Birthday celebration

Hi everyone,

Just wanna say thank you for the birthday surprise on Monday! It really was a surprise, and I think other teachers who went into the classroom after me got the surprise too, with all the balloons and decor. Thank you for the cake, I have not had a birthday cake for a long while already. Finally, thank you for the present also! I'll see how I can use it, shouldn't be difficult because this is a very stressful week for me.

And of course, my birthday wish is that 1E1 can become a class of exemplary role models for the rest of Pei Hwa! It might be difficult, it requires effort from everyone to do good in every situation and in every way when they are in school, but it is possible! Will you help me realise my wish and make it come true?

(Btw, Syafiq do you think you can post up photographs of our class outing here?)

Welcome back!

Hi all,

Welcome back to school for Semester 2! Unfortunately I'll be seeing much less of the class this semester because literature is over, but hope we'll still stay in touch (after classes?).

Hope everyone enjoyed our last outing too! I was really impressed by the Peranakan museum when I visited it last year, and that's why I wanted to share it with you all. Like most of you, I didn't really know who are the Peranakans, and the trip there was really enlightening for me.

The SYF performance was amazing wasn't it? It is really incredible to see so many talented Primary school students putting up fantastic performances, playing the band marches that I used to play in Secondary school, dancing almost as well as our own PH dance group etc. It is really inspiring to see them in action, and I hope you are inspired to nurture your own talents too, whatever it may be!

As always, do look for me often if you have something to tell me, or just want a talk or a meal together! This semester has a crazy start and I'm really really busy right now, but I still hope to spare some time for all of you.

Mr Ong

When will it be ???

Hey Mr Ong ! Fatin , iris and shu xuan here . when will you come back from your reservice ? we miss you . the class has been fine but even mr chng has left us . when will you come back? pls come back soon [:

Ready for the holiday?

Hi my dear class!

How's everyone? I've had a very good 2 weeks of reservists so far, with the most tiring week coming soon. Everyone in my reservist unit is new to me and I've met lots of interesting people over there. It's refreshing to take a break from work and do something really different like this actually, though I miss being with the class!

I've absolutely no idea what happens in school for you all in this post-exam period! Are you all getting your results/report book this coming week? I hope all of you are happy with your results! Now, whether or not you think you did well for the mid-year, do spend an hour or two everyday revising your work! Flip through what you covered this half year and make sure you really understood everything (don't cheat yourself on this!); if not, look over it and find out the answers. You can't go into the next half year without being absolutely confident of knowing what has been taught previously.

Besides that, look forward to the holidays!

Mr Ong

Proverbs - According to 6year olds

Mary taught first grade. She had a class of twenty-five adorable 6yr olds. One day Mary gave each child the first half of a well known proverb and asked them to write in the remainder of the proverb. It's hard to believe these were actually done by first graders. While reading the results, keep in mind that these are only first graders, just 6 years olds.

Love all, trust....................... me.

An idle mind is....................... the best way to relax.

Work hard for the Mid Years exams!

Hi everyone,

Good luck for the exams! Hope everyone use your time productively and ask yourself this question constantly: "Am I doing my best to study for the exams?" Just 5 days of hard work before you relax and get ready for the holidays!

While studying, please remember these things:

1. Never leave questions that comes into your mind unanswered. Jot anything you want to ask and look for friends or teachers for the answer.
2. You MUST have 7 hours of sleep at least!
3. Apply exam tips! Despite all my reminders to get you to plan your essays, many of you still do not plan your composition last friday. Use the advice that teachers give and do not do things the same old way!
   

Study smart, and never leave things to chance!
