Mother Tongue Week

Evergreen Secondary School annually organizes a Mother Tongue Week, where we learnt about the importance of the rich cultural heritage we share. This learning process is experential as we participate in a series of programmes and activities designed to maximize our appreciation of our Mother Tongue language. From Chinese Calligraphy to Knowledge Quizzes, we were treated to a variety of fun filled games and activities.

One of the activities held was the Karaoke Competition.

Many of my friends and schoolmates signed up as participants. Being proactive in class, I was selected by my Mother Tongue teacher who requested for me to be with the host of the event, alongside my friend, Zahidah, from 3 Dynamic. Everything proceeded smoothly as planned. Many EVGians actively participated in the competition and many of them were from the different levels. Even Secondary One students took part in it. I was glad that they were courageous enough to sing in front of a large crowd.

The judges of the Karaoke Competition were Ms Mazlinda, Mr Shahril and Mr Suhaimi. The categories for the competition were divided into two: Individual and Duet. The winners for the

Individual Category are:

First place: Siti Nur Afiqa from 1 Integrity
Second place: Rozaihan from 4 Integrity
Thrid Place: Ferryandi from 4 Enterprise

In Duet Category:

First Place: Atiqah Abdul Kassim & Syafikah Zaini
Second Place: Yafiq and Yais from 4 Achieve
Third Place: Siddiq Jumari and Azly Nasri from 4 Dyanamic and 4 Thinking respectively

As the host of the event, I enjoyed myself immensely, and was simultaneously able to glean much experience from it.

I would also like to give a BIG THANK YOU to everyone who made this event a successful one.
