Dear CMC of Class 1F,
 When should our next meeting be? Hope that the chairman will
organise a meeting soon as we have much to discuss. Also, will An
Jian please tell us more about the Scavenger Hunt?

 
Dear Mr. Hon, Deputy Principals, Deans, Teachers and fellow students,

Chinese New Year is a festival to visit relatives, as well as 
celebrate. I am sure that all of you people want to have fun during 
the festival and not thinking about tests. 

For my class, we are having quite a number of tests the week, the 
day right after CNY. Most of our relatives are in Singapore but for 
some of us. including me, may be going overseas(e.g. Malaysia) to 
visit our relatives as one of our parents, or even both were from 
Malaysia. We need to travel there maybe by coach, by car or even by 
plane(Some of us only). This may take up a lot of our study time, 
and the amount of time spent in visiting our relatives may take very 
long. Most of our families consists of many people.

Although CNY is a time to celebrate, I think that most of us will 
feel stressed up knowing that our test is the day after CNY. The 
Class Test is counted in the Final year results as well as our Term 
MSG.

So, I will offer some suggestions:

1. Postpone the tests to a later date.

2. Class tests can be put forward.

3. Do more assignments in class instead of having a class test.

Thank you.

Good day one and all. 

For those in Sec 2, 3 and 4, I'm sure you all might have already read
this message before.

Despite posting this suggestion up last year, this problem has yet to
be rectified.

For those who have yet to read it, please continue.

I am sure that many of us has experienced difficulty when it comes to
entering thethe staff room via the side doors, even after 1.30pm. (The
side doors I am referring to are those from the Ortus Room, and from
the Secondary 3 block).This results in students "camping" outside the
staff room door just waiting for a soul to walk out of the staff room
and open the door, or a teacher to come by to unlock the door for us.
This is of great inconvenience to many. Since it was initially
promised that doors should be opened, might as well open the doors
from 1.30pm to 2.30pm!

I have read some of the responses last year. I will list them here.

"How will the door is going to be opened?" I get the point that the
main door can be left open because it can be held there. This does not
apply to the side doors which cannot be held in position. As such, I
propose 2 possible solutions.

1. Use a doorstopper
2. Disable the magnetic holding system during that period of time?

"By leaving doors open, you waste even more aircon.."

I know that we have to be environmentally conscious. Hence, I would
say the second suggestion of disabling the magnetic system would be
more viable since the door can still be kept close and prevent aircon
from leaking out. Win-win situation!

Also, I have an addition to the suggestion. The Sec 4s, on some days,
have their recess at 12.40pm to 1.20pm. (on two days for me). This
means that I will be unable to meet my teachers on two days. Instead,
is it plausible to open the doors too during this time period?
(specifically tues and thurs). 

I personally do not think its a hard suggestion to implement, but it
creates much convenience for all. Please look into it.

Thank you!
