This week is the sabbatical week for the entire Zhenghua Secondary School. Although there's no classroom teaching for the whole week, the teachers had been organizing the events for the entire week and they had really put in a lot of effort for the students to have a good break, recharge and get ready for the coming challenges.
I was very fortunate to be involved in the activities. On Monday, it was a half-day, the teachers and the students were able to leave school at 10.45am. On Tuesday, it was the Urban Challenge day, the entire school had a run at Japanese and Chinese garden. The Secondary Two students went to Malacca on Wednesday and Thursday.
On Thursday, I was allocated to go to Forest Adventure with the 4N students and I was very lucky to be able to join in the activities! The challenging and physically demanding activities really pushed our minds to the limits and were a test to our courage. I was glad to have gone through the entire course although it left me with serious aches and bruises.
On Friday, it was the sandcastle building day! It was really a fun event! It was held at East Coast Park and there are professional sandcastle builders who coached us in building solid aandcastles. It was really about teamwork and cooperation and I hope that the students have learnt something while having fun.
All in all, I believe that the different activities held for the students have benefited them in a way or another, and that the memories created would be their precious shared memories.
