Earth Hour

There were about 4,000 cities and towns in 88 countries joined the event sponsored by the World Wildlife.

What is the event about?
It is to raise awareness to fight climate change by saving energy on earth and save our planet.

Did you and your family participate in this event? Why?
Yes, we did. This is one way to save and show our love to our only earth.

What did you do?
I waited excitedly for the time to arrive. I switched off all the lights in my house at 8:30pm sharp, on Saturday. Next, I used torchlight to move around the house. So fun! After awhile, my family went out for dinner. I looked around our neighbourhood to see how many households have done the same like us. Unfortunately, the void deck and corridor or streets lights were NOT switched off! But that night was the starriest night, I could see more stars than normal days when I looked up the dark sky.

What did many Singaporeans do?
Channel News Asia reported that 550 companies and 8,000 individuals have signed up for Earth Hour in Singapore. There are also 1,200 volunteers knocking on the doors of 30,000 households to share about Earth Hour and some energy—saving tips on Saturday.

A volunteer from ECO Singapore, Mr Loy S Y said that there is a growing support and more residents are actually supportive of (Earth Hour).

Thumbs Up Singaporeans!

My Marvellous March holiday!!!

Please tell me how and what you did during your one week holiday. What was the most interesting thing you did?
I call my March holiday the Three "R's" week. It means Reading, Relaxing and Resting.

The first "R" is reading.
As I did not have much time to read when school reopen so I get to read during last holiday. I read at home, at the library and in bookshops at no time and books limit, so cool! I came across an interesting series called "Encyclopedia Brown."

The second "R" is relaxing.
I invited my friends and ex-classsmates to my place for play. We played lots of games like Monopoly, Badminton and many more! We went to Pizza Hut for lunch and the most interesting part was when we went to the sand playground to play. It was so much joy and laughters!

The last "R" is resting.
After playing for three days, it was time to rest. I slept late and woke up late. I ate alot too. It was also time for me to settle down and get ready for Term 2.
I had the most Marvellous and Memorable March Holidays!


How did you spend your time beside doing your homework which was assigned to you?
That was easy, I finished all school homeworks before the holiday began so that I could enjoy the entire week completely.

What goal/s do you intend to achieve and how you're going to do it?
Now that I am back in school, I must work harder in my English, Maths and Chinese to do well in my SA1. I will do more Chinese and English writing practices . I must learn my mutiplication tables well too.
