Never give up!

Dear all,

Never give up even if you have not done well. The worst that you can do is to give up totally and decide you do not want to try again. In life, we will meet many obstacles. No one is perfect. No one can sustain greatness all the time. We will meet roadblocks. But through these, we learn to improve. We learn that if we fall again, we will pick ourselves up and try again, knowing that one day we will meet our target and reach the end point where we want to be.

So bear this question in mind.

WHERE DO YOU SEE YOURSELVES AT SA1?

WHERE DO YOU SEE YOURSELVES AT THE END OF P5?

WHERE DO YOU SEE YOURSELVES AT THE END OF P6?

Start aiming now. Start making your dreams come true.

RULE #1. We are a family.

As such, we are in this together. I am not going to stop until I achieve my 100% passes at least! Then we can all plan to progress to aiming for our Bs and hopefully, As. It can be done.

Take Alan as a good example. He has achieved his results because of his hard work. He is conscientious, always asks questions and takes pride in his daily work. He is never late with work and he does it constantly.

Everyone can do well if they are willing to give their 100% best effort (RULE #5)

The rules help you to remind yourselves that dreams can come true. Results can be achieved if you are willing to go the extra mile. Never regret, so give your best. Let CA1 be your wake up call if you have not done well.

The transition from P4 to P5 is not easy indeed. Topics get more difficult. New components are tested. All the more, you need to put in effort. Even if I do not follow you up to P6, I do hope to see all of you being proud of their 6 years of school life and to come running to me on the day of your PSLE results to tell me you have achieved your targets.

You have only 3 terms left to pull up your socks and strive for your best. In 3 terms, you will be facing PSLE and the journey to the next level.

I will end off here with a short fable and one that you are familiar of.

The Hare was once boasting of his speed before the other animals. "I have never yet been beaten," said he, "when I put forth my full speed. I challenge any one here to race with me."

The Tortoise said quietly, "I accept your challenge."

"That is a good joke," said the Hare; "I could dance round you all the way."

"Keep your boasting till you've beaten," answered the Tortoise. "Shall we race?"

So a course was fixed and a start was made. The Hare darted almost out of sight at once, but soon stopped and, to show his contempt for the Tortoise, lay down to have a nap. The Tortoise plodded on and plodded on, and when the Hare awoke from his nap, he saw the Tortoise just near the winning-post and could not run up in time to save the race. Then said the Tortoise: Perseverance wins the race!

If you persevere and put in hard work, rewards will come to you eventually. :)
