Total Defence Day - Will you stand with me?

Dear all,


Today we commemorate Total Defence Day. During SS lesson, many of you asked me so many what if questions.  

"What if we cannot get to a bomb shelter from school?"
"What if the radio station is bombed?"
"What if we cannot hear the siren?"
"What if the siren sounds due to a fault?"  

..etc. Indeed, so many possible what if situations. Which further enhances my message to all of you:  we must always BE PREPARED. So no matter what is the situation, we are able to react in the best manner.

As some of you requested, here are the sites I shared during lesson today. You may read more in depth for you to further your knowledge.  

Here is a link with many videos created by students with the theme of total defence:
