Mid-Year Exam Encouragement 2011









Exams!!! The thing that all students dread but have to go through... The Student Council knows that Hendersonians, like all other students in schools everywhere, will be undergoing lots of stress during the examinations. Hence, to make this period of assessment be easier to bear, the Pupil Relations Department put up boards in the foyer and encouraged people to write encouragement cards for their friends. Many teachers, including our beloved OM Mr. Sim wrote cards for the students, and students also wrote cards for one another. It was really heart-warming to see such a supportive environment in the school =)

1T1 Mentoring by the Pupil Development Dept 2011





































The Pupil Development Department of the Student Council is newly set up this year. It's aim is to provide a structured platform for student leaders to mentor selected students in the school. A department for students, of students and by students, it started off with a blank page. After numerous brain-storming sessions, the department and its teachers-in-charge, Mr. Chui and Ms Hu decided to focus on the 1T1 students as the target of the mentoring session.

In conjunction with the Japanese Well-Wishes Compilation, the Councillors led selected 1T1 students to make a video to thank the Hendersonians for their kind acts. In the process, everyone had lots of fun and laughter, and it was not hard to see the bonding that took place between the students and the councillors.
