Dear Padlet,
Today was such an exciting day!
Today was Track and Field Meet!
We sat in our various Houses--- Blue, Black,Green,Yellow and Red
Then we watched the House Captains with their Various Logos
My House's , which was Yellow House, logo was Griffin
My friend who was beside me laughed as he joked,"Looks like yellow house is the next Hogwarts, Don't be the next Harry Potter now, haha"
Green House's logo was dragon, Black's was unicorn, Blue was Pegasus and Red was Phoenix
After every event, We found ourselves in 4th position while Blue was the champion
Although we did not clinch a place in the Top 3 , We were proud ourselves.
Each House than did their cheers before moving on to the Award Ceremony
After that we sang our School Song and did one last cheer before parting ways
To celebrate despite our positions, my friend and I Ate and Clementi Mall before making our way home
Regards,
Shaun Ho

Dear Padlet,
Today was not bad
We had a Student Counsellor session with our SC seniors
We first went through icebreakers before doing some activities.
Through that session I learnt a lot about Priority and Management
After that, we went for a short Celebration of Learning briefing to update us where we were stationed at.
Oh no! I forgot that you do not know what this celebration of learning is about
Silly me! Well, Celebration of Learning is a programme that Secondary 1 & 2 have to display their work and share about their chosen subject.
(My chosen subject is ADMT which stands for Art, Design, Media and Technology!)
Parents and siblings can come and learn more from us and gather information about what do we do
After the briefing, my group and I went to meet our ADMT teacher--Ms Neubronner.
Ms Neubronner gave us advice on our slides then we did a dry run for her to comment on the good points and bad points about our presentation
Regards,
Shaun Ho

Dear Padlet,
Today I have learnt a very important lesson, never anger the Geography teachers and always hand up the work they assigned
Our class was the last class to arrive for the Geography briefing so we got an earful of scolding by the teachers.
The teachers were long, stern and fierce.
At first glance we could tell Geography was going to be torture as soon as they started the briefing.
Both teachers were very very fierce and had very high expectation.
They wanted us to have all work but no play during the June Holidays by saying that only lazy people relax and play while hardworking people are the one studying or reading or working only.
They were so stern that everyone obeyed the teachers every command.
By the end of the briefing, I could tell that everyone who attended the briefing was scared, anxious and angry.
To take my mind of this horrendous matter, I went to relax by attending my CCA.
Luckily for you Padlet my coach forgot how many push ups he wanted us to do so we just did 20.
That's why I can write on time, lucky you Padlet ;)
Regards,
Shaun Ho

Dear Padlet,
Today was an exhausting day!
It was pure bad luck to have:
1)Release of all results
2)GCP meeting
3)CCA
All in one day!
I was very worried about my History paper since it was so difficult and I almost did not complete the paper on time!
My heart was in my throat as my History Teacher handed out the History paper.
With sweaty palms I flipped open the paper
I whooped in joy on the inside upon seeing that I passed, even though it was just a borderline pass, I was partially satisfied.
Most of my classmates unfortunately failed by just 1 or 2 marks which made me pity them.
My other subjects were also  average too
Next Lek Heng, Teng Jun, Silas and I went to attend our Ho Chim Min GCP briefing
However Mr Ng, was no where in sight for 1 Whole Hour!
I was impatient as I had to attend CCA soon
Finally he arrived. Turns out he mistook todays briefing as tomorrow so he was completely unaware of our presence
Thankfully to make up for him being late, he dismissed the batch of students early and I was not late for my CCA!
My CCA was tiring and I was exhausted
To make things worse my coach instructed us to do Many Push Ups Tomorrow
So Padlet, if I don't write my reflection on time tomorrow, I blame my CCA and Push Ups :I

Dear Padlet,
At the start of the day, I was having butterflies in my stomach.
Why?
Because today is the day most of our examination results would be released!
Throughout my train ride to school I felt very uneasy and escaped the nausea with my mobile phone game.
Finally after a bumpy ride, I reached school.
I shuffled my feet to class, hoping time would slow down as I made my way to class as slow as a snail.
Glancing at the timetable, I felt dread grabbing me by the throat, the first lesson was Mother Tongue!
With my heavy heart, I walked into the classroom.
The teacher started to give out our test papers.
As soon as those papers landed on my paper, I shut my eyes and flipped the paper around, not daring to give a little peek.
Slowly and cautiously, I flipped the back page.
I thought, "Not bad" I flipped it again, the marks shown were devastating.
My heart was in my throat and the only thing I could think of was did I pass or fail!
Fear engulfed me but I mustered all my courage and finally opened the paper.
I gave an audible sigh of relieve immediately. I passed!
Although I did not do as well as others, I was quite satisfied.
As the day dragged on I learnt that all the marks given were border line passes.
Fortunately I did not fail a single subject or paper so far and I plan to keep it that way.
But I can already picture my mom's sour face as she listens to me revealing my marks.

Shaun Ho

Dear Padlet,
It is Mothers Day today!
My brother and I have been waiting earnestly for this special occasion that commemorates to allow children to thank their mother for raising them from young to old.
We woke up early in the morning and did the house chores so that our mother need not drag her exhausted body from bed to do our back-breaking chores.
The task was laborious and through this I understood the hardships my mother had went through for us.
By the time we were finished we were sweating like pigs!
When our mother woke up, she was delighted to see the house was nearly spotless.
Both my brother and I took out our Mother's Day Gift and merrily cried,"Happy Mother's Day"
Our father then took us to a water theme park to celebrate mother's day.
I had a whale of a time at the water park and enjoyed playing with my entire family together!
Regards,
Shaun Ho

Dear Padlet,
It is a weekend and exams are finally over!
I was anxious about my results, but as soon as I woke up, those thoughts were immediately thrown to the back of my mind.
At long last, I was able to play my mobile phone, it seemed like I could never get a break from those torturous examinations that caused me so much stress.
Hours past by as I enjoyed the peace and quiet while I gamed on my mobile phone.
After my enjoyment of my handphone, I went to snack on some chips.
My mother then made a scrumptious meal that made me and my brother's mouths water.
My brother and I then went to the nearby park to take a breather and have some fun.
Before I knew it, it was time for dinner, my parents brought me out to eat to celebrate this occasion.
Regards,
Shaun Ho

Dear Padlet,
My friends and I went to Seletar Golf Course today!
At the golf course, I learnt that there were many different types of golf clubs and there were even numbers on them!
The coach taught us how to hold and swing the golf club properly. Somehow an amateur like me did pretty well!
Of course compared to people like Kit Hint who had been playing golf for a long time I felt like rubbish.
Next, we went on to the next section of golf, putting!
We divided ourselves back to our groups and started to putt the ball into the hole.
Even though my team did not make it to the finals in our friendly tournament, I still enjoyed myself at the putting mat.
At the end of the day, the coach did a summary with us about what we did and shared with us one fact that I completely did not know about and that is
Golf stands for----------------------------Gentlemen
Only
Ladies
Forbidden
That was because in the olden days, golf balls and clubs were made of wood so they were very heavy.Thus only the strong men could play this sport.
I learnt many facts about golf today and it was the first time I ever played golf!
I hope the school would organise such fun activities again in the future

Shaun Ho
