Appropriate Reading Material during Morning Assemblies

Dear all,

Will like to remind all of us on the appropriate reading materials for morning assemblies.

Things to note: (not allowed)
1) non-print materials (e.g. Kindle, iPad, iPhone, etc)
2) fashion and entertainment magazines (for e.g. Her World, Teenage, 8-Days, etc)
3) academic texts, notes, readings

You should be reading a wide variety of genres like fictional/non-fictional books.

Cheers!

SGC GoogleDoc (for your update)

Dear all,

We have shared with you individualised copies of the GoogleDoc, for the purpose of kickstarting the process of data-gathering for the School Graduation Certificate (SGC). Kindly check your school email/ GoogleDrive for the document shared with you.

As a guideline, these are the areas of data that you need to recall, in order to update on the SGC doc:

1. Class-wide involvement
2. Level-wide involvement
3. School-wide (e.g. CCA/ Committees/ Special Events) involvement and achievements
4. Youth Service (CIP) - basic community services AND/OR service learning projects

We will be streamlining the SGC as we go along, so this shared SGC document is a working copy. Please do not change the title name of the doc for standardisation purposes.

We'll have the 1st review of the progress of SGC updates somewhere in Term 1 Wk 4.

Thank you and cheers!
