Rulang Primary School

Besides celebrating Singapore’s 61st Birthday in school, our pupils also had the opportunity to celebrate our nation with the wider community through music, dance, innovation and service.

At the Jurong Spring–Gek Poh National Day Carnival, our Choir led the crowd in a heartwarming rendition of Here We Are. They also performed Little Red Dot, a vibrant choral piece celebrating Singapore’s multicultural heritage, iconic local flavours, familiar places, and the everyday moments that bring us together.

Our graceful Chinese Dancers captivated the audience with a performance inspired by butterflies. Symbolising transformation, the dance reflected Singapore’s journey from a young, vulnerable island to a vibrant and thriving global city. It paid tribute to our past, celebrated our present, and looked ahead to our shared future.

Our Robotics Club members also proudly showcased their creativity and innovation by designing and running an interactive robot challenge for residents. Participants navigated a robot through a maze, aiming to score as many points as possible. It was heartening to see residents of all ages enthusiastically taking on the challenge, cheering one another on, and sharing in the excitement.

The celebrations continued today as our Prefects and Prefect Interns proudly represented our school at the National Day Observance Ceremony, forming part of the contingents for the ceremony. It was a meaningful opportunity for our pupils to come together with fellow Singaporeans to commemorate our nation’s 61st Birthday and honour Singapore’s journey.

From celebrating with our neighbours at the carnival to representing our school at the Observance Ceremony, our Rulangnites have shown that National Day is not just about celebrating Singapore, but also about playing our part in the community and nation we call home.

A big thank you to everyone who supported our Rulangnites and celebrated National Day with us.

Happy National Day! 🇸🇬

What a morning to remember! Rulangnites came together in a spectacular display of pride, unity, and love for our nation as we celebrated National Day in style.

The day started on a solemn and meaningful note with our observance ceremony, where every voice rang out with heartfelt pride as we sang the National Anthem, a powerful reminder of how far Singapore has come and how much further we can go.

From there, the energy soared! The school transformed into a sea of red and white as Rulangnites sang and danced to the National Day theme song, with smiles wide and national spirit absolutely alive.

The celebrations reached a dazzling peak with Voices of Rulangnites (VOR), a showcase of incredible talent, creativity, and heart. Performance after performance left us in awe, reminding us of the passion and potential within our Rulangnite community and how much more we are capable of when we dare to go beyond.

As Singapore turns 61, we celebrate not just a nation, but a home we are deeply proud of. To every Rulangnite, let that courage and passion push you to dream bigger, reach further, and go beyond, today and in all the exciting years ahead.

Happy 61st Birthday, Singapore! Majulah Singapura, Go Beyond!

Learning Beyond the Classroom! 🦟 🌍

Our students recently took part in meaningful activities that brought science and environmental stewardship to life.

During recess, they visited the NEA Project Wolbachia booth to observe live mosquito specimens at different stages of their life cycle—from eggs and larvae to pupae—and learnt how mosquitoes grow and develop. A memorable highlight was placing their hands inside an enclosure of male Wolbachia-Aedes aegypti mosquitoes and discovering that male mosquitoes do not bite! They also learnt how this innovative initiative helps suppress the Aedes mosquito population and combat dengue in Singapore.

The learning continued during assembly, where our Green Club members took the stage to champion environmental responsibility. Through their advocacy, they inspired their schoolmates to adopt simple, everyday habits that can make a positive impact on our planet.

From exploring the science behind dengue prevention to inspiring greener everyday choices, our students experienced learning in action, building knowledge, curiosity, and a stronger sense of responsibility towards the environment.

🎉 D.A.R.E. to Connect! 🎉

Our Primary 5 classrooms were buzzing with laughter, conversations and new discoveries as students stepped beyond their usual friendship circles to connect with classmates they may not often speak to! 💬✨

Led by our Inclusivity Ambassadors, students raced to complete their Bonding Bingo—not simply by collecting names, but by asking thoughtful follow-up questions, listening closely and learning something new about one another. Along the way, they put Rulang’s D.A.R.E. values into action through Self-Discipline, Adaptability, Respect and Empathy. ❤️

A huge cheer for our Inclusivity Ambassadors, who courageously facilitated their very first class bonding game! This trial was more than a game—it was a step towards building stronger friendships, deeper peer support and a class where everyone feels seen, heard and included.

