Second Quarter 2011 in Honsbridge Academy
Dear Readers,
All of our teachers and students have begun the new term on the 11 Apr 2011 with exciting events and new curriculum to look forward to.
Prior to the updates, we like to thank Mr Brian John Yim for organising and mentoring the students in music appreciation as part of the Friday Enrichment. Without Brian's guidance and encouragement, the students will not have the enjoyment and the new found confidence to sing in the choir.
Since the term has begun, Honsbridge has successfully organised a few events namely the Students' Academic Review with Parents (on the 16 Apr and 23 Apr) and the Go Green Tree Planting (on the 24 Apr). To to all the parents, students and teachers who have participated in these events, thank you for making the events.
Whilst all the students are busy learning new material in their Cambridge O Level syllabus, we have students who are busy revising for their May 2011 exam sessions. These graduating students are at the stage whereby extra classes and mock exams are the norms, it is our very hope that they receive all the support that they need to excel in their exams. Here is wishing all the students pass their exams with flying colours.
Honsbridge has also introduced the English Debate as part of the new curriculum, the Debate Appreciation is now part of the Friday Enrichment to engage students in critical thinking and public speaking in an assertive manner. We have been fortunate to have Mr Daniel Berdichevsky Founder of the World Scholar's Cup, who visited Honsbridge on the 6 May to promote the World Scholar's Cup competition to our students.
Students have since found even more joy and benefits in the English Debates and they are eager to enrol as team members to represent Honsbridge in the regional round on the 7-8 Jun (Tue-Wed) 2011. Our teachers namely Ms. Nurul and Mr David have explored many channels to train our students to prepare for the World Scholar's Cup competition. Students who are serious about registering in the competition have been asked seek approval from their parents. Kudos to all the teachers who continue to contribute in student character building through the English Debate Enrichment.
On top of the World Scholar's Cup Competition that we are actively engaging students to particpate, Honsbridge is also proud to advocate our students to Run (5km or 10km) for A Cause in the upcoming KL Marathon on the 26 Jun 2011. As the students' teachers, we are championing the students to raise fund for a cause. The students will not only gain a sense of social responsibility from achieving the Run for A Cause, a Certificate of Achievement from Honsbridge Academy will be awarded to all the students (Teachers included!).
Without further ado, I am delighted to share with you our Teachers and Student Runners here. By clicking on the individual below, you will be able to donate online directly to the charity that the runner is raising the fund for. We thank you for your generous donation. Go for it, you know you have the love and passion to share! You can also get Tax rebates from the donations.

To all our teacher and student runners, kudos to raising the fund of RM500 and training for the race! Together, we are making a difference! I am hereby pledging to donate to each of you, runner. Yes! Just buzz me :) To all the parents and well wishers, thank you for your encouragement and donation.
If you have any feedback and enquiry, we like to hear from you.
