

In the afternoon, we had sight-seeing in the city.
