Singapore commemorates Total Defence Day on 15 February, the day when Singapore fell to the Japanese in 1942 during World War II. This is to remind Singaporeans that we should not take our current security and sucess for granted. This year, Total Defence Day falls on the second day of Chinese New Year. The historical significance of the date is Singapore fell to Japan on the first day of Chinese New Year in 1942.
During recess on 15 February, we carried out our food rationing exercise. Each pupil was given a bowl of porridge. At the field, pupils get a chance to do simple obstacle courses.
