Why the place means so much to me and how it links to my identity


I like this part of the school, the school gate, which you can obviously recognize. This picture means a lot to me as this is a symbol of the school, apart from the school logo. There is a saying that “School is your second home", which I totally agree. The first place of learning is home, where a person is born. School is the second place where a person learns how to interact, behave and to give respect to seniors. Thus, school is our second home. I pass by this gate everyday, but as I see it, it reminds me of the memories of me coming to this magnificent school for the first time. It also reminds me of my J-TIGERR spirit. This links to my identity, which is me being a "Hwa-Chongnian". Being a "Hwa-Chongnian" means having the J-TIGERR, which means Joy, Teamwork, Integrity, Global perspective, Excellence, Resilience and Respect. Our IQ, AQ and EQ/CQ are also critical as it is our holistic development model. Our school's motto is Win-Win, live with passion and lead with compassion. I guess being in a school means being a part of a big family.
