International Friendship Day

Last Friday was International Friendship Day. It was a special day where children from different countries get together.

In the morning, after the flag raising ceremony, a few pupils held the Olympic ring on stage. Mr. Yazid told us the origin of the Olympics and what the different colours of the ring represented. It consists of five different colors.There were also other pupils on stage. They held many flags of different countries.


Then after recess, there was a performance on stage by a secondary school.Our school invited a few Taekwando students from that secondary school to our school to perform.


Those students showed us what skills they had learned such as: the choke slam. There were “oohs” and “aahs” coming from us. The Taekwando instructors were also there. They told us not to try those stunts at home or we would injure ourselves.


This year’s event was even better than last year. I hope Mr. Tan will organize more or these events. Right now I am trying to master these skills. Hi ya!
