Lantern making competition happened this week as the Honnets compete in making lanterns in time for the Mid-Autumn Festival, aka the Mooncake Festival. Lanterns and mooncakes are part of the Mid-Autumn Festival since centuries ago, that began in ancient China. The term ‘Mid-Autumn’ first appeared in the book the Rites of Zhou but as a time and season. It became a popular festival during the Tang Dynasty as people use the occasion to celebrate the bountiful harvest and to worship the moon. Legend has it that Chang’E, the Goddess of the Moon was once the wife of the great archer, Hou Yi, who shot down nine suns with his arrows to save China and spared one sun to gave light. Chang’E became Goddess after she swallowed an elixir of immortality, flew to and lived on the moon. Hou Yi missed his wife so much that offered her favourite fruits and cakes as offerings to the moon. Soon, people who were sympathetic with Hou Yi, joined him to give offerings to Chang’...

On the 25 Aug( Thurs), Honsbridge delighted every student with the announcement of the Hari Raya Celebration on the 26 Aug (Fri). Honsbridge believes in giving students the strict discipline to excel academically and to have fun altogether during festive season.

Dear readers, Education in the world has evolved so much since the days when i was a student at CGSS in Singapore. Without a doubt, the single most dynamic tool that students today rely on is the internet rather than the textbooks and the library that i used to rely so much on. Nowadays, the time spent on the internet for learning in relation to studies is hard to gauge, as it all depends on the discipline of the student. In Honsbridge, teachers maximises the contact time with the students as learning is so much more than learning from the internet. During the teaching contact time, learning takes the students back to the very basic of being an independent learner. The students learn to take notes in good handwriting on their subject notebook, students learn to have time management in doing quiz and tests. Students learn to be disciplined by being focus and not checking on their mobile phones etc. Our teachers have engaged students of many talent in many exciting projects, experiment...
