Kern Hong: What We Have Done And My Role In The Team

What have We been doing:

Throughout these few weeks of discussion concerning this project, we have made many preparations and have been planning activities that would raise awareness among the students of RI.

First of all, we have planned to meet with the press so as to share with the public the importance of vegetarianism and how heavy the issue of the over-consuming of meat is to our planet. We have already made arrangements to meet up with Ms Florence Sim, who is in charge of our meeting with the press. However, we are have not met up with her yet and are planning to do so soon.

Secondly, we have decided that we will have a veggie burger launch next monday, that is on the 13th of April, which will be the most important event of this project. Students have to answer several questions about vegeterism to enable them to buy a vegetarian burger. The Answers can be found on one of the canteen stores that have been pasted with many poster for students to find their answers to their questions.

We have also printed out many poster and have pasted them in every class from sec 1 to sec 4 to inform the students about the veggie burger day next monday.


My role:

My team and I have been discussing with Mr. Yeow regarding our individual rolls in this vegetarian project. As for me, I have been assigned to various tasks.

My team and I, consisting of Kah Wah, Wei Herr, Yong Xien, Cheng Yuen and I have been planning to meet up with the press. However, as I have mentioned earlier, we have not met up with her yet and are planning to do so soon, probably after the veggie burger launch.

On the 5th of April, My team, together with Mr. Yeow had also spent an hour and a half putting up posters and information about vegetarianism on one of the canteen stores. This is a preparation towards the burger launch day for student to find the answers to their questions to enable them to buy a veggie burger for $0.50.

On the 7th of April, I have also pasted the posters in every class to inform students about the burger launch day on the 13th of April. I have done this together with my teammates by pasting information about the veggie burger on each class's notice boards. I will also be anouncing to the school and remind them about the event on the burger launch day itself, during assembly.

Besides that, Kah Wah and I have also been assigned to give talks to various groups to create awareness. We will of course, be preparing ourselves so as to be able to convince them about the importance of vegetarianism.

In the research department, I have teamed up with Wei Herr and have been assigned to research on "world hunger" and its connection to vegetarianism. This will be long term task and Wei Herr and I are working on it at the moment and will do our job seriously.

In addition, I will also be taking part in the final composing of the project report, where we will have to list done what we have done so far, and what have we accomplised. But that won't be due until August.


Ps: Mr Goh and Mr Yeow, Cheng Yuen and I would like to say sorry for consistently not been able to attend the RE meetings on Wednesdays. We have been very busy with our badminton tournaments as now its the tournament season. However, the season will be over in less than 3 weeks time and we promise that we will try and do our very best to contribute to this project. Thank you.
