Today was one of the most mermorable day in Bukit Timah Primary School. 6GRACE WAS THE CHAMPION OF THE PRIMARY 6 LEVEL AND THE WHOLE SCHOOL.
For the Novelty Event today, a total of 8 pupis from our class participated and we came in last. But it is alright as at 10.30 a.m., we went up to the hall and Mdm Junida was announcing the winners of the Novelty Event. But the most exciting part was who was the best in the level and school. Suddenly, Mrs Chien told us that we will be getting the 'Best in Primary 6' and 'Best in the school" trophy. I was pretty confident that we will get the 'Best in Primary 6' trophy but I was puzzled about the 'Best in the school' trophy as other classes like 4Faith and 5Hope got a couple of gold medals too. So I was telling Mrs Chien that maybe the trophy do not belong to us. I forgot about the winners of Primary 3 but true enough, 4Faith won the best in the level and 5Hope also won the trophy. Then it was the Primary 6's turn. As Mdm Junida asked "Who do you think will be the champion of Primary 6?" Then our class went crazy shouting "6Grace!" So Mdm Junida announced that it was really 6Grace. At that time, we went "6Grace!6Grace!" and Audrey went up to collect the prize. Then later was the trophy for the best in the school and Mdm Junida said it was 6 Grace. At that time, I was shocked as I thought 5 Hope would win the trophy but I still continued cheering for 6Grace as Yun Na went up the stage to collect the prize. Later the class that won the prize would stay back, so we stayed back for a while before taking a class picture with the 2 trophies. Carlo was holding the 'Best in the school' trophy and raising it up high.

After that, we went back to class. Mrs Chien said she wanted to give us 2 words so she drew a heart and wrote the word SUPPORT. She said that we won the trophies because other people give in their skills but we gave in our heart. Then she said that if other classes cheered that loud, it was okay because at Primary 4, you do not need to be cool and when it comes to Primary 5, we will hardly open our mouth and cheer and at Primary 6 , everyone will not be cheering as they want to look cool. Then Mrs Chien said our class was ugly as we were cheering. I mean ugly in a good sense like we were cheering like mad and that encourages our promising athletes to get the medals.

I AM SURE THAT 6GRACE PUPILS INCLUDING ME ENJOYED THE PROCESS ALTHOUGH SOME OF OUR RUNNERS DID NOT GET A MEDAL

Today was a really fun and exciting day for us as it was the Annual Sports Meet. Please do not blame me if I miss out anything that was important.


It started off with the school singing the national anthem, pledge and the school song. Then later when Mrs Chien told us that one of the guest of honor was Audrey's father and wanted us to shout loudly when the school's principal announced his name, we were very excited. So when the school's principal announced his name, the whole class was shouting like we were all crazy. Thus, many people infront of us were staring at us but we were not even a bit embarrassed. As it was very hot, many of us used umbrellas to cover themselves, while some even put sunblock.


The 1st race was the 100M p3 girls, followed by p3 boys, p4 girls, p4 boys, p5 girls. When it came to the p5 boys, the boys(includes Remus, Juan Pang and me) infront were very excited as one of the school's fastest sprinter were down there racing and his name was Paul KJ. He was in the crouch start position and all of the boys were very excited and once the race started, we were shouting like mad. "Paul! Paul! AHH! Paul!" we shouted. Zoom! He was the 1st and kept a distance about 10 metres from the 2nd placed runner.


Now, it is the P6 turn and I think we did very well. Si Jia was in the 100m P6 girls and Carlo was in the 100m P6 boys. First came the 100m P6 girls race, and Mrs Chien and I told the class to shout in a manner. So, when the horn blasted and we went " Si Jia! Si Jia! Si Jia! Si Jia!..." IN the end, Si Jia was 2nd and the class did she did a very well job as she got a silver medal. Later, it was Carlo's turn. He was being put up with many great runners like Kim Do Hyun and Glenn. Everyone thought Glenn and Kim Do Hyun could win but we was wrong. We all shouted "AHHHH! Carlo ! Carlo!" and Carlo was very close to the Glenn and Kim Do Hyun who were the 2nd and 3rd runner respectively. Carlo was actually 2nd when about 5m away from the finishing line but Carlo was smart, he put his right foot forward and touched the line first. Actually, the class thought Carlo was 2nd as we were sitted quite high so we could not see very clearly. Then, the teacher, Mdm Junida was announcing the results of the 100m sprint. When it came to p5 boys, Paul won the gold medal. Then it came to the p6 girls 100m, Si Jia was in second position, then we went" YAY! AHH! YAY!" All of us were over the moon as our class got a silver medal. Then it was Carlo's turn, because we all thought that Carlo was 2nd, we are shocked when Mdn Junida said "John Carlo, 6Grace". We were so happy and we went crazy shouting "Carlo" all the time. And when the two promising athletes went to their seat, Mrs Chien shook their hand and we were shouting their name for many times and of course, congratulating them.


