Teacher in ChargeRosnah Ghazali (Mdm) • It is a project aimed at educating students to contribute to the community • In 2008 all the Sec 2 students must participate in this project • This presentation shows 3 of the many projects.
Project Matahari (1) • 5 of the 2T2 students are assigned to the project, as shown at the foot of this page. • Mr Ooi and Mr Mak are their mentors. • Various ideas have been discussed, including the visit to Old People’s Homes, Childcare Centre, help to needy schoolmates, etc. • Finally decided to see what we can do for the Bukit Batok Nature Park, which is quite near to our School.

Preliminary Visit At around 3 p.m. on Wednesday, 9th April 2008, Mr. Ooi, Mr. Mak and the group leader Benaiah Gabriel went to see the Officer in Charge, namely Ms Ng Kim Yan, of the Bukit Batok Nature Park. She can be contacted by either of the followings:email: ng_kim_yan@nparks.gov.sgOffice no.: 64653365 Hp: 97987425 We took 2 pictures there as shown below. This visit ended at 4 p.m.
The Schedule We have to get more students to participate in the planting of shrubs, otherwise 5 students cannot do much. After some efforts we succeeded in getting the whole class of 1N3 and 3N2 to join, because the students of these 2 classes need to be involved in CIP. We chose a day at the end of Term 2 --- 22nd May 2008.
At about 3 pm, our students arrivedthe destination, welcome by Ms Ng.
Ms Ng, the office in charge of Bukit Batok Nature Park,was distributing a pair of gloves to each of the YI students
Ms Ng’s colleague Mr. Goh Hoo Keat,was explaining the method of planting
Ms Ng and Mr Goh were demonstratinghow to bury the roots of the plant
1 month later, the “lemon grass” and “pandan leaf” that the YI students planted on the two plots of land are growing well, as shown below: Picture taken on 24th June 2008
In this video clip, you can see Ms Ng and Mr Goh teaching the YI students how to plant the “pandan leaf” into the soil. Our students have learnt some techniques, and at the same time contributed to the community.
Appendix --- some information about the Nature Park The Park is open all day long, and from 7 pm to 7 am the lights are on for illumination. In the morning there are a lot of residents having activities in the Park, such as Tai Zi, Swords class, jogging, etc. In the afternoon not many people are making use of the Park. In the evenings, many people go there after their work. There are only 4 workers from 7:30 am to 4:00 pm mainly for cleaning work, and this number is far from being sufficient as the Park is so large. From time to time they hope that additonal work force is available to help. For example, cleaning of their stone benches which are not accessable by vehicles, fallen leaves far away from the paths and such leaves may lead to mosquito breeding. We understand that we have limited time and manpower, so we cannot promise to help in such works. Other works such as pruning of trees, keeping up of the landscape, electrical maintenance, etc., are undertaken by a long term contractor.
