English-ICT Cross Curriculum "Let's Talk and Chat in English Year 6"

A conference was held yesterday, 27th January 2009 at Sekolah Rendah Tumpuan Telisai and hosted by the school itself. It was presented by Cikgu Siti Noraziah and assisted by Ustaz Marhawe, Cikgu Thedaus and Cikgu Fakhrul. The conference was attended by Tutong II primary schools.

This program involves pupils and the use of ICT to communicate and share their daily school activities with peers from different schools. Pupils involved should be using English language to communicate as part of the program’s necessity. English subject is chosen for this program because it is one of the important subjects in PSR. Thus, through this activity, pupils can improve their verbal and writing skills in English.

The objectives are~

: To be creative
: Use English language effectively and as mode of communication
: Share information and current updates of pupils’ daily activities in school
: Build cross-curricular learning skills
: Communicate with others and present information in a range of ways
: Develop the skills to select and use information in a discriminating, purposeful way

Alhamdulillah the conference went well with the cooperation from the involved teachers. It is hoped that this conference will give benefits and enhancement for pupils and teachers as well.

Mini Stadium in Progress

S.R.Tumpuan Telisai will have its own 'mini stadium'. Construction began at the end of the 2008 and to be completed by June 2009, Insyaallah, depending on the pace of the project. The so-called mini-stadium includes jogging/running track, grand-stand seats and football field.

The workers are yet to be seen when these pictures were taken early this morning. Pehaps due to the wet condition of the field slows down their job.

More updates next time :)

Rainy Season

The heavy downpour that Brunei Darussalam is currently experiencing is due to the occurrence of the northeast monsoon. The monsoon that commenced in December last year will continue right up to March this year.


A minor flood also occured in some part of our school a few days ago. However this didn't affect the school's activity.

Below are some pictures of the deluged areas.

P.S
Parents and members of the public are reminded to take extra precaution as a result of the downpour, taking great care while navigating on their motor vehicles while on the slippery, wet roads of Brunei Darussalam.
