Friendship

Do you know what is friendship is? Well, it is when you first introduce yourself to new friends or start talking to them.Soon,you will start being their friend. I t is really easy being friends but it only depends on how kind orfriendly you are. Sooooo, this is how friend ship begin. Friends are for you to cheer you up when you are sad about something or unhappy. If you did something bad to your friend, immedeatly apologise to them.That way, you will brighten up their mode. Friends are also to accompany you when you are lonely.

My Best Friend


My best friend is Jason. He is also my tennis-playmate. We spend time together during recess. When I have difficulties in my work, he is the only one who come forward and help me.



Jason is my class monitor. He is a very disciplined, happy, hardworking and cheerful boy. He has a Chinese father and a Korean mother. His father is working in Korea. His mother is not very good at English. He is the one who translates English to Korean and vice versa for her.




He is also very helpful. He likes to draw and he is very creative. He can keep secrets. He wears a pair of glasses. He does not laugh at me when I get low marks for my test. Instead, he will correct my mistakes. He is also not selfish and is kind and caring.



I wish that I can grow up with him. I enjoy being his friend. I hope that I will be same class with him for the next few years in Anderson Primary School.

International Friendship Day

Two days ago was a very special day. It was the International Friendship Day ! It was the day to recognize your friends and their contribution to your life.


Friendship helps to bring peace and positivity to the globe. Hence it is a great reason to celebrate!


Children from all over the world celebrate International Friendship Day in all ways.


This year, in Anderson Primary School, there is a donation drive to the needy families for one of the Primary Schools in Philippines. Mr. Yazid, one of our school teachers initiated the drive by asking students to donate some stationeries and used story books.


As for me, I donated three bags of used story books and a bag of new and used stationeries. Besides pencils, I donated ten new rulers, two boxes of new erasers, a few packets of crayons and colour pencils, a few pencil cases, drawing blocks and a few sharpeners. I am proud that I had done my part to help them and make these children happy.


During recess, there was a Tae-Kwan-Do demonstration in the hall by a few secondary pupils. They showed us a few ways to defence and attack. After that, a few pupils went up the stage to challenge them. Some of them were thrown onto the ground. They had put up a fantastic performance.


I enjoyed this year's International Friendship Day. It is somehow different from the previous years. I hope more students will contribute to the donations.


A pencil, a sharpener, an eraser or a used story book does not seem important and mean much to us, however, it means a lot and it is very valuable to the needy children in Philippines.
