Here are the pictures from Mr & Mrs Shabir's visit!
Really thankful for the chance to hear Mr Shabir sing live!
This time, the event was held for P1-4 Tamil language students.
Hopefully in the future, we can have more girls included in the sharing!

When I saw the pictures... I noticed that some girls at the back can't be seen...
If that's you, please do remember to come to the front, or side, especially if are standing behind taller girls during a photo shoot!
Thanks again girls, and have a wonderful National Day holiday ahead!
National Day is just around the corner!
Practise singing these songs, and when the time comes...
Sing loud & proud!
Hi girls, I just came to know of this song from our Mrs E Raj..
If you watched Micapella's V2.0 medley, you may also notice that this is one of the songs sung.
This is such a beautiful and moving song! Singai Nadu (Singapore My Country)
Do you feel the goosebumps already? Here we go with the songs practice:
1) Count On Me, Singapore Can Singapore count on you? Show that we can achieve, through your singing!
We have a vision for tomorrow, just believe, just believe
We have a goal for Singapore, we can achieve, we can achieve
You and me, we'll do our part, stand together, heart to heart
We're going to show the world what Singapore can be
We can achieve, we can achieve
There is something down the road that we can strive for
We are told no dream's too bold that we can't try for
There's a spirit in the air, it's a feeling we all share
We're going to build a better life, for you and me
We can achieve, we can achieve
Count on me Singapore, count on me to give my best and more
You and me, we'll do our part, stand together, heart to heart
We're going to show the world what Singapore can be
We can achieve, we can achieve
Chorus:
Count on me Singapore, Count on me Singapore
Count on me to give my best and more, count on me Singapore
2) Home This is an ND favourite. Can you sing the entire song from memory?
3) My Island Home
This is one of our school's favourites, voted by many of you :)
4) Stand Up for Singapore Feel the energy!
5) We Are Singapore (2018) And of course, this year's theme song!
6) My People, My Home A must-sing through the years. This is so important that we have the lyrics printed in your help-mate!
Bonus video: Micapella's NDP Songs Medley There are so many things to celebrate in Singapore, and Micapella's definitely one of them! Enjoy this lovely medley!
I hope this helps those among us who are not familiar with Chinese.
Please also note that the lyrics were translated 'loosely', as it would really sound awkward if I'm to translate the lyrics literally! Have fun singing, and be prepared for the coming celebration! ~ Ms Lin YY~

Spring is here and all flowers blossom
Attracting butterflies and bees
Green is the willow on the shore
(When the) Spring blossoms bloom all at once
Oh! The spring blossoms bloom all at once
Spring is here and the scenery’s great
The lakes and mountains look wonderful
The boatmen are getting busy
Let’s rock the boats!
Oh! Let’s rock the boats!
Spring is here and little birds are so
excited
They sing among flowers and in the trees
In pairs they fly around everywhere
Singing the new year song together
Oh! Singing the new year song together

Let’s celebrate the new
year!
A new year after
another
The sound of the firecrackers
reminds us of our childhood
Let’s celebrate the new year!
A new year after another Time flies fast as an arrow
Looking back at the faded past, with all its pain
and bitterness
Let’s hope that things will go as we wish from
this moment on
Let’s celebrate the new
year!
A new year after
another.
Wishing everyone a peaceful new year!

In this first month of the year, we welcome the
spring flowers
Let’s welcome the spring blossoms that everyone
loves
Spring flowers blossom everywhere,
As blessings arrive
Blessings arrive
And the earth shines with radiance
Let’s tend to the blossoms together
Hey!
Let’s work together in nurturing the young plants
Everyone loves the spring blossoms,
Happy and carefree are they
Time flows by quickly, like the river
Please don’t procrastinate
Don’t procrastinate, don’t procrastinate, as time
waits for no man!
