Week 7 Journal - Total Defence Day
Journal For Week 7 15th Feb 2008
Total Defence Day
By: Wong Yew Hoe
Yesterday was the most exciting week of my whole life! It was Total Defence Day. It was a day to remember those who had fought in a horrible war to defend our country, Singapore. There were many posters and information in the Skylite Cafe about people who fought for Singapore.
All of us had to assemble in the hall by 11.00 pm to watch a performance. It was very funny but it actually showed us what exactly happened during the war. There was also a fire drill. When it went off, all of us went amok!!!!
We assembled in the field. By the time we reached there, there were already many classes there. Most of us were talking very loudly. We talked so loud that we could not even hear our voices!! Therefore, we had to raise our voices to speak to each other. Mr. Tan, our principal told us that we had taken 6 minutes and 21 seconds to reach the field and praised us on our quick actions.
After the fire drill, we started to walk back to our class. By the time we reached the classroom, we were already sweating profusely and panting.
It was a fun-filled day and I had learnt the true meaning of Total Defence Day and how to act fast in the event when there is fire.
