IFD cum Rainbow Day 2 (by Lim Kai Wen)

This year's International Friendship Day falls on 17 April. The theme is 'Getting to know ASEAN'. Mr Chia highlighted to us the importance of diplomacy and good relations with our neighbours. There were posters of the 10 member nations outside our school library to give us a better understanding of ASEAN.

We celebrated the IFD cum our second Rainbow Day. Primary 3 to 5 students had a chance to perform. I was glad that my best friend, Cheryl, was paired with Tommy to be the emcees of Rainbow Day.

Mdm Nadia briefed us on the importance of friendship. I like the skit, 'The Lift', which featured how residents of different races from the same block of flats broke the ice in the lift when the lift broke down.

The skit was followed by great performances by P3C and P3B. My personal favourites were the song performed by P4A, 'If We Hold On Together' and the entertaining dance by the parent volunteers which won the most applause.

When it was our turn to perform, I was rather nervous. We did our best. I think all of us performed very well and the whole class was excited after the celebration. We chatted, laughed and talked about our performance. Our teacher is proud of us for being united and cooperative.
