Rinna is our Best Group A Member. Congratulations!

This is our fifth day in Melbourne and it is also the last day at St' Leonard's College. We just had a drama-sharing lesson for two periods. Some of us went to the Drama Class and some went to the Music Class. It was fun to act out the different characters and play the musical instrument. It is also amazing to see how one scene can be interpreted differently, either musically or through dramatization. After that, we had a group discussion to compare and contrast the similarities and differences between Australia and Singapore. We certainly learnt a lot from St. Leonard's College.

We would like to thank our coach driver, Mr. Darren and our tour guides, Ms. Louisa and Ms. Jane for helping us get around Melbourne with ease and comfort. We are very grateful to our teachers, Ms. Mazlinda, Mrs. Raj and Mr. Ratish for taking care of us and for organising this trip. We will always remember our group teacher, Ms. Mazlinda for sharing happy moments with us during lunch and dinner.

We would also want to thank St. Leonard's College's principal, teachers and students for being superb hosts and for their gracious hospitality. We are touched that the school gave us souvenirs to bring home too!

Overall, we feel that the 3 days at St. Leonard's is a great experience and an absolute eye-opener. We will be leaving tomorrow and many of us can't bear to leave Australia. However, there are also some who are already home-sick and can't wait to go back and meet their loved ones. It has been one memorable trip of which we are very fortunate to be given the opportunity to partake in. THANK YOU!!!
