GROWTH DAY!

Hello everyone. Yesterday,was growth day in chong boon. Well, u might be thinking what is growth day. It is a very unique occasion that we practice in chong boon. Mainly we learn new things which are related to the values that we always use in our life. For example, perseverance, repect, integrity and many more. In chong boon, we also have a theme called ' bridging gaps'. On this day we recall on the previous year's examinations and other important things and rethink about them. We learn to work harder towards our aspirations and bridge our gaps.

Yesterday, school started a normally. After reading period, we had an assembly talk about student's experience during their trip to various countries. They definitely had a great experience but also learnt alot of other things such as the values. On every growth day, we have to do an hands on activity. Last year was to make an banner for the youth olympics which will be held in Singapore on 2010. But this year we had to do an video about the the 16 habits we practice daily. After that, we set target for our examination for 2009.

Well, we did this task very carefully. Once we set our target we must make sure we put enough effort to reach it. And then soon it was going to be the end of school. We all assembled in the hall. we had another short talk, about what we have learnt at the end of today plus we had all the videos combined together and was shown in the hall. I could say, I learnt alot of things at the end of day. I wish to practice the values i have learnt, so that i can bridge my gaps work real towards my aspirations.
