Day 1 Reflections by Ong Rui

Today we went to Harmony Primary School. This trip has taught us a lot. We learnt to be more social and friendly. Their school life is very different from us. They plant their own vegetables and even learnt how to cook. Through this, we must learn to be independent and pick up survival skills. Their kitchen is the size of a classroom and there were a lot of culinary sets. They have PE lessons, however, they are more challenging. We had to run 1.5 km around the school. That built our stamina and perseverance to complete the cross country run. We had a lot of fun during the football lessons. We stayed in the New Esplanade Hotel. Although life is unlike that of Singapore, we have to learn to adapt to changes and not complain.
