National Day
9th August is Singapore's birthday. 8th August is when schools across Singapore celebrate the nation's birthday. For my school, we had an observance ceremony, wherein the uniform groups would walk from one end of the hall to the other, carrying the Singapore flag with utmost respect, then an animated video that narrates the country's past, and a video of a speech from the Minister of Education. After this, there were class activities, and after, we had a celebration as a school, mostly comprising of a sing-along session of the National Day songs of past years.
