SECONDARY 1E2 SUNGEI BULOH TRIP SUMMARY
Done By: Suthan Selvam
Leddin Tan
My first impression about this trip was that it would be very boring with us receiving the biggest treatment: Mosquito bites. The trip proved how wrong I was. We went there and were treated to a pungent smell of mosquito repellent in the air. Then Miss Poh distributed all the necessary items like all the pails and the disposable cups. Then, we set off. Well, the first part already proved wrong and I was grumbling all the way but didn’t show my attitude. We were asked to measure the pH value of the water there. I cheered up a bit, but my spirits were dampened after it rained.
We were asked to go to Platform 1 to collect seawater and to compare our results. The walk was boring, but the scenery was excellent. I particularly enjoyed staring, taking in the cool breeze and just looking at the vast body of the ocean. After collecting the seawater, the teachers allowed us to roam around Platform 1, but obviously around it. I got my fair share of watching some long beak fishes and was very amazed at the tranquility of the area. The long beak fishes were quite nice to look at, their bright bottle-green mouths or their beaks, as the teachers call it. There were many mangroves, their roots sticking out of the water. I also took the chance to read all about mangroves. There were lazy snails relaxing on the tree, with their multi-colored shells visible. I was amazed as I had only seen snails with brown shells and not fashionable colors like the ones here in Sungei Buloh.
We collected the data and went back to have a snack and then we left. Mr. Leong, who went with the other group, showed us all the pictures taken. Other than my friends, the other route my other classmates went also was fun, looking at the crabs, squirrels and monitor lizards pictures taken close up. I was also amazed at how close they could go up to the monitor lizards. Girls are supposed to be scared of them. It was an enjoyable experience for Leddin and me as we learnt about wildlife and how to collect data and comparing them. I hope Yusof Ishak Secondary would post more excursions for us like this one. Sorry we don’t have any videos or pictures to show.

STUFFY, ITCHY AND a bit BORIN...
We reached Sungei Buloh and we were divided into our assigned groups. We had a briefing and then we were each given a tablet pc and a webcam for us to scan barcodes.My webcam was a bit blurr so i could not scan the barcodes.Mr leong and Chris helped me with it but it was still blurr. My group members headed for the next station while i was stuck behind at station 1. It was very irritating and difficult to use the webcam but usin the internet on the pc was very fun.In the end, i did not use the webcam at all as i had given up on trying. I watched all my others classmates use the webcam, i did not feel jealous. I was free and did not have to stop at any station.A few other schools were there and when they saw our school usin the tablet pc, they were all jealous. It was quite irritating. They said we act rich only.While on the way, we saw a squirrel. It was so cute and it was not afraid of us. It stood still while we took pictures of it.There were a lot of mosquitos and other insects.We learnt about the flora and fauna of Sungei Buloh.Not many interesting things to see though. It was fun but a bit boring walking here and there scanning barcodes for 1 hour.After that, we ate and sat at the cafeteria waiting for the bus. We took a class photo and group photo. The one thing we hated were all the students starring at us using the tablet pc.

Today we went for the sugei buloh trip..before we went in the morning we had some briefing and then we assemble in the foyer and then went boarded the bus..sungei buloh isnt far after a distance of about 15 min ...we reached there there were many school over there there were riverside and maha bhodi and many more other school,soon we were lead into a shelter by the teacher we wasnt with our friends..because we were separated into two groups..we were the one with the data logger...
We had to measure the pH value,temperature,conductivity of the water,air around the shelter.we had three sensor,the one to measure the temparature,the conductivity and the pH value it was very interesting..and we were pround of ourself as when people walk past we heard compliment of something like wow..this school so high tech this school like so fun..we really enjoyed ourselves at that part although the weather was rather wet ...
After that the teachers ask the leader to move on with her to another platform to get the rading as the weather was wet only the leaders followed but after awhile the weather when back to normal the teacher make a phone call and as the other members to come along..on the way there was some accident ...someone in the group drop their data loggers..and went they reach the platform the realise that their plastic pen was missing...
After doing everything and while proceeding back we were ask to look on the way for the plastic pen...we didnt have any clues of it..after to we went back to the entrance and while the teachers are collecting back the sensors..it finally came back a instructor got it inside a pail...such a relieve... We had our breaks and went to the cafe over there to eat and relax...after awhile the whole class gather again and took photos and waited for the bus to come ...after awhile the bus came and we finally went back to school...school sweet school ...haha.we went back to com lab 4 and had a break again..later when everyone is back we tried logging in into the blog.. NOW IT PHOTO AND VIDEO TIME !!!!ENJOY!

Today, we went to Sungei Buloh.The journey from the school to there took us around 20 mins.When we reached there,the teacher told us to get off the bus and line up in twos.We went to a shelter on our way to the journey.We stopped there to get some samples from the river water and measured the temperature,conductivity and the pH level of the water.While we were finishing,it started to rain.We cannot go to the next station due to the rain as some of the pupils did not bring umbrellas.So,one of the teachers told the group leaders to use umbrella to go to the next station to collect water and the rest stay at the shelter.When we reached there, the rain had stopped.So,the teacher called the rest of the pupils to go to the next station.When we all reached there,we started taking the water from the river and we did experiments which are the smae as the previous one.After finishing, we went back to the starting point to have our break.To our dismay,the food there was very expensive.So we decided to go back to school to have our meal.Soon the bus came, we boarded the bus and headed back to our school.
