Hostel Cleanliness Check

It's the start of the new year and we have had a new batch of scholars moving into Victoria Hall. Principal, Mr Low has often lamented on the dismal state of cleanliness that some of the borders exhibit.
But I am proud to say that the VS ASEAN and A*Star scholars under me have had a high standard of room cleanliness. Last year, one of our rooms was awarded a prize by MOE Scholarship Div (I believe it was Duong's room)

Here are the room check results for this term
> H1-04-04 Grade: A
> H1-04-05 Grade: A
> H1-04-06 Grade: B+
> H1-04-15 Grade: A-
> H1-04-16 Grade: B
> H1-04-17 Grade: A
> H1-04-18 Grade: A+
> H1-04-19 Grade: A+
> H1-06-19 Grade: A+
> H1-06-20 Grade: A+

Juding from this, our 'gang' is off to a good start and I'm sure we can be proud to be the cleanest group of boarders in VS.

Let's check out one of the model rooms, H1-06-19.
The boarders are Ho Anh Tung and Tran Phuoc Minh

GCE PE: Skill-Related Fitness

With our GCE PE program on the way, Sec 3B was engaged in exploring various domains of skill related fitness.
We had a Skill Test Circuit today where students were tested on:
Agility
Co-ordination
Power
Reaction Time
Balance
Speed

Some outstanding performances were seen at the Agility station. Students were required to do the most number of consecutive double-leg jumps in a criss-cross fashion without stumbling or knocking the marking poles. Dilip Thapa amazed us with his incredbile Nepalese break-dancing.

Dilip's streak of 66 consecutive jumps seemed unbreakable until the determined attempt by Amsyar Omar who inched his way in and took him by 67 jumps to 66. Baik Amy! (oops, I mean Amsyar)

In the Reaction Test, participants were to lay on the floor. A partner releases a tennis ball over their stomach and the participant has to move his body away from the ball.
Naren showed us some hip wriggling in his attempt:

Maybe next time I will use bowling ball..... hmmmmm.