Soon, a announcement came "P5 and P6 teachers, please select 2 representatives to collect the NEWater. Mrs Chien asked Remus and I to go down and collect the water. Then we found out that one carton had 12 bottles but our class had 39 pupils. So we were puzzled for a while then I thought "I take 2 cartons and Remus take 1 carton as some people may not want the NEWater." So I took 2 cartons and went up. Sure enough, some people did not want to drink as they thought that NEWater was recycled water and though it was disgusting but in the end, I still went down to talk 1 more as we were afraid that it was not enough for the class as it had to last for the entire day. We were celebrating with Carlo in the hot sun and we were almost getting burnt as the Sun is really very warm. So most of us went to the toilet to pour water on our bodies as Mrs Chien did not want to dirty the place. By then, my voice was very soft as I shouted my lungs out when we were cheering. The next event was the p3 girls 2 x 100m sprint, followed by 2 x 100m p3 boys, p4 girls and p4 boys. But when it came to P5 the whole event changed as now it was the 2 x 200m sprint because we are in the higher primary. Then Ms Tay came and strike a deal with 6Grace, she said that we will cheer for them and we must cheer for 5Charity. I think Ms Tay approached us because we were cheering the loudest. So it was Primary 5 2 x 200m but we must not forget that we have to cheer for 5 Charity so we went shouting '5Charity' and I think Ms Tay was glad. So it was Primary 5 boys, as each people could only take part in 1 event so we did not manage to see Paul running but never mind. Then it was the Primary 6 girls 2 x 200m and Primary 6 boys 2 x 200m sprint. The girls who were running in 6 Grace were Soh Li Ping and Yi Lin and the boys were Remus and Juan Pang. So the girls raced first, I am not very sure who started first so I cannot say the name as I may be wrong. I will just say that one of the girl ran and passed the baton to the other girl and they finished 4th. As I know the 1st runners, I shall say their name. They were Lee You and En Yi I think it is quite a achievement although they did not get a medal BUT the points system was from 1st to 7th so it is alright as we got some points. Later it was Remus' turn, I am pretty confident that Remus started first but he was in the lead but he had to travel more distance as he was in the outer track. So the horn blasted and Remus was sprinting very fast, but one of my friends from the other class was overtaking Remus and was sprinting even faster and finally overtook Remus when it was at the 100m mark. But what really angered me was that I saw Remus slowing down at the 100m mark and 2 runners overtook him. But Remus was still fast and he did not let the rest overtook him. So when he passed the baton to Juan Pang, Juan Pang was already 4th BUT he had to overcome a greater distance as he was in the outer lane, so when the turn was over, he was the last BUT he ran very fast and overtook the last runner and was very happy to be 5th. Although I was really angry, I still cheered for them and was very happy with their performance. But I laughed during the race, do you want to know why? Because earlier on, I told you that Douglas, the guy from the other class was leading and the person he passed the baton was very fast. So that guy, Chia Chih was leading by about 10m so he stopped before the finishing line and jumped over it. It was a very funny scence.


