There will be an Annual General Meeting (AGM) on 16 Aug

CHR Alumni to participate in decision making, voting, etc. by

There seems to be no link between the coming racial harmony celebra-

tion in school on 21 Jul and a visit to Kranji War Memorial on 4 Jul

2014 (Fri) by a

group of 30 UG

(uniformed group)

members led by

teachers, Ms Lee Shu

Fen, Ms Hafisah and

Mr Hock to attend the

annual Memorial Ceremony of the SAF

Officer Cadets School (OCS), Delta Wing.

But both have the same aim, i.e., to help our

young appreciate what the war heroes have sacrificed to defend our country, uphold the racial

harmony in Singapore which can easily be shattered by the conflicts at home and in the world.

Night Study Programme for 4E/5N, 4N & 4Ts- Tue & Thu, Wk 3-8

Night Study Programme commences from 6.pm to 8.30 pm every Tue and Thu in the school

canteen starting from week 3 till week 8. It aims to provide a safe environment for students’ self-

study and emphasize school’s commitment to help our students achieve their best. Students

need to be in full school uniform or PE attire. Thanks to Teachers who volunteer to stay back to

provide our students supervision and consultation.

‘ The spell-bounding sound of the bagpipes

played by CHR BB and GB invoked a strong

sense of respect, honour and deep reverence

for the war heroes’, Mr Hock, CHR teacher.

Student’s Reflection: ‘if these war heroes, who were not Singaporeans themselves, laid down their lives for the peace and freedom of this land, what more about us who are born and raised up here!’

Jasmine Heng from CHR NCDCC unit presented the wreath to the war heroes.

Our People Our Music (OPOM) Event @National Stadium_28Jun

It was a good exposure for CHR Chinese Orchestra to take part in this national event

where Singapore created two Guinness World Records: the largest Chinese Orchestra

Performance and the largest Chinese Drum Ensemble. This event that was graced by

our Prime Minister, Senior Minister and few dignitaries, was organized by Singapore

Chinese Orchestra (SCO) which brought together nearly 5,000 musicians and singers

from schools, clan associations and community clubs to put up a record breaking performance.

Dear Parents of graduating classes,

Let us work together to help your child to prepare for their national examinations in this last

lapse of revision. Let us be more vigilant to observe if they show signs of distress. Make time to

listen and talk to them. Encourage them to persevere so as to inculcate in them life-long values

of perseverance and resilience of character.

All students from 4E5 and their form teachers wear different ethnic constumes on 21 Jul to celebrate Racial Harmony Day!
