3. By the end the first month, EVERYBODY has to display the 4'R's -Respect, Responsibility, relationship and reflection.

CLASS COMMITTEE

by Mr Johari

This is a great opportunity for you to exercise Respect and Responsibility. The students selected for the various leadership portfolios would be elected to office for a month and then would be subjected for review. Should the students exhibit positive moral character and performance character the term in office would be extended to a duration deem suitable by the form teachers.

Please exercise your vote wisely. You may even vote yourself.

Reference:

Learn How to Set Goals

What would happen if you ran a race without knowing where the finish line was located? You might run in the wrong direction. Or you might never finish the race.

A goal is like a finish line. It's something you work toward. If you don't have a goal, you may not know where you're going or your actions may take you in the wrong direction.

A goal is something you decide to do. If you set goals for yourself, then you'll know where you're going and you'll work hard to get there. Having goals sets you on the path to make your dreams happen.

There are four steps to setting a goal:

1. Identify your goal.
2. Make a plan to reach your goal.
3. Put your plan in motion.
4. Decide if your plan is working.

Background Information

In the year 2012, Humanity had just discovered a method of safe transport through interstellar space. Humans, reckless as ever, immediately used these means to explore space, without any idea of the dangers that awaited them. Coincidentally, on the 21st Dec 2012, an extraterrestrial pandemic broke out, inflicting many alien lifeforms, and, more severely, humans who, to the aliens, were complete newbies in space. Helpless, desperate and in a world completely foreign to them, the depleting number of humans attempted to seek refuge only to find other alien lifeforms, at least those still surviving. They banded together, and combining their knowledge, managed to churn out an effective form of immunity against the pandemic. Having been dealt a heavy blow, the humans knew they could never hope to survive in space by themselves. To ensure the continuity of their species in this vast and unfamiliar world, humans then made treaties with the other alien life forms from other worlds and formed the Stellar Shield Technologica (S.S. Technologica), an alliance acting as the protectors of interstellar space.