As the Sun was really too hot, the class moved behind to a shady place. There, another teacher called Mrs Wee wanted to make another deal with Mrs Chien as our cheering was really too good. But her class was a Primary 5 class and we already have a deal with Ms Tay so in the end, we shaked the bottles containing green beans and we did not shout anything, thus, we were cheering for 5Charity and 5 Grace.
Although this time, none of our runners was at the prize presentation, there were 1 of our classmate and he is YI WEN and Shanice.The day before the Annual Sports Meet, the students participated in the field events, namely Shotput and Javelin. Yi Wen came in 1st for the Shotput event and Shanice came in 3rd we were all cheering for them when he recieved the gold medal. Then our best run came, the 4 x 100m sprint. Our class is professional at this event as those runners were all very good and fast runners although what they achieved was beyond of our expectations. The p6 girls 4 x 100m of 6Grace came in GOLD and we were cheering for them throughout the race. There came the 4 x 100m sprint p6 boys, as we were sitting too far behind, we went down and cheered for them. But I went to the ground floor as I wanted to get Chen Zung the last runner of our team to finish the race, getting a medal on the way. So the race started and the class above was cheering with their last might. When the baton was passed to Chen Zung, I ran beside him, outside the track while he was running. I shouted "CHEN ZUNG! CHEN ZUNG! FASTER!" I ran beside him till the finishing line and he came in 1st. I was so happy and delighted and I ran forward to congraluate him.

This was the most exciting event. And that is 'Teachers and Parents Novelty Event' and Mrs Chien was participating. So I told the whole class to go down and we cheered for Mrs Chien when she was doing the basketball dribbling and solving the puzzle. The teachers got 1st prize and the students shouted with all their might. Mrs Chien told us that the plaque she got was her first medal and we were all very happy for her.I forgot to tell you that Li Wei Wei got gold for javelin, so sorry about that. So we were all very happy and was dismissed and the bus brought us back to school.

I THINK TODAY WAS A VERY FUN AND EXCITING DAY AND I HOPE TO HAVE MORE SUCH EVENTS

If i am on a deserted island for one month, I would bring the following five items:

1) First Aid Kit
Reason: In case i got injured, I would need something to cover my wound.

2) Water Bottle
Reason: We cannot drink seawater and dew water is too little for a person. (I think)

3) Knife
Reason: I can use it to collect woods by cutting down trees and making fire AND making a spear to catch fish.

4) A Toy OR A Robot
Reason: To prevent myself from dying from boredom.

5) Sleeping Bag
Reason: I would not like to sleep on the sand or on the filty grass.

Kelvin Ruty (6 Grace)

(1) You are alone in a deserted island.Prepare a survival kit. You can only bring 5 items.
The first thing i would bring is the kettle.That's because i could take the sea water ,put it inside the kettle,collect some wood and find two stones , rub it against each other, wait four it to boil and there it is, a warm and fresh water .The fact that when you bring a big bottle filled water, it would used up for a couple of day only! (it may be a very hot weather there .) The next thing is a tent ,(a water proof one!) Well, you need shelter of course, from the rain & the hot sun!The other thing is a swiss army knife,large & expensive . In it,there is a knife that you could slice and open a coconut.A fork & to eat it,in the swiss army knifemay come in handy in eating.Then ofcourse you would need extra clothes! Even tough you are alone i stil prefer to wear something on.The last, sleeping bag. Well definately! Or else you would be sleeping on the hard ground with the thin tent material!


Yan Ting :)

if i were left alone and had to spend one month on a deserted island,i would prepare...

1)A big bottle of water and some empty bottles.The bottle of water would last me for a while until i find a lake or river to fill up my other bottles.

2)A small pot to cook my food and boil the water i got from the rivers or lakes to make sure it is safe to drink.

3)A torchlight and some spare batteries.In the wild,the only light source are the sun and the moon.But at night,the sun would be down and the moon light will be very dim.If the moon is blocked out,there will not be light to help me find my way.

4)A few boxes of match sticks to start a fire to cook my food.And in the wild,it is very cold at night.I would need a camp fire to keep me warm.

5)A windbreaker or a raincoat.In the wild,the nights can be very chilly.Even in the afternoon,if it rains,it will be cold too.So i need a windbreaker to keep me from getting a chill and to shelter me from the rain if the shelter i have is not enough to keep the rain out.

6)A pocket knife.In case i was attack by any wild animals,i have a weapon to protect myself with.And maybe to cut up some edible fruits i might find in the wild.

7)A first-aid kit.If i were to get injured,i can bandage the wound so it will not be infected,it will heal faster and i can keep it from getting scratched by any sharp objects again.

tan siqi

I would bring water, food, a first aid kit, a lighter and a jacket. I need water and food so that I can survive. I need the First Aid Kit in case I get hurt, I can bandage my wounds.I can use the lighter to cook my food and I can use the jacket in case it becomes very cold at night.
