Tan Yang 4

Today is the fourth day I stay at Dunman High.
Today our teacher took us to the museum of school's history to see the development of Dunman. I have to say that Dunman, this 57-year-old school, has a really colorful history. There are so many brilliant people coming from Dunman.
Tomorrow students will know their grades for A level. Hope I can share the happiness with them.

Life in Dunman High School

After studying in Dunman High School for four days, I found a lot of differences between the education system of Singapore and China.
Firstly, the time schedule of senior high school is totally different from China. In China, the class in the morning is from 7:30 am to 12:00 noon, and each of the break is only 10 minutes long. The class in the afternoon is from 2:00 pm to 7:00 pm. while the class will end early in Singapore because students will attend ACC activities in the afternoon which has many kinds of activities like sports and Chinese instruments. In China, most students have no time to attend extra activities after school time.
Secondly, the number of students in one class is much less than that in China which is because of the large population in China.
Thirdly, in China, almost every lesson students have in the same class while students will change classroom every lesson.
I think the lessons in Singapore's Junior College are very interesting and I am very glad to experience the life in Singapore Junior College.I can also learn a lot about Singapore's culture, characteristics of Singapore students and features of Singapore education system, which is helpful for me to adjust into Singapore.

Back to High School

It was not because I have nothing to say about my JC visit that I have not  posted my first reflection until tonight, but I have got so many things to say that I really have no idea how to start. Dunman High school is really a nice school and every student there is warm and kind to me. Everyday, I tried to know more about the school life in Singapore and make new friends. Putting on the school uniform, I feel like I were younger. The sense of going back to high school again makes me energetic. By the way, today is the start of SC election in Dunman and my buddy is one of the 32 candidates. Therefore, all the best to my buddy~

First Day @ DHS

Today is the first day of our JXP program. We arrived in Dunman high school with the accompany of moon and early beed. The first impression I had when I stepped into the campus is that Dumman high is the school that is immersed in traditional Chinese cultural atmosphere. Chinese calligraphy compositions are tidily hung in different places around the campus and there is a statue of Confucius in the garden of the school. After the brief introduction of Dunman high, I met with my buddy, Rachel, who was a cute and friendly girl. I proceeded to her chemistry lab lessons and I made friends with her classmates. Some of the guys in her class are really humorous and  funny! We then attended the physics lecture in the auditorium. The first day in Dunman high is very short since the timetable of my buddy was not compact. Couldn't wait to be immersed into this new group and made as many local friends as possible! > <

Third day @ DHS

Again when I got up today morning, the sky was still dark adulterated with blue. Today we had to wear  school uniform, since in the afternoon we would have a weekly assemble. When I arrived in the school, we firstly had a P.E class, the teacher was really kind and helpful, patiently told me the rules of shooting ball and encouraged me to join the game. Though I played so bad and caused numerous defaults, but I enjoyed the participation! After the chemistry class, we had a one-hour break. I was surprised that Singaporean students go to the canteen to eat and study during such valuable break. If it is in China, every students will go downstairs to the playground and relax! Singaporean students are really hardworking and busy. But in my opinions, their focus of striving is diverse, like CCA, students consult, study, all kinds of activities. Chinese students, however, concentrate merely on academic study.  As a result, Singaporean students are more versatile than Chinese students to some extents. Tomorrow, my buddy Rachel will have a CCA, looking forward to it!
