Dear one and all, In a short space of time since the new academic year has begun, students in the Fast Track O Level Tuition program have engaged in a dynamic learning curriculum to drive discipline and independent learning. Indeed, the students have worked hard. When the time has come to bring in the Year of the Rabbit, we have decided to organise the Chinese New Year celebration on the Jan 26 (Wed 13:00 - 15:30), 2011 with catered lunch followed by performances for students to recharge and rebond in Honsbridge. The celebration has brought together the support of many parents, students and teachers, without which, sweet success would not have been possible. Here is a special compilation of the celebration by Mr Dom for all of us during the CNY Prize Winnning Ceremony today. As teachers, we are delighted to see our students encouraging one another to out perform themselves each time, whose talents are only limited by themselves, like wise in their academic achievements. Students are e...

To all the parents, teachers and students, We are delighted to welcome back the returning teachers, students and the freshies of the Fast Track O Level Tuition Program and the Lower O Level Tuition Program . There are now many value added features in the Honsbridge learning curriculum in the new year. We trust that the additional subjects such as English Literature and Biology will complete the subjects available to all the students. We have also spear headed the Honsbridge Enrichment Classes, such as Music Appreciation classes proudly conducted by Mr Brian JohnYim and two sessions of PE weekly. Mandarin classes are also being introduced to all the students. The students have found the Enrichment classes an amazing way to learn and have fun with all the students. The Enrichment classes will serve as platforms to give the students an all-round learning curriculum. Bravo to all the teachers who have contributed to the success of the Enrichment Curriculum. Here are some of the h...

After a term of solid academic training and exam preparation for all of our students. The World of Christmas Theme promised as much fun for everyone as we anticipated! The idea was to engage all the students to set up the booth of the countries that they have chosen. The students were tasked to sell tickets to raise fund for tree planting at the North Selangor Peat Swamp Forest . The Best Christmas Booth and the Booth that raised the most funds have been awarded a prize each. The guests, students and teachers were treated to a carnival-like food signature of the country and fun games in the World of Christmas booths tour and performances from the students and guests. The students have demonstrated what it takes to do Business in the most fun way of the following skills and attitude 1. the division of labour to set up booth and logistics arrangement 2. the creativity to draw up the food menu and games to attract customers-advertising 3. the promotion pitch = 'cheers' to compete ...

Dear readers, At Honsbridge, we have had yet another rewarding and eventful last academic term in 2010. As we gave our best wishes to our graduates who have completed their O Level exams this Oct/Nov 2010, we are busy preparing our next batch of O Level candidates who will be sitting theirs in May/Jun 2011. Our teachers namely myself, Mr. Dominic, Ms. Jenny along with Mr. David are very pleased that our lessons have kept the students on their toes, because the students' learnings were assessed through weekly quiz, tests, games and winter checks. We have also achieved great success with the self study prep sessions of which students have benefited from peer learning. Aside from academic progression, the students have benefited from the weekly PE sessions of which they have played Futsal, Rugby and Captain's ball. In support of Rugby, I have played along with the students myself to take advantage of the fact that the students won't tackle me as much! Indeed, ...

On 7 Oct 2010, Micheleine and Joshua were tasked to verify two key concepts in Physics. 1. The incident angle is equal to the reflected angle. 2. The image is as far behind the mirror as the object is in front of the mirror. The apparatus involved protractor, plain paper, card board, pins, pencil, ruler and mirror. Both Micheleine and Joshua took turns to carry out the steps in the experimental procedure, it was the observation of the image in the mirror that was found to be quite tricky to align with the pins. Overall, the two experiments went well and the fun was over in less than half an hour. The two key concepts have been verified to be true indeed. In the O Level physical science exams, questions such as describing an experiment to verify the law of reflection and image distance is equal to object distance are very common. Students are advised to write out the procedure along with a diagram and table of values to support the answers. If you have any questions and feedback, pleas...
