"We Are Girls From RGPS!"

Hey people, i was doing some newspaper cutting and i came across this article!


My primary school wins award for excellence! along with njc and tjc! quite cool. Reading the article brought back a lot of fun memories too!

If you read the article, it says that "when some (students) complained about the glaring sunlight, affected classes were given $100 each to put curtains up". That is true! We have this suggestion box thingy...at least in my time it's call that, and we were encouraged to pen down whatever we feel can be improved and drop it in the box. Our principal (the old principal) herself will look into those issues. And small issues like the curtain one will be 'settled' almost immediately. Very efficient.

And about the cooking classes, yes we have cooking classes! my new principal (Ms Tan) implemented it when i was in p6. I remember making my very own pizza bread! haha

This is another article found in Today. That is my new principal. She's the one who changed our sharp metal badge to the round ones and now the cloth ones! I personally like the metal badge more...looks cooler! i dunno why some girls will scratch their face (scratched by the badge) while changing out and in of the pinafores...and it's always the same few -_-" thanks to them we cannot wear those beautiful badges anymore. And nope...during my time, we didn't have to wear name tags.

I actually went to my school's website and found this!!!! My school song! hahaha! and if you are interested you can listen to it here.

I dunno if every school will sing the courtesy song, but every monday we must sing this courtesy song:

Courtesy Coorperation~

Carefulness Consideration ~~

good behaviour (through the school / to rule the school) <-- not sure ~~

that will be our golden rule!

And it will really drive our principal mad when some girls go and clap in between! haha

Right er jie? da jie? and stef? haha so funny come to think of it!

Once in like primary 1 or 2 my classmates and i were sitting together (like the pic above) for art lessons...and i had my drawing paper on my lap...and i was happily cutting shapes out of the drawing paper just to realise that besides cutting my drawing paper, i also cut my pinafore!!!! yes, there were holes in my pinafore...my mum had to stitch the holes up.

And my belt is sewed to my pinafore...because a couple of times i forgot to take my belt after ballet classes, so my mum sewed it there - stuck there permanently! it's pretty sad especially when my friends take out their belts and starts folding beautiful roses with their belt...quite lame i know, but back then, that was the IN thing.

Anywayz...shall upload some of my own primary school picture to show you guys how lame i look back then ... and yes, er jie your pictures too! LOL! woo hoo...and i will also tell you all the stupid things we did on the school bus :)

Stay tuned...

Ps. on top of all the many things i am suppose to blog about haha
