Good morning, I am Nadia. My 4 years in Bowen was very impactful. I came to Bowen as  a DSA student. Due to this, I was afraid I would not be able to cope with my studies and my classmates pace. However, teachers in Bowen always motivated me to do my best. Other than that, I feel I am very resilient and hardworking. These values allowed me to step out of my comfort zone and helped me succeed to be where I am now today. Today, I feel I am braver when I face challenges and I will try my best to overcome them.

One experience that highlights my strengths was during the Covid-19 period. It was when lockdown started. I was in secondary 2 and lacking behind my classmates in school. It was a difficult time for everyone including me. It was my streaming year and this might affect my future if I don't do well and cannot choose the subjects I want to pursue. I felt that HBL might affect my studies even more as I won't be able to easily ask for help from my teachers. Fortunately, my never giving up attitude and being a hardworker, enabled me to overcome my challenges. I found ways to overcome these challenges. I asked my teachers for their help and asked if they were free to conduct consultations via zoom or googlemeet. I also did extra revison after every subject during my free time as having HBL allows me to divide my time more wisely.

In summary, I would say my motto is to work hard and never give up when facing challenges.

Good afternoon, I'm Peiyu and I'm from Bowen Secondary School. Throughout the years of education in Bowen, I've further developed my interest in badminton and became more mature.

I missed out the first year of NSG as I joined Bowen Military Band under influences from the adults. Considering that I had badminton training outside of school, they thought it'll be good for me to continue my pursue in French Horn after 4 years of concert band in primary school. Fortunately, I was finally able to see what I was more passionate in in sec 2 and changed my CCA.

I have sharpened my skills in team Bowen and gained confidence with the guidance of the Coach Alex. NSG in 2020 was cancelled half-way through and I had an ankle injury in 2021 so I missed the full experience as a player in NSG but I went to the competition venue as an assistant coach. It was still memorable because I saw my teams growth throughout the journey and picked up stuff for coaching too.

I'm looking forward to enjoy the matches in NSG this time and head to the finals together with my team.

Motto: If you can dream, and not make dreams your master
If you can think, and not make thoughts your aim.

Good morning , my name is Zi yao. I have a strong passion for art and design , as a secondary school student I took art as one of my main subjects due to my personal interest in arts. Furthermore, I have joined extra art lessons to further develop my drawing skills so that I can express my own thoughts and imagination through my artwork. I loved to observe ,visualise three dimensional structures , buildings and humans. Draw them using different mediums as well as mixing them together and create a unique composition which contains the characteristics of various items involving my own creativity in the artwork , it gives me a strong sense of fulfilment whenever i complete a piece of artwork. It provides me with a strong motivation to continue drawing.

For example , for my secondary 4 term assessment 1 art exam, the moment I completed my 3 templates of preparation work for submission I felt a strong sense of accomplishment. I am a person that enjoys drawing realistic things thus I hope that I can join the design course such as architecture which allows me to continue to pursue my interest and get involved in the course that I enjoy.

In summary,  my motto is to contribute back to society by creating more modern infrastructures and improve people's living environment.

Good afternoon, my name is Kyan Neo.My motto in life is to never give up
My four years in Bowen Secondary School has shaped how I view myself and life itself. When I first entered Bowen, I was not the best student. I entered the school through DSA and was not feeling good about myself considering I was already one step behind all of my soon-to-be peers. However, I pressed on and worked hard in order to patch up the gap between my peers and I. Despite many setbacks from Secondary 1 and 2. Even though my results were not desirable, I found a subject that I really excelled in which was science. It was my strongest subject and I developed a genuine interest in the subject.

My years in Bowen has let me realise my passion for playing games has created a wish to make one as well for people to love and enjoy. I would say my strengths are that I am an analytical person, capable of seeing situations in a more calm manner. I am good at working on things that require a bit of creative thinking, which can allow me to be able to appeal to different people.

One experience that highlights me was when I was appointed as the IT rep for my class. It can be quite difficult having to deal with technical issues that I am unfamiliar with, but it gives me the opportunity to learn some thing new which can prove vital to me should a similar situation arise

As such, my motto is: never give up!

Good morning/afternoon, I am Aeris Yong of 4 Sapphire. Some of my main values in life are integrity, resilience, wisdom and humility. I have yet to find a purpose in life that I'm certain of. My passions and interests include photography, creative writing, philology, philosophy, psychology, and literature in filmography/poetry (literary criticism). One of my aspirations is to change the world through my writing.
Some of my strengths include manga drawing/art, coding(JavaScript > html.), memorising any musical piece(especially if there are lyrics). I am skilled at writing prose and fiction.
Of late, I've been feeling a bit down. I feel very helpless about a certain situation... My previous close friendships have mostly all drifted, and I feel that it's my fault as I chose to cut off some relationships, either because I'm scared that I'll appear to be insincere in revealing more of who I am, or that I think that we won't be able to get along. Or it's just that I'm unable to open up my heart to the people around me. I have many lingering guilt, and problems that I face in life, like everyone else. It's gonna be alright, though. After all, time flies; although not everything can be solved by the mere passing of time.
Anyway, my experiences and achievements in academic institutions include JPAS photography Senior & Junior competition participation, event photography outdoors, and more. Nothing very significant. :) It's best if nobody knows the real me.
I had a tuition teacher who was very enthusiastic about the history of Mathematics, in and out of the subject itself, and this inspired me to find a motivation for my learning.

Hello,my name is Cap Awesome from 4 Sapphire of Bowen Secondary School.With 4 years of experience,I have developed an interest in understanding human emotions.Becoming a Class leader has helped me find my strengths as a listener(maybe)and a responsible person.For example,I have helped Justin many times when he has faced problems of introversions.

With the help of Justin,I actually realised that I could use introversion as a strength.It actually made me understand everyone's needs,and empathise with them.

When it comes to studying,Justin is extremely capable at this.I try to contribute but it is minimal.I am proud of his efforts.

For experiences,I have always been hiding in the shadows.But I think that step by step,Justin will be able to take that challenge.

Thank you for reading this,i guess(im not using eae so)

a very good morning, my name is jamie. My 4 years of experience in Bowen secondary has helped hone my skills in terms of leadership, strategic thinking and planning and more. Additionally, my education path has allowed me to explore many different types of interests on an academic level.

I first realised my passion for medicine when I was having a conversation with my aunt who's a doctor. Her burning passion to make a change in many people's lives has deeply inspired me to do good too. So, why pharmaceutical science and not medicine? While reading on an article about newly invented medications, it had truly sparked my curiousity. Hence, I am very interested in pursuing a career that is related to medicine.

In summary, I would say that my motto is to help improve the quality of healthcare.

I was also able to teach these students how to use the app perfectly using my technological skills and they had understood my tutorial properly and enjoyed the experience.

Having been a PSL since secondary 2, I have experience in helping and communicating with others. I am a very opinionated person and will stand up for myself, while taking into account the opinions and perspective of others. I care about those around me immensely and will fight for others.

My Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) has been a huge obstacle in my life. I tend to overthink and my anxiety has affected my focus and happiness all my life. But as i grew older, I learnt more and more about myself and have grown into a independent person.

I'd rather be hated for who i am than loved for who i am not.
