Wang Jing ; A Role Model to All

As everybody would know by now, our Secondary Four students from last yar have made the school proud by yielding excellent GCE 'O' Level Examinations results. Although we had many top scorers, nobody shines out more brightly than Wang Jing from Secondary 4/2m our top student for the Secondary 4 Express cohort. Not only has she achieved 7 A1s for her GCE 'O' Level Exams, she also has contributed much to the school as well as to the community.

Wang Jing, who is currently studying in Victoria Junior College, was the President of Councillors and Captain of the School's Canoeing Team. This already shows that she had good leadership qualities. She also mentored and coached other canoeists and won the Inter-Schools Canoeing Championships B Division Singles for the East Zone. Despite being busy with her Co-Curricular Activities, she still managed to cope with her schoolwork and managed to achieve excellent GCE 'O' Level Exam results. We can look at her as a role model for her good time management.

Wang Jing is also one who puts others before herself. On Mondays and Fridays, Wang Jing would conduct free tuition for needy students. On Wednesdays she would have a Student Councillors' meeting and on Sundays, she would help her father out at his hawker stall. On other days, Wang Jing would have Canoeing Training. Her after-school schedule shows that she sacrifices her time to help others who are in need. She conducts free tuition for needy tudents, knowing that they need help in their studies and have nobody to turn to. She also helps her father out at his hawker stall, knowing that Sunday is a busy day for hawkers as families like to eat out. Her good deeds proves that she is not self-centered and wants to help others before helping herself. This is yet another reason why we can look at Wang Jing as an example to every one of us.

From the interviews we had with Wang Jing's ex-Form Teacher and Wang Jing herself, we can conclude that Wang Jing's success was due to her hard work and perseverance. According to her ex-Form Teacher, " Wang Jing is an inquisitive learner who pays attention in class and reads beyond what is required in the syllabus.". This shows Wang Jing's sincerity in her learning as that she works hard to understand what she is learning. According to an interview with Wang Jing herself, she claims to be an ordinary girl and everyone can achieve what she has. The secret to her success was to study hard and be very focused in whatever she was doing. we can all see how Wang Jing has persevered and worked hard even though she was busy with other activities such as canoeing and table tennis training.

We can now see that everybody has the capability to do well but it must be done with hard work and peseverance. We must also learn to mamage our time well instead of blaming the lack of time on our Co-Curricular Activities. If an ordinary girl such as Wang Jing could do it, so can we!
