S1 Orientation Programme
Under the intense heat of the summer, our school initiated a novel idea of organizing one funny event to welcome the newcomers. Not surprisingly, ‘Learning English with Fun’ is the main objective of the orientation programme for the new cohort of S1 students.
The orientation programme lasted for three consecutive days from 20th, July to 23rd, July. During these three days, all excited newcomers participated in a wide variety of English learning activities that included ‘Get to know you and your school’, ‘Game Booths- Let’s Adventure’, ‘Grammar Clinic’, ‘Writing a Letter of Thanks to Parents’, ‘Library Visits’ and ‘School Hunt’. In a word, the carefullyplanned programme package served the multiple purposes of enabling students to experience the joy and happiness of learning English with their peers and getting them ready for school. Besides, the most impressive part of the programme was students’ writing to their parents for expressing thanks for their unconditional care and concern and showing gratitude towards their parents with hearts. The climax of the whole programme was the video show showcasing the sheer hard work of all S1 student participants in front of their parents on 24th, July. It was really a memorable milestone for all parties involved.
The success in planning, organizing and implementing the activities was attributed to the concerted effort and hard work of all English teachers at school with the indispensable help from student helpers across different levels of schooling. With the immense support from the school, the lucky beneficiaries are the new cohort of S1 students who are going to encounter numerous challenges ahead. No matter what obstacles they are facing, they will overcome them with ease and confidence. This is what the orientation programme intended to achieve in the end.
