Let’s make use of this access! Welcome the first Middle School-wide photography contest. It is purely online, and all updates will be on this website. Discover your inner shutterbug. Whip your camera out and start snapping anything that interests you! And I haven’t even mentioned the best part yet: the judges. Are. YOU! After the due dates have passed, we will launch a survey on this blog allowing you to decide on your favorite photo!

Destination Somewhere by Vincent
The JCube Ice Skating Rink is the first Olympic-size skating rink in Singapore, this place sports a 30 m by 60 m stadium of real ice. Slip and slide through the ice to the music played through the speakers. It has 430 spectator seats and changing rooms. It has a great first-aid team. Don’t try to buy a penguin helper for you non-skaters, it’s only for kids under 10 years. Bring your own socks and gloves, it costs more to rent. There are also many restaurants around, so you can eat once you’re hungry. There are 15 minute intervals between the two hour sessions for the Zamboni.
