SINGAPORE THROUGH MY EYES
Although Singapore is small,
It is not bad at all.
Singapore is a place tourists like to go.
It is attractive, as far as I know.
Singapore is quiet,
Without any riots.
The place is peaceful
And really beautiful.
Singapore has a great variety of food.
Yummy! They taste so good.
Chinese, Malay and Indian cuisine,
You’ll have difficulty choosing.
Waiters don’t let the customers wait.
The napkins and cutlery on the table they laid.
Even when there are many customers to serve,
Their smiles never disappear.
Singapore is a nice place to live in,
So we must keep it clean and green.
Plants and trees, all the greenery,
They are our responsibility.
Singapore is efficient in everything it does.
For example, the police are very fast
In investigating and solving crimes.
If you need them, just dial ‘999’.
Transportation is convenient
And it is very efficient.
Bus-stops and taxi-stands are very near.
There’s one over there and one over here.
To keep Singapore close to our heart,
We must all do our part.
How? By picking up litter here and there,
Don’t pluck flowers, but help to care!
I love Singapore.
It is my homeland.
Now it has blossomed into
My very best friend.

MY SINGAPORE - A GARDEN CITY
Several decades ago, Singapore was just a fishing village with kampong houses and coconut trees. Today, Singapore is known as the “Garden City” with many high-rise buildings. Tall trees and beautiful flowers can be seen almost everywhere. “Garden City” is indeed an appropriate representation of Singapore.
I have a Malaysian friend who came to Singapore for a short visit last year. She told me that she would prefer staying in Singapore than in Malaysia. She commented that Singapore is a much cooler place due to the beautiful green environment. She does not need to carry her umbrella everywhere as there are many tall trees along the way, providing shades to ward off the immense heat.
Being a Singaporean, such comments made me feel very proud of my country. I agree with her that Singapore is a beautiful place where you can find green plants everywhere, even in high places like HDB flats. Many people grow plants along the corridors and inside the flats on the balcony, to beautify their homes. Besides beautifying homes, plants in places like the Herbal garden, Hort park and Botanical Gardens also serve educational purposes.
We need to maintain a clean environment so that our reputation of a clean and green “Garden city” will not be tarnished. It is every citizen’s duty. Only then can we continue to be proud Singaporeans.

MY HOME – THE LITTLE RED DOT
We live on a small, red dot
where there are four major races
Chinese,Indian, Malay and Eurasian.
We live and play side by side.
The small red dot is a peaceful and safe place
where visitors like to visit.
Come and see our Sentosa, Orchard Road and the Flyer.
The small, red dot has a beautiful flag of red and white.
The red part represents warm brotherly love.
The white part represents pure friendship.
The new moon represents a new nation,
With the 1st star for justice,
the 2nd star for equality
the 3rd star for peace
the 4th star for progress
and the 5th star for democracy.
This small red dot is where my home is …
this small red dot is Singapore.
