We could invite foreign classmates to join us during festivals which they may not get to experience in their own country. Or simply, explain to them about the festivals and customs in our country. Can you think of a few examples of festivals that is unique in Singapore that you can share with schoolmates from another country?

It is important to make foreigners feel welcome in Singapore because it will help to show that we are a multi-racial society and because we should make them feel that that they are at home like they do when we go overseas to their countries.

We can organize some programmes to understand our foreign classmates' customs and festivals in their country and also explain to them about our festivals and customs. We can also spend some time to bond with them and help them to understand the things that they are not familiar with and to guide them along and not feel neglected.

It is important to make these foreigners feel welcome as they will feel like Singapore is their second country and feel more comfortable working in Singapore.

We can help foreign pupils and teachers integrate into our school by organizing programmes to allow us to share our customs and traditions and also help them understand customs and traditions that they are not used to. We can also involve them in cultural activities and festivals so they would not feel left out just because they are foreigners.

We must make the foreigners feel welcome in Singapore and make them feel at home and not being left out as they are from a foreign country.We can get to know each other by undestanding their culture and traditions.

We can organize some programmes to let the foreign teachers and students understand our culture and customs in Singapore and they can also share their culture and customs with us as we are unfamiliar with it.We can also have some activities and festivals that they have never experience before.

Making foreigners feel welcome in our country is very important as if they do not feel welcome, they will not help us in the jobs that Singaporeans do not want to take up and Singapore have very little buildings and maids.

We could also have some programmes or celebrations of festivals to help foreign teacher and student understand our tradition better.

We should always make the foreigners feel welcome. This way they would be more willing to take up the jobs in Singapore as they feel welcomed.

It is vital to integrate foreigners to help our social needs. Despite their efforts, some people are xenophobic and are not willing to interact with them. We should be more friendly to them to make them feel more welcomed and assist them so they can get used to Singapore and make this place feel like home.

Singapore is a multi-racial country. We should interact with them and make them feel more welcomed and they may be more willing to help us. We should also let them feel like home but not letting them feeling left out. We should also respect their culture. We can invite and celebrate with them during our festive seasons

We can try to interact with them to let them know that they are not alone or left out.We can learn their culture and also tell them about our own culture and that way,we can celebrate each other's festivals.

In that way, the foreigners will stay in Singapore happily and continue to help our country.
