  1. Students can make a compilation of the military heroes they know of in groups. They can list their ranks and the major incidents that they're known for.
  2. Students can collect pictures of rockets and warships used by our defence forces.

Community Based Project

Students should be encouraged to visit or set up a Red Cross Society in their school or neighbourhood.
