Winner (25 February 2010)
Filzah Amani - Serangoon Secondary School
The picture above shows that every different force has a part to play. Every force must be vigilant and must look out for its resident. We must also fight for our own battle. We must … protect Singapore. We must also look out for each other and should not only rely just on the protection forces. Nobody owes Singapore a living, so we must build our nation together hand in hand.
Winners (27 February 2010)
Md Haiekal - Dunearn Secondary School
This picture depicts an image where the team which scores work together as a team to get the goal. There are people celebrating which means they are happy. The ball has 1 crescent and 5 stars representing Singapore and the goal which they score can be considered as the glory of Singapore. And in order to achieve it, everyone must help each other, hand in hand. The supporters which are not included in the match also play a part. Overall, I think this picture wants to send a message that everyone plays a part or have responsibilities to help Singapore achieve glory.

To many people, they would say that these spices remind them of Indians, but to me, it doesn’t. To me, these spices show the different kinds of people in Singapore living together. It also shows that even though we are different races and religion, we are all humans. It relates like even though they are all different spices, tey are categorised as spices. This shows that we have to live together in harmony because even though we are of a different race and religion, we are all the same in HEART.
The Grand Final of the PLUS Challenge 2010 was held at the HomeTeam Academy on 20 March 2010.
