The children were so excited to celebrate Singapore's 51st Birthday in class. They decorated the outside of our classroom with banners which they coloured with enthusiasm.
To celebrate, the children sang the National Anthem 'Majulah Singapura' and recited the Singapore Pledge with pride. Then they marched around the class like the soldiers at the National Day Parade. When they heard “Sedia!” (Attention!), they stood tall and straight and when they heard “Senang Diri!” (Stand at ease), they put their hands behind their backs with their eyes focused to the front - they certainly looked like soldiers. For craft, the children made a special “Singapore Visor” with Yang Liu which they wore proudly home.
The children also hand signed to the song “Count on me, Singapore” and “This is Home”, just like this year’s National Day Parade which had over 150 participants with special needs. The message behind this was to create awareness about inclusion amongst Singaporeans. In class, the K1s found out that people with hearing impairment hand signed to communicate with others and they also learnt how to use their hands to say “Thank you”, “Please” and “Yes”.
I hope everyone enjoyed themselves and understood the message behind this year’s celebration.
