Mrs Saraspathy Menon
Principle
Chong Boon Secondary School
Dear Mrs Sarapathy Menon,
There was this group of students who were rude to the librarians. They shouted at the librarian when she asked them to keep quiet. One of the boys scolded the librarian in Mandarin. The librarian was angry and threatened to report him to the Discipline Committee. The rest of the boys became verbally abusive and challenged the librarian to report them all. Personally, I think the boys should be punished for their rowdy and rude behavior to someone who is a senior to them.
Some students actually break the rules. They managed to sneak food in. They even spilled their drinks onto the table. There were ants as it was sweet drinks. The table became sticky and it was unable to study there. I hoped you will ensure that pupils observe cleanliness rules in the library. Food and drinks should not be allowed in the library as they will dirty the library making it an unpleasant place to study in.
There was a boy who wore his PE attire into the library. He was soaked in perspiration. This is unhealthy for him as he may catch a cold. This is unpleasant for other users in the library as there may be an odour. Pupils should not be allowed to enter the library in PE attire. They should be changed into their uniforms before entering the library. The library should enforce this rule so that the library will be a conducive place for all.
There was a group of students who were using the library’s computer to play Internet games. There was another group of students, standing behind them to wait for their turn to use the computer for their projects. When they ask the group of students politely, they refused to let them use the computers and even scolding them using some vulgarities. I think the library should ban the playing of Internet games as most of the students may get addicted to the games causing the student’s academic studies to drop.
The library became a place full of inconsiderate people. It used to be peace and quiet for people to study and doing projects. As the principal of the school, I hope that you will do some actions on these inconsiderate people in the library.
Your sincerely,
Ming Aik

Using PEEL (Banana)

Banana is a healthy fruit for the humans and it has many uses. Its flesh contains vitamin A, B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B9 and C. It contains calcium and iron to help keep our bones strong. We can use the banana leaves to steam the glutinous rice. We can also extract the banana juice but it requires a lot of effort cause when we compressed it, it simply turns to a pulp. Lastly, i think the banana is a healthy fruit as it contains alot of vitamins, calcium and iron. It also have alot of uses like steaming the glutinous rice.

Reflection on International Friendship Day

What are the relationships that are important to you within the school context?

The school environment and I since this is a green school which earn a niche award the past few years. It is important that we should reuse,reduce and recycle to slow down the rate of global warming as it would make the world a better place.

What do you know about the history of your school/CCA?
In 1994, Chong Boon Secondary School accepted its first batch of students in December 1993, taking over Anderson Secondary School's old building located at

2,Ang Mo Kio, Street 44
Singapore 569250

In total, there were 483 Secondary One students in 13 classes and 23 staff then. Mrs Cecilia Lee was appointed the Principal.


In 1995,the enrolment grew to 772 students with 35 staff.


In 2000,The school vision, ‘A Thinking & Gracious Citizen’, was formulated.

Share a story about your school/CCA.It can be funny ones, successful ones and difficult ones.

Last year, there was a NPCC ( National Police Cadet Corps) camp held in June.At that time, which was about 10pm, our sir and mdm organized one game, they formed us in pairs (1boy,1girl) and then they send us to walk around the whole school. I was paired up with a secondary 2 girl. When it is our turn to go, the secondary 2 girl was so afraid of the dark and pulled my PE T-shirt so hard that it almost break.Our sir and mdm tried to scare us using some tricks like jumping out from a corner or throwing something like a rag doll down from 2nd floor or anywhere higher than 1st floor.When we finally finished, I felt that why my PE T-shirt was like so loose and then i laughed cause the girl was holding it very tightly and also pulling it.

Have the stories you heard from your classmates changed the way you view/feel about the your school?

Yes. At first I thought that this school was not as good as Ang Mo Kio Secondary School. But my friends said that this school the teacher is quite good to the students, helping those who were in need in studies. I felt that the teacher really care about us the students that we pass our O-levels or N-levels to go to a good polytechnic or junior college.

International Friendship Day

Today was the International Friendship Day. Our English teacher, Mdm Tan, prepared us a video and some powerpoint slides to help us know more about the International Friendship Day. Although the video is about Youth Olympic Games, it is still concerning about the International Friendship Day as we had to be friends play as a team or else we will not have any teamwork or friendship as we do not understand each other well.After the whole powerpoint slides and the video ended, Mdm Tan gave us one reflection worksheet to be done on the paper as well as on blog three days later.

Sports Fiesta

Today was the sport fiesta which was held annually by the school. This year's sport fiesta was still held at serangoon stadium.When we arrived at the stadium,i waited at the gate for my friends to come.After that, we chat for a while and we was told to sing the national anthem and the pledge. After that, we were told by Mr Tan to go to our respective houses to sit together. After Mr Tan be the judge for some games, my friend, came to my house to sit and chat about other things. After the prize presentation, we went home.
