Dear colleagues,

We will be digitalizing our morning announcements on Google slides which provides students with not only audio but visual information as well. 

Please input your announcements (if any) on the respective slides on the respective week and day by 7:20am.

There will be 1 announcement per slide and you may add pictures as well.

There will not be sharing videos as we plan to keep the announcements short and to the point.

As of currently, should you require end of day announcements as well, please continue to write it on the physical announcement book in the General Office. We are looking into the matter to make this more seamless hence we seek your understanding.

Dear colleagues,

The exercise, which involves the whole school (students and staff), will take place on Wednesday,11 January (Term 1 Week 2).

All staff and students' temperatures need to be taken and recorded the moment they reach school. 

For staff, you will use the wall-mounted non contact thermometer located at General Office and record the temperature on the staff list. For pupils, they will use their own oral digital thermometer. 

Form Teachers will then record the pupils' temperature status on ScMobile.

FTs are to remind the pupils of the need to have a working thermometer for the exercise.

Data on both attendance and temperature status will be submitted to MOE by 10.00 am. 

Do ensure that both data sets are consistent. (For example if there are 30 pupils present, 30 attendance status need to be recorded)

Refer to the document for more information on exercise preparation.

Thank you and have a great start to 2023.

Dear colleagues,

Chinese New Year is fast approaching. The school will be celebrating the festival with the theme “瑞兔报喜， 同欢共庆” ("Prosperous rabbit comes to share joy").

Many of us will be or have even started preparing for the New Year by spring cleaning and decorating our homes. We would like to encourage all teachers to also spruce up the classrooms together with your students in celebration of the joyous occasion. Teachers may use FTGP in Week 2 or Week 3 to clean and put up CNY decoration. Before engaging the class in this meaningful activity, please share the attached slides on the tradition of Chinese New Year spring cleaning with the students.

NOTE: Could we also be very mindful to use tape/materials that can be easily removed later from the walls and doors without leaving behind residue scars or tears of paint and material. Let's keep our school Nice, Beautiful and Well-Maintained!

Deadline to note: Put up by 17 January, remove by 10 February.

We hope you have a fruitful time with your students. Thank you!

Date of Event/Programme/Item:    Judging Date: 31 Jan 

Information Details:  

Dear colleagues,

To create opportunities for TSR, let our boys claim ownership and take repsonsibilities, we have initiated "The Positive Classroom Award". This award celebrates classes which put in efforts to make their physical classrooms conducive and inviting in a sustainble manner (not only the aesthetics, it must be neat, suggests a sense of belonging and collaborative efforts among the boys).  We would also like to make the boys think hard about the class name which is based on values and decorate the class based on this theme.  Every deserving class which meet the baseline of our judging criteria will receive prize money of $50.  All classes can be a winner!

Budget: $80 (For both FTs to claim up to $80)

Judging date: 31 January

Theme: Class Name (for e.g. 4 Courage, 4 Diligience, they can use a character or icon which symbolise this value in their design)

Thank you.

Dear colleagues,

Discipline is a core component for effective teaching and learning. Thus, it is important that we know what the word 'discipline' means.

Is discipline about meting consequences for wrong choice of actions/behaviours?

The root word 'discipline' is 'disciple' which comes from the Latin word 'discipulus' meaning student and the word 'discipline' actually is the Latin word 'disciplina' which means to study/learn. To develop our boys holistically, we need to teach, be consistent and ourselves,role model good behaviour. It is not just about actions and consequences. 

Every staff needs to understand and adhere to a consistent set of disciplinary measures so that there wont be comparison and unfairness.

For a start, the Level Disciplinary representative will take time during the upcoming Wednesday Level meeting (4 January) to go through with you the school disciplinary reporting form and guidelines.

Let me introduce the 2023 Level Disciplinary Representatives to you.

P1: Mr Rauf (i/c), Mdm Huang Jie (2 i/c)

P2: Ms Tan Tse See (i/c), Mdm Huang Jie (2 i/c)

P3: Ms Amelia (i/c), Mrs Charmaine Yoo (2 i/c)

P4: Ms Leraine Leow (i/c), Mrs Charmaine Yoo (2 i/c)

P5: Ms Eileen Leong (i/c), Ms Elizabeth Lee (2 i/c)

P6: Mdm Rozita (i/c), Ms Elizabeth Lee (2 i/c)

Disciplining the boys is everyone's responsibility. It is not a situation when things happened, report submitted, the follow through of the cases becomes the discipline representative's responsibility. The disciplinary representatives will be around to guide and advise you as you follow through with the cases. 

With a positive growth mindset, we can make SSS a school where the boys Enter to Learn and Leave to Serve. 

Have a great 2023.

Thank you.
