More opportunities for ITE grad to progress to Polys

2009-07-09T13:59:00.000+08:00

MOE to let more ITE students enter polytechnics
By Pearl Forss, Channel NewsAsia Posted: 09 July 2009 1140 hrs

SINGAPORE: More students from the Institute of Technical Education (ITE) will soon have a chance to progress to the polytechnics. Senior Minister of State for Education, S Iswaran, said the Education Ministry is looking to increase the numbers of students entering polytechnics to cater to the rising aspirations of students as well as industry demand for skilled workers. But he added the ministry is still working out the target numbers. Currently, one in five ITE students can progress to the polytechnics. Mr Iswaran said the ITE provides a strong foundation, and the polytechnics build on that training. Besides going to the polytechnics, ITE students also have an alternative route to getting a diploma. Since last year, ITE started offering niche diploma programmes. There are currently two programmes in the areas of machine technology and automotive engineering, and there are plans to increase this number, in areas such as culinary arts. - CNA/yt

End of Semester 1

2009-05-22T04:05:00.003+08:00

Hi everyone! It has been a while since I last posted an entry. Have you been keeping yourself busy? Hopefully with useful activities... I know I have been very busy heading into the June holidays. Among some of the projects that I am handling include the OBS course, Sec 3 Adventure Camp and the latest addition to schhol facilities; the rock climbing wall.

As you can see, the school is trying different ways to improve the Greendale experience. I've already received feedback from your seniors, the Sec 4s, that they are an unlucky batch because they came to Greendale at the time when not much was planned for them. As such, I do hope you appreciate the things that the school has planned for you.

Of my many years of schooling, the memories that stand out for me are not based in the classroom. The fact that I was very actively involved in non-classroom activities made my schooling all the more fun and interesting. It has definitely enriched my life so far.

So before we break for the holidays, do attend the Sec 3 Adventure Camp and the blog that I have set up (http://s3ac.blogspot.com/). Lets us also have a End of Term cum birthday celebrations next Friday after dismissal at 11am.

Goodbye T1, Hello T2

2009-03-21T17:13:00.002+08:00

Wow. 10 weeks has passed so fast. The term break is almost over. What have we achieved as an individual and as a class? I can't speak for everyone so let me share my personal reflections.

As an individual, I think I've settled in well in the school since joining in July last year. Within this year, I was humbled with the nomination by the Singapore Olympic Academy to represent Singapore forthe 12th National Olympic Academy Session for Young Leaders held in KL, Malaysia in February. I've learnt a lot from the participants of other countries and that event was certainly the highlight of T1 for me.

As a class, the class dyamics and routines are beginning to set in place. We have has some ups and downs over the 10 weeks. I think if all of us put in the effort to reduce the number of downs, mainly by observing the school and class rules, we can have a more productive and conducive environment in T2.

How T2 and the rest of the year unfolds is up to you. You make it happen!

14th February

2009-02-04T13:59:00.004+08:00

10 more days to Valentine's Day.

To some,it means being extra nice to your BF or GF. For those who are not attached, it could mean being extra nice to your friends or family members. For others, 14 February is just another day.

My question is why do we need a special day to be extra nice to someone? Could we not try to be at our best everyday? If we are extra nice one day a year, does that mean we can be less nice for the other 364 days?

Let's make small efforts to make each day pass smoothly without the people around us raising their voices, be it your parents, friends or teachers.

Tear away the calender page

2009-02-01T01:02:00.004+08:00

Wow..Before you know it, January has left us and February is upon us. What have we achieved in the one month since school reopened? As a class, I think we have done quite a bit especially with new members who joined the regulars only this year. I hope you have adapted well into the class and that the rest have been welcoming.

For me personally, I feel starting afresh is much better than coming in during the middle of the year when everything has been more or less set in concrete. I remember stepping into 2T1 with Mr Wang last year and didn't know what to expect from everyone! I think I do know some of you better and hopefully we will have a better understanding by the end of the year.

Do post your feedback or comments because this blog is created for you, so don't hide behind your computer screens.

Oh ya.. I wanna start doing birthday celebrations. Let's celebrate once every two months (so that those holiday babies don't feel left out). Let me know what you think yah?

What is your purpose ______?

2009-01-19T20:51:00.003+08:00

Some of us don't plan or even think about what we will do tomorrow. A couple more won't even think about what we will do next month. Even a larger number won't even bother to think about next year.

If you have not realised it yet, you are in Secondary 3 already and next year, when you are in Secondary 4, your time spent in school will be very short due to the N Level exams. The N Levels will be somewhere in September and afterwhich most of you, in fact all of you should be saying farewell to Greendale Sec. Check out this website for major exam details: http://www.seab.gov.sg/

This brings me to the topic for today. What is your purpose _____?
I have purposely left out a part of the question. You can complete it with "of going to school" or "in life" or any other ending you choose.

For me, my question would be "What is your purpose in life?" If I plan to be a useless part of society (some people may even label it as being a rubbish of society) then I will just make a nuisance of myself where ever I go. I won't care about how my actions affect others or even myself in the future because I simply have NO RESPECT for myself, what more for others...

However, if I plan to be a useful part of society, I will do my best in school, get good grades and BE ABLE TO CHOOSE my path in life. I will not be a burden to myself, my parents or to anyone around me. After all, how many of us can honestly say 100% that I can depend on the people (be it classmates, friends or even family) when I am not doing well in the future??

Think over your own lives. Stop halucinating about what may be in the future if effort is not put in now. You decide your future, don't let someone else decide it for you...

Week 1 is over...

2009-01-09T15:47:00.005+08:00

Its seems like time flies when you are in school. Life is dictated by 30 minute periods.

With so many things happening this week, I would like to share several quotes with everyone. Hopefully, we take the time to reflect on what has happened and how we can improve ourselves in the coming weeks.

"When anger rises, think of the consequences" by Confucius (551 BC - 479BC)

"If you do notwish to beprone to anger, do not feed the habit; give it nothing which may tend to its increase" by Epictetus (55 AD- 135 AD)

"Our patience will achieve more than our force" by Edmund Burke (1729 - 1797)

"Patience is the best remedy for every trouble" by Titus Maccius Plautus (254 BC - 184 BC)

Have a great weekend everyone and see all of you on Monday!

Declaration Statements

2009-01-05T15:20:00.002+08:00

Hi everyone.

As part of the plan to give ownership of the class to all of you, do give suggestions on the following topics:

Class vision
Class mission
Class values (eg GDLS, R3ICH etc)
Class culture (eg class cheer, gatherings etc)
Class code of conduct

Do give your honest feedback. If you don't, then I will have to put in rules etc which you may not like. So do your part as a member of 3T1.

Ushering in 2009!

2009-01-01T00:12:00.002+08:00

Goodbye 2008, Hello 2009 !!

As a new year emerges from the old, let us reflect on what was and what will be. Think about what we did right (may we continue doing it) and what we did wrong (may we try our best to stop it) and how our actions affected others.

Resolutions are always good but seeing them through the year would be better. No use aiming for the sky when we can't even reach the ceiling in our homes! Aim high enough for it to be a challenge and low enough for it to be manageable.

Let us strive to make 2009 a memorable year!

Welcome back!

2008-12-31T23:58:00.002+08:00

Hi everyone!

Firstly welcome back to school. Hope your holidays was eventful and you are looking forward to a brand new school year.

We have lined up a whole host of activities that will keep you on your toes. Be on the lookout for more changes to the school in terms of facilities etc. We hope the improvements made or will be made will enrich your student life further.

Do give us feedback as to what you would like to see in the school or class. We will try our best to accomodate to the request.
