Effective Communication<br />

Speech and Drama Programme<br />

The Secondary 1 students went through a 10-week Speech and Drama Programme<br />

in Term 2 where they learnt the basic elements of Speech and Drama. During the<br />

course of the programme, students tapped on their creativity to craft and flesh out<br />

scripts in teacher-led lessons, and learnt stage directions and masterful use of voice<br />

with Act 3 to produce an entertaining skit. The programme ended with a big bang<br />

with the students staging their skits excitedly during the ALP Showcase session.<br />

Journalism and Broadcast Programme<br />

A total of about 281 students participated enthusiastically in the 8 sessions of<br />

Journalism and Broadcast programme. With the objective to develop students to<br />

be confident communicators, especially in the context of Journalism and Broadcast,<br />

the training sessions were truly proof of what teamwork, effort and training can<br />

do to help students to become confident presenters. Experiential learning via a<br />

series of Learnings Journeys to related organsiations<br />

helped to further stimulate and spur the students<br />

in their learning. The programme was definitely<br />

welcomed by the students as they found many<br />

exciting moments to collaborate with one another<br />

in completing their group projects. The group<br />

presentations best captured their journey of<br />

discovery of feature writing, news reporting and<br />

even radio deejay broadcasting. More importantly,<br />

such opportunities helped to spot writing talents<br />

amongst the students. Great job, secondary two!<br />
