Total Defence Week: Unity Chain

This year the theme of Total Defence Day is

"Total Defence. It's Personal. We can play a part"

The N. E. decided to ask the school to form a unity chain.

Each student was given a strip of paper to write their reflection on Total Defence Day.

Students were asked to reflect on the following questions












•How can you play a part to make Singapore secure?

•Is security important?

•Does it matter to you?

Each paper strip represents an individual that lives in Singapore.

The strips are multi-coloured to represent the rich diversity that make up Singapore --Singaporean of various races, foreign talent and permanent residents

Each individual paper is linked to another to form a unity chain. Just as we who are all living in Singapore need to make an effort to "inter-link" and get to understand and know each other, the unity chain is formed only when they are inter-linked.
