Last Saturday, 12 June 2010, some of our sec 2s and 3s members went for flag day. ( Singapore Heart Foundation ) As such, a few of them have wrote reflections to share about their experiences.


This is my first time doing flag day, it has been fun for me because I get to experience things such as asking people for donation for Singapore Heart Foundation. Though there were difficulties raising fund as there were many other schools students doing at the same time, but I have learnt that in order to raise as much money as we can, we need to have patience and teamwork to overcome all odds.

Through this flag day, I realized that the younger people of our society were not as generous as the older people who donate even though they are not wealthy. They lacked a heart of love. However, we should learn from the elderly and give our best to help the needys. Other than that, I have also learnt that it was not easy to collect money from people as you have to keep walking, asking around and people just ignored you treating like nothing had happened -- the realistic world.

It was my first time doing a flag day. It was boring after some time standing at the same location asking people for donation. Flag day was fun and at the same time it was tiring. It was pretty diffcult to ask for donation as there were many students doing at the same lane, thus we have to change our venue. The feeling of people treating you as transparent ain't good at all. Nevertheless, this experience taught me that we have to stay calm and keep our smile at all time.
