Hi Everyone!
The holidays are over and now it is back to school again. Hope you had a restful time. For this week's journal writing, I would like you to reflect on a coming global event : Earth Hour. This year, Singapore is participating in this global effort. To learn more about this event, you can visit these websites:
Earth Hour Official Site ~ http://www.earthhour.org/
Singapore ~ http://www.earthhour.sg/60/http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkq7Zady4IQhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkA-2Mg181k
To help you with the reflection, I have listed some questions below:
1. What is Earth Hour?
2. When is it held this year?
3. Why do you think people are organising this event?
4. What will everyone be doing during Earth Hour?
5. What other activities can you organise with your family and friends during Earth Hour?
6. What are the other problems the Earth is facing?
7. Could you propose some solutions to ONE of the problems which you have highlighted?
Wishing you a pleasant reflection. I hope to read your reflection soon.

Entry 5: March Holidays
Dear Kids
The March Holidays had come and gone. Time really flies so fast when we are having fun, isn't it? Pls tell us what you did during the one week break.
I'm looking forward to reading your posts, especially those friends who went to China with the school.

Entry 4: Fire Safety
Hi Everyone,
Fire safety is a very important consideration as our country is experiencing very dry weather at this time. In addition, there has been several fires that broke out in apartments in recent months. How can we help to ensure that fire does not break out accidentally? In this week's journal writing, I would like you to reflect on this issue. To help you with your writing, I have listed some questions below:
1. Have you seen or experienced any incident of fire break out in your home or neighbourhood? If so, could you tell us what happened?
2. Can you describe what you would do if a fire were to break out in your home or outside?
3. What do you think are the causes of fire in homes or outside?
4. What can you do to prevent fire from breaking out in your home and outside?
5. Do you think our pupils are conscious of fire safety? What makes you say so?
6. If you were given a chance to introduce an activity for children to learn fire safety, what would it be and why?
I hope the questions above will stimulate you to reflect on the issue of fire safety. I am looking forward to reading your journal writing soon.
