MATHS IS FUN!

Solve this...

Mary looked out of her farmhouse window and saw a group of pigeons and donkeys passing by. She counted all the legs of the pigeons and donkeys and found that the total number of legs add up to 66. How many of each kind of animals (pigeons and donkeys) passed by her window if the total number of animals is 24?

Respond in my comments column. The first to give the correct answer gets a "student Start".

Welcome the year of Ox...!

Dear all,

First & Foremost …..

HAPPY 牛 YEAR 2009 !!!!


We had a memorable Chinese New Year celebration in school on Friday. I was fascinated by the impressive magic acts performed by Jimmy. He's simply amazing, wasn't he? We must really thank and applaud the Chinese Department for planning such a great show for us.

Chinese New Year has always been one of my most anticipated celebrations. It is a time for reaffirming family and kinship ties. My hubby and I started the spring cleaning of my home even weeks before the festival, hoping that the house is spick and span for the New Year. I also went around looking for cute looking and meaningful spring couplets to decorate my home in hope of obtaining good fortune in the coming year. And definitely not forgetting the new year goodies, such as pinapple tarts and love letters. Finally, just when we had prepared everything ready to welcome the year of the Ox, Mdm Phua had fallen sick. However, I felt much better on the New Year Eve. My hubby and I had reunion dinner in my in-law's house.
Afterwhich, we went to the temple to pray for prosperity, good fortune and blessings from the God.

On the first 2 days of Chinese New Year, my hubby and I were rather occupied and busy with the visiting. In accordance with the Chinese tradition of paying due respect to age and seniority, it is the practice for us to present New Year gifts to our parents and their elders. In addition, as a married couple, we have to give red packets to the children and those who are not married. Though we do not have time to rest well, we have a memorable new year.

Hereby, I would like to wich everyone of you all the best for the Year 2009, with great love, success, blessings, happiness, wealth, friendship and good health.

May the New Year 2009 be as bright and shining as the fireworks !

Best wishes,

T1 W2 Journal Writing : School's Vision, Mission and Values

Hi Everyone,
Mr Tan mentioned the school's vision, mission and values on the first day of school. In this week's reflection, I would like you to show me whether you remember the school's vision, mission and values and to give your views about them. To help with your reflection, I have listed some questions below:
1. What are the school's vision, mission and values?
2. What do you think of the school's vision, mission and values?
3. Do you believe in the school values? If 'yes' or 'no', why?

4. Do students think of the school values when engaging in activities in school or outside? If so, how?
5. How can you, as students, live up to the school values?
6. What activities do you think the teachers can organise in class and in school to help students learn the values?

I look forward to reading your views soon.

Regards,
Cyber Queen

Welcome

Hi Everybody,

A very happy new year to one and all. Welcome to our 4.4 class blog - Cyber Haven 'Children of the Futeristic World'. I would like to welcome Ramalingam to our class. I believe he is no stranger to all of you as Ramlingam was from Primary 3.2 last year.

As this is the start of the new year, I am as excited as you. I hope this year will be a year full of great exciting learning experiences for both you and me. Work hard and you are on the way to the road of success...

Best Wishes,
Mdm Phua
