Message To Parents
Message To Parents
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly becoming a part of our children's everyday lives - From chatbots and search engines, to learning platforms and content creation tools, today's students are growing up in a world where AI can answer questions, generate ideas, and complete tasks within seconds.
While these technologies offer exciting opportunities for learning and creativity, they also raise important questions for parents: How can we help our children use AI responsibly? How do we encourage them to think critically rather than rely on technology for answers? What skills and values will remain important in a future where AI plays an increasingly significant role?
In this edition, we have curated a selection of articles, podcasts, and videos to help parents navigate the opportunities and challenges of parenting in the AI age. We hope these resources will spark meaningful conversations at home and empower families to approach AI as a tool for learning, growth, and responsible innovation.

Kids Using AI Chatbots: The Risks Parents Can't Ignore
Kids Using AI Chatbots: The Risks Parents Can't Ignore
In this podcast from the Parenting In The Screen Age series, Host Dr. Delaney Ruston, MD, interviews Natalie Foos, director of VoiceBox and lead author of the eye-opening report, "Coded Companions: Young People's Relationships with AI Chat Bots." Discussion topics include the risks posed by AI chatbots in young people's lives, concerning features such as location tracking which is used to target young users with ads and the importance of educating both youth and adults about the potential dangers of AI companions.
In this thought-provoking TED Talk, educator and founder of Khan Academy, Sal Khan explores how Artificial Intelligence has the potential to transform education by providing students with personalised learning support and instant feedback. Rather than replacing teachers, he argues that AI can complement classroom learning by helping students learn at their own pace while enabling teachers to focus on deeper learning, mentoring, and meaningful interactions. The talk also highlights the importance of equipping students with critical thinking, curiosity, and ethical judgment — skills that remain uniquely human in an AI-powered world.

Chinese Cultural Camp
Chinese Cultural Camp
Chinese culture is best appreciated not only through books and lessons, but also through meaningful hands-on experiences. As part of the Chinese Cultural Camp held on 19 May, our Secondary One students had the opportunity to immerse themselves in traditional customs through activities such as tea appreciation and dumpling making (包粽子). Guided by dedicated Parent Support Group (PSG) volunteers and instructors, the girls gained a deeper understanding of the stories, values, and traditions behind these cultural practices while developing practical skills and a greater appreciation of their heritage. Secondary One students, Ang Kit Han and Geng Qianrou, share their reflections on this enriching cultural journey.

"It was a wonderful experience collaborating with the PSG to organise the Dumpling Wrapping activity for our Secondary 1 students! The PSG volunteers demonstrated immense dedication and meticulous planning, ensuring an exceptional experience for the students. Additionally, the students thoroughly enjoyed the hands-on dumpling craftwork DIY session and the tea appreciation workshop. Together, these activities fostered a deeper appreciation for and a heightened interest in Chinese culture." ~ Mdm Hui Jing Hua, Teacher, Chinese Language and Culture

Mass display ‘Floral Harmony, Peace and Prosperity’ at the Padang
"To commemorate the 150th Anniversary of the founding of Singapore and its 4th year of independence, Nanyang was tasked to choreograph a large-scale dance item as part of the grand celebration showcase. Physical Education teacher, Mdm Teacher Li Xi Lan was the appointed choreographer... Handicraft teacher Zhang Chang Xin was in charge of designing the costumes and rallying help from the entire teaching staff, as well as creating the giant national flag, for use as the heart of the flower in the dance. With the assistance of teacher Cao Han Hua. Selection of student performers started at the end of 1968, with a total of 755 students selected to participate in the performance. Preparation took nine months, with the last three months being the most intensive. Practice sessions took place every Tuesday and Thursday from 8am to 9.30am at the Chinese High School field and the students practised tirelessly. Eight rehearsals also took place at the Jalan Besar Stadium and the Padang. The dance item showcased the rapid development that Singapore had undergone since gaining independence. The drive to build a strong economy while transforming the country into a beautiful garden city was the key message of the item, hence the title “Floral Harmony, Peace and Prosperity” (花团锦簇舞升平). The performance was first publicly showcased at the Singapore Youth Festival and subsequently presented at the Padang on National Day. The dance culminated in the formation of a four-layered cylindrical tower, symbolising a gift to the country in the form of a grand cake. The item was widely commended and Mdm Li Xi Lan was awarded the Public Service Medal in recognition of her creative effort."
