Hi Everyone,For this year, the International Friendship Day focussed on friendship within ASEAN. Making friends among the countries of ASEAN is important as they are our closest neighbours. For this week, we will reflect on friendship among the people of ASEAN.

To help you with your journal writing, I have listed some questions below:'

1. Why do we celebrate International Friendship Day?

2. Do you know how International Friendship Day come about?

3. What does ASEAN stand for?

4. Do you know a lot about ASEAN? Try this game at this website:http://www.ifd2009.com.sg/What is your knowledge about ASEAN?

5. Do you like the activities organised by the school on International Friendship Day? If not, Why? If 'yes', why?

6. Do you have any friend/s in the ASEAN countries? Tell us how you get to know him/her.

7. What activities do you think the school should organise to help pupils develop friendship with the ASEAN countries?I hope to read your reflection soon.

We celebrate International Friendship Day so that we can make friends from other nations/countries. I think I do know how International Friendship Day come for like teaching us how to make friends with people you don't know. ASEAN stands for Association of SouthEast Asian Nations. It is and organization of 10 countries being in 1 identity. The countries that in the 1 identity is Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Laos, Thailand, Brunei , Myanmar ,Cambodia ,Philliphines and Vietnam. I did not attend the school's International Friendship Day celebration as I was at the P5 Camp. I have a friend from Indonesia.But she's a Chinese+Indonesian. I think I remembered her name was Valenia. She's a very nice person, she's kind and helpful too! I think the school can organise a assembly about ASEAN and learning to be friends with other countries.

Thanks,
Siti
