UNPLEASANT INCIDENT IN THE SCHOOL LIBRARY
My friends and I have been going to the library to do some self-study lately. However, we are unhappy about a few incidents that took place in the library and we hope that you will take action to make the library a more conducive place to study in.
There was a group of boys who were rude to the librarian. When the librarian asks them to lower their voice, they ignore her and talk even louder. When the librarian threatened them that she will report them to the discipline master, they became more abusive and scolded the librarian and ask her to go and report them. I personally think that the boys should be punish for their rude and bad behaviour.
Another group of students broke the library rule by sneaking in food. They brought in tidbits and sweet drinks and they left it on the table after finishing the food. They also spill some of the drinks which makes the table sticky and not suitable for us to use. There will also be insects like ants and fly as the food and sweet drinks will attract them. I think that the librarian should be more strict and makes sure that the student do not bring in food to eat.
There was a boy who wore his PE attire into the library. He was soaked in sweat when he came into the librarian. He might catch a cold and the library will stinks. It is very unhygienic and unhealthy. I hope the the librarian will make sure that students should be wearing their school uniform when they enter the library.
A group of students were playing games on the computers for a long time. Those who need the computer urgently cannot use it. I think the librarian should check on who is using the computer and what they are using it for regularly.
I hope that you will take action so that other students can have a conducive place to study in.
Yours sincerely,
Tan Xin Yi

International Friendship Day
- What are the relationships that are important to you within the school context?
I think the relationship between your schoolmates and teachers are important. This is because without your friends, you may not be able to get help when you need it. About the teachers, they will be only able to teach us when the class is quiet and suitable for students to study in. Thus, teacher must be able to control the class to get a suitable environment to study in.
-What do you know about the history of your school/CCA?
I know that Chong Boon Secondary School was founded on 1994. The first principle was Mrs Cecilia Lee. In 2004 , Mrs Sarapathy Menon become the new principle. Our school mission is "Each of our pupils will be a Thinking and Gracious Citizen." and the school core value is Perseverance Respect Integrity Dedication to nation and Excellence.
-Share a story about your school/CCA. It can be funny ones, successful ones and difficult ones.
This year sports fiesta was better than last year as the lower sec girls for blue house won first for 4*100m and 4*400m. I was very happy and tired at the same time. It was a challenging race as the other houses have good runners from our school netball team. They have very good stamina and can run very fast. I run as fast as my leg could carry me because I was afraid that they will over take me and I will let my team down. For the inter-CCA relay, badminton got fast and I was the first runner. My senior ran super fast as they do not want to lose to the netball girls. Everyone thinks that the netball will win and the badminton girls were determine to win. Those who never run were supporting us by the side, cheering as loudly as they can. This shows that we have the team spirit and have the determination to achieve for the best.
-Have the stories you heard from your classmates changed the way you view/feel about your school.
Yes, it has change my view. At first I thought this school was not a good school compare to the first few choices that I choose. Later on, I find that the teacher here really want to put in their best to teach us what they know and hope that we can achieve good results. My results was also not bad and I get this results thanks to the teacher.

Sports Fiesta
This year sport fiesta was great and I enjoyed myself. Firstly was the badminton inter-house. I played girls double with my senior and she was very good. We won all the four matches we played. The first match was against red which I was very scared at first as there were two seniors there. After that was against green, purple and the last were yellow. I was super nervous as one of the girls was our badminton team captain and it was the last match and thus, everyone was looking at us play. Unfortunately, we came in second and red came in first as their score is one point more than us. What a waste.
The volley ball came in first while soccer came in last. I also took part in the captain ball where we got 4th. We could have won yellow as one of our player fell down and could not play. Ziyan trip over someone leg and sprained her ankle. In the end, we have to play with one less player. But, we will not give up and next year we will win.
On 9th April, it was the track event. The blue team for Lower Sec was Meifei, Ziyan, Huixuan and me and we need very good for it. For the 4 *100m, we came in first and everyone in the team was running like crazy as we do not want to lose to yellow like we did last year. For the 4*400m, we came in first too.
Huixuan did a very good job as I could see that she put in lots of effort to come in second or third among the first runner as they were all very fast. Ziyan was the best as she caught up to second place even though she sprained her ankle and it was swollen. As for me, I was the third runner. I caught with the red house girl after I run for about 50m. Later than I know that she was keeping her strength for the last few metre while I was running like there was a dog chasing behind me. Fortunately, she did not catch up with me. Meifei have very long leg so she run very fast and the rest of the runners could not catch up with her.
The best race was the inter-CCA relay. Badminton win Netball and I was very happy. I was the first runner and we were on lane four. I was very scared as I was never the first runner before. Badminton girls will try their best too to achieve this result next year.

Annual Cross Country
On 26 march, my school have arrange an annual cross country where we can keep ourself fit. This year, we had our run at MacRitchie Reservoir. I represented my class to complete among the lower sec girls and I came in 4th. This year cross country was difficult to run as we run inside the MacRitchie where there are many trees and the floor are muddy. This was unlike previous year where we run on pavement.
As the ground was slippery, I almost slip and fell. There was a sec one Indian girl running in front of me at first. I tried very hard to catch hard with her but it was very tough. Finally, we were suppose to run up a slippery and steep slope where she started walking. I took this chance and ran as fast as I could and over take her.
After that, we came out and run on the pavement next to the road. A sec2 girl over took me and this time, I was thinking to myself if I want to get 4th or 5th. With this thought, I made up my mind and run as fast as my leg could carry me and run towards her after seeing her walking to take a rest. I run downwards towards the finishing line where many people were shouting and cheering.
Over there, I saw many lines and I was not sure which one was for Lower Sec girls as I was not wearing my specs. Many people in front was pointing left and right and when I was closer, I saw the one I was suppose to get my card from and was glad that the girl did not manage to catch up with me. I was very tired and my leg was very pain after the race.
