Touchstone Assembly

Hurray! Tomorrow, there will be an assembly so that we will get to unveil the touchstone out to the ENTIRE school. I am so excited about this assembly because I am part of the team that help create this touchstone.

A touchstone was used for mining and for to see if people were counterfeit in the olden days. The touchstone is made out of slate and the miners would strike the piece of ore on the touchstone to see if it was copper, silver, gold... In the olden days, it was used to see if the gold or silver coins were made out of pure silver or pure gold. If we put it into our perspective, the touchstone means to check our true values, beliefs of our own school. This is the true meaning of our touchstone... isn't it a powerful metaphor?

I need help...

I stayed home today because I have a project to do. I have to make a can holder that would be able to keep a can of pop very cold for a very long time. I am still thinking of a more efficient idea. Can anyone help me?

I know that Florence has to do another operation since the cancer has gone into her liver. I hope that this will be the very last time she has to do treatment. Florence... remember that we are always there to support you through the whole journey even if we are so far apart!

Badminton Rockz




I went to a community centre yesturday to play badminton. I even got to try out my new badminton racquet: Arcsaber 10. I think that I need more power to swing than my older racquet. Since it is like a year until I play badminton, my arm is feeling very sore today. Doesn't my new racquet look cool?




Chinese New Year to you all! Hope that you will have a terrific year of the OX!

Touchstone Workshop

Yeah! Time to go back to school again. The workshops is starting today and I can't wait until it is my turn to do it. Today, I got to help another group and my friend and I got to look after the washrooms to make sure it won't get dirty by the paint. Also, I got to do the announcements for the school about the workshop, I think that it is pretty awesome to get such a good job!

The colour of the paint is blue and i think that it is starting to look pretty cool. I wonder what colour shade of blue when it is our turn?
