Firstly, there are many CCAs (Co-curriculum activities) in our school to choose from, such as sports and aesthetics. These CCAs help us to develop leadership skills and qualities, become more responsible and helpful, and exercise teamwork to work together as a team. Secondly, teachers or students will share devotions and prayers during morning proceedings every day. These devotions teach us about having good values and allow us to reflect on our goals. I think this is meaningful and unique as not every school does this in the morning.
