Samantha's Guide to Explore the school




Our campus is so big that is a U shaped building, which has 7 floors including Ground Floor. Now let me talk about several campus amenities.



G/F



Here is the Tuck Shop in our school, which you will have lunch and buy snacks and drinks during recess time. The tuck shop has a lot of delicious food, which me and my friends always go there usually in recess time.



This is the Nature Trail behind the school’s building. There are a lot of fragrant plants in the trail, and also several different kinds of insects. Some boys like to go there to discover the insects there, take pictures of them and upload them to their Instagram account!

Here is the Amphitheater in our school. Sometimes there is no enough space for all the students and teachers together for some activities, the Amphitheater is the most suitable place for all of us. The school have held some activities in here for 3 times since the year starts already.

1/F


This is the Drama Room in our school, you will have Drama lessons in this room. There are lots of props in the room that you will always use in lessons. The Drama Room is such a comfortable place to have your lessons since it has enough room to practice your plays.



Here is the Staff Room in the school, since there are a lot of teachers in our school, you need to find the teachers by going in the Staff Room is so hard. But by using the phone outside the Staff Room, you just need to press a certain number to call the teacher you would like to find, which is much more convenient and faster.
2/F






This is the T&L Room, which you will have your T&L lessons here. There are lots of tools for you to learn how 
to make some delicious food, such as cheese balls, tofu salad. During the open day, you can even taste cheese tarts and cookies made by senior form students! Yum!

3/F





Apart from the S2 classrooms, this is the School Hall. You will have assemblies and some other talks here, the hall is also used for choir practices and some big assessments and examinations. You can even watch the Inter-house King Ball Competition here yearly!



This is the lower floor of the library, which there are 2 floors in the library. There are lot of books here, which you can borrow 6 books at a time. You may also sit on the soft couches to read your favourite fantastic fiction. As well, there is a printer in the library which you can print your documents. There are computers for you to search and read articles, or doing research for your homework additionally.


4/F



This is the upper floor of the library, you may see a lot of tables here because this is another place for you to complete your homework. You can do your homework on your own or with your friends, since some tables can only include 1 person, some can include 4 people. It is a good environment for you to concentrate to do your work because the librarian is so strict and always require you to be quiet, this can let me concentrate if I want to do my homework faster.

6/F

This is the last place to talk about --- the Basketball Court. It is the place for you to have PE lessons, and if you are like playing basketball, you can go here to play basketball and practise your shooting skills!

Bernadette’s Master Getaway Plan

In our school, there are four breaks (excluding Summer vacation) in total.

The first break of the whole school year is the Term Break, which happens at mid October. It last about a week. (Well, to be honest, I am a kind of person who loves to have a getaway from all the stress and pressure.) Therefore, I listed a few ideas for you to do during Term break.

  1. Host a party (Invite your friends to relax and go crazy. Forget all about school)
  2. Go to Japan (Who doesn't want to see the beautiful view in Japan during Fall?)
  3. Have a small get together with your friends (Just chill out and hang)
  4. Go out, take pictures and post them on Instagram (Now, there is something you can brag about)
Second Break -- CHRISTMAS! Friendly reminder, there will be an epic party before your Christmas Break. Your class committee will help you plan for the party. I was one of them and the party the class committee and I planned was epic! We had played dodge ball, killer and charades. We also listened to top hits of 2017 while we devoured our scrumptious snacks. A few ideas that you can do during your three-week break. 
  1. Travel abroad (especially places that snow)
  2. Play Secret Santa with your friends
  3. Hang out with your friends (Starbucks will be highly recommended since there is hot chocolate)
  4. Watch Netflix non-stop
Third Break -- Chinese New Year. Time to fill your empty wallets. Let me give you a few ideas of what you should do.         
  1. Go to your relatives' house and get red packets
  2. Eat Chinese New Year's special food until you become a fat pig
  3. Shopping (since there is a sale)
Fourth Break -- Easter Holiday! Time to dress up as a bunny and hunt for Easter eggs, just joking. I got a few wicked ideas that you should do during your one week and half days off.
  1. Go camping (I went kayaking and the weather is just perfect)
  2. Travel abroad (especially England)
  3.  Full your mouth with CHOCOLATE (FYI, I am obsessed with chocolate)
Here are the few ideas that I have in mind for you to spend your holiday    --Bernadette:-)

BONUS:
Summer vacation time! Don’t know what to do??? Don’t think! Hit the beach and get ice cream. Make sure to get a tan before you see your classmates again!
