As I pursued this Diploma in Early Childhood Development & Education (ECDE), it has allowed me to deepen my understanding and knowledge on children, learning about their different developmental needs and how to effectively support them through purposeful activities and lessons.
The 2 practicum attachments and 6-months internship also allowed me to apply what I have learnt during the different modules over the span of my polytechnic school life. These experiences helped me to be a better educator as I learnt to reflect, and most importantly, learning how to adapt and cater to the different needs of the children.

CCA: Choir
I joined the IJ Choir in Primary 3, when I first entered CHIJ Primary, as I had transferred from my previous school. This was a CCA which was not available in my previous school, and because I had a passion for singing and performing, I signed up to audition and eventually got in.
Throughout my 4 years in IJ Choir, I had to opportunity to participate in 1 SYF Showcase, where we won Distinction, and the opportunity to go to Malacca with other IJ Choirs to perform and compete with each other. This was my favourite memory of primary school, as I was able to do what I really loved, and to do what I was passionate about.
