The reason why I chose Juying Secondary School (JYSS) is that after receiving my PSLE results, I was searching for a school which would suit me. I happened to stumble upon JYSS and decided to visit the school website. Looking at the school website, I found that the school emphasizes a lot in its values unlike most schools which have the tendency to focus more on academic excellence. Upon doing more research, I found that the school has a lot of good reviews and all these reviews has been documented on the newspaper articles several times. During the school’s open house, my parent’s and I found that the students are very outstanding and are very confident.

I enjoyed the Sec 1 R3IGHT Camp and the Sec 1 Bonding Camp. During the Sec 1 R3IGHT Camp, I was the only person from my primary school thus I was very nervous. Slowly, my classmates interacted with me and we become friends. All in all, the camp was very fun. During the Sec 1 Bonding Camp, I got to know my classmates better and even got to make friends with students from other classes. My favourite activity during the Sec 1 Bonding Camp was the rock climbing activity. My friends and I not only had a lot of fun but we learnt to be more confident and do things together as a team. We were laughing all the way throughout the activities.

My favourite teacher is Mdm Rozana. Although she can be serious at times, she can also be funny. What I like most about Mdm Rozana is that she incorporates our school’s values in her teachings and would do her best to change our behaviours that are wrong. She will also explain to us our wrongdoings to prevent us from repeating our mistakes. For example, Mdm Rozana scolded me for not fulfilling my duty as a class committee member. From that day onwards, I strived to do better as a class committee member. I understand that she scolded me because she cared for me and wants me to reach my full potential.

My current CCA is National Cadet Corps (NCC). The NCC tries to instil in every cadet confidence and determination. Through its activities, the mental discipline, physical fitness and endurance of the cadets are put to test. NCC morphs its cadet into team players and leaders.

All this would not have happened without the Juying Scholarship which I was awarded with. The scholarship has motivated me to do better in my studies so that I can receive more awards. The scholarship has boosted my confidence and made me happier. It was indeed a great choice to choose Juying Secondary School as my first choice.
