Residents' Committee(RC) Centres at Bukit Panjang Estate April 2011

Zhenghua Jelapang Residents Committee is a centre under the

framework of the People's Association (PA). The function of this

grassroot organisation is to achieve the mission in building and

bridging communities as One People, One Singapore by offering

a wide range of programme and services to cater to the need and

interests of Singaporeans from all walks of life. An estate like

Bukit Panjang can have quite a few RC centres in operations,

constantly organizing outdoor and indoor activities to promote an

active and healthy lifestyle for the locals.

Zhenghua Jelapang RC

This is my "birth place" where I started to get a feel of Tai Chi

Chuan during the year 2007. Before this, I've never heard of it,

well, a little bit perhaps but not sure what is it like. One day,

I chanced upon my senior during a gathering who is also my friend.

She took the opportunity to invite me to sign up for the Tai Chi

course which I hesitated for a while without any clue of this

         martial art. I finally agreed to sign up for the sake of health.
         Thereafter, it has become a place where I started to widen my
         social life and I'm very glad to have worked and enjoyed together
         with this Tai Chi groups.  People here are friendly and easy to get
         along with and you can certainly pick a few wisdom and advice
         from their life's experience. The new students are the one that always
        inspired me with their enthusiasm and an eagerness to learn.They
         also knew when to exercise their respect for the seniors. Such is the
        teaching ideology of our two teachers :

Respect the Senior, Follow the Way. 尊师重道

Team Spirit means to put your ego aside,to

learn from each other, to co-operate with your

peers, to synchronise your speed of movement

with your team, to enjoy the moment as one, to

sacrifice your personal time, to put in effort, to

help each other, to respect all, to put your status

aside, to have one common goal, to set differences

aside, to forgive each other, to accept success or

failure as a team, to reflect on yourself, to listen

to advice, and if everyone is willing to work

towards this principles:

You Have Already Won

Henry The Thinker... or Watcher ?

Men ! Boys will be boys..........

Ladies ! Keeping to their mother nature........

A happy and relaxing moment after the performance.

All seem satisfied and glad with our current performance

so far but complacent is the last thing we had in mind.

Well done guys!Also, thanks to the cool breeze

coming at the right moment during the

display, so cooling and really calms

down our nerves. I'm

enjoying every

moment

of it

Teachers Day Celebration                                                          Sept 2010

This is our third Teachers Day Celebration for our two beloved and well respected teachers to give thanks for their relentless sacrifice, patience and dedication in all these years. We totally enjoyed this light-hearted moment as it is something out of our normal Tai Chi routine. The celebration is also a good way to enhance group spirit and to foster a common understanding among each other while engaging in small-talks and don't get me wrong, I'm not referring to gossips!