D.A.R.E. to connect. D.A.R.E. to include. D.A.R.E. to lead! 🌟

In commemoration of Racial Harmony Day, the school organised a variety of activities over the past two weeks to help students develop a deeper appreciation of Singapore’s multicultural heritage and the importance of racial harmony.

We kicked things off at assembly with a high-energy Bhangra dance performance, where professional dancers introduced the dance before getting students and staff on their feet to join them.

The excitement continued with a two-day heritage showcase, where students put their skills to the test with traditional games like Congkak and Five Stones, tried their hand at sports like Sepak Takraw and Chapteh, and recited the National Pledge in Singapore's different languages.

By taking part in these activities, students experienced Singapore's multicultural heritage in meaningful ways, reinforcing the importance of showing mutual respect and celebrating the diversity that strengthens our community. As this year's Racial Harmony Day theme, "Our People, Our Tapestry" reminds us, every individual and every culture adds a unique thread to the rich fabric of our nation. Together, we continue to weave a stronger, more inclusive Singapore. ❤️

Can students lead conversations about online safety? Absolutely! 💙

Recently, our Primary 4 and 5 Cyber Wellness Ambassadors took the lead by presenting an assembly skit, "Online Also Counts", reminding everyone that online bullying is still bullying. Through their performance, they introduced the S.A.V.E. strategy:
🛑 S – Stop all interaction
🤔 A – Assess the situation
📸 F – Find & save the evidence
🙋 E – Engage a trusted adult

The learning continued at our Cyber Wellness Carnival, where our Primary 4 Cyber Wellness Ambassadors designed and facilitated interactive game stations, while original video skits on Screen Time and Media Multitasking produced by our Primary 5 Ambassadors were showcased to promote healthy digital habits. Supported by our dedicated PSG volunteers and all our Cyber Wellness Ambassadors, the carnival provided every pupil with an engaging and meaningful learning experience.

The message was further reinforced during FTGP lessons, where our Cyber Wellness Ambassadors shared practical online safety tips with their classmates, encouraging everyone to make safe, respectful and responsible choices whenever they use technology.

Thank you to all our Cyber Wellness Ambassadors and PSG volunteers for making this programme a success. Together, we continue to nurture every Rulangnite to become a safe, respectful and responsible digital citizen—both online and offline.

On 11 July, our Primary 5 pupils embarked on an exciting journey to the National Stadium for their very first National Education (NE) Show. Filled with excitement, they joined thousands of Singaporeans in celebrating Singapore's 61st birthday.

The spectacular evening began with a rousing March Past, followed by vibrant parade floats showcasing inspiring stories of everyday Singaporeans who have made meaningful contributions to our nation. Pupils were equally captivated by the energetic performances from over 700 performers, celebrating Singapore's unity and multicultural identity.

A memorable highlight was the enchanting performance by Soka Gakkai Singapore, featuring larger-than-life puppets of native wildlife and magnificent marine creatures. These celebrated Singapore's rich biodiversity and maritime heritage. Familiar National Day songs, iconic moments from our nation's history and a heartwarming opening film also reminded everyone of Singapore's remarkable journey since independence.

More than just a spectacular celebration, the NE Show was a meaningful learning experience that deepened our pupils' appreciation of Singapore's history, heritage and the values that unite us as one people. As they waved their flags and sang the National Day songs with pride, our pupils left inspired to play their part in building an even brighter future for Singapore.

❤️🤍 Happy 61st Birthday, Singapore! Majulah Singapura!

What a memorable experience for our Chinese Dance and International Dance students at the S*F 2026 Dance Extravaganza!

Our graceful Chinese Dance dancers and lively International Dance dancers lit up the stage with confidence, passion and teamwork. Beyond their performances, they also enjoyed watching fellow performers from schools across Singapore, appreciating the diversity of dance and celebrating the joy of the performing arts together.

Throughout their journey, our students exemplified Rulang's D.A.R.E. values, demonstrating Self-Discipline through their dedication, Adaptability on stage, Respect for one another and fellow performers, and Empathy in supporting their teammates. They also grew as ABLE learners by expressing themselves confidently, learning collaboratively and embracing every opportunity to shine.

A heartfelt thank you to our teachers, instructors, and especially our students' parents and their family members, whose presence and encouragement made the occasion even more meaningful.

Well done, dancers! We are so proud of you!

Congratulations to our Primary 2 Rulangnite, Kandice Lim En Xi, for emerging as the champion of the National Primary Schools Chinese Story-Telling Competition 2026!

Thankfully, my parents and grandmother were a great source of support throughout my preparation."
