NE Show
Primary 5 students attended the National Day Parade (NE) Show, celebrating Singapore’s achievements and strengthening their sense of national pride.
On Saturday, 19 July 2025, Primary 5 students attended the National Day Parade (NE) Show, a lively and memorable event celebrating Singapore’s independence and accomplishments. The show was held at the Padang and featured vibrant performances, including marching bands, dances, and cultural displays that highlighted Singapore’s rich heritage.
Students watched inspiring performances that showcased the unity, resilience, and creativity of Singaporeans. There were also segments that emphasized important values such as kindness, responsibility, and respect for others, reminding us that everyone can contribute to our nation’s success.
The NE Show was both entertaining and educational. It allowed students to feel proud to be Singaporean and understand the importance of working together to build a safe, clean, and caring country. Many students especially enjoyed celebrating Singapore’s milestones with fellow citizens and learning how small acts of kindness and responsibility can make a big difference in the community.
Overall, the NE Show was a memorable experience that encouraged Primary 5 students to reflect on their role as young Singaporeans and inspired them to contribute positively to the nation.
I am proud to be a Singaporean and grateful to live in a safe and peaceful country, as I was reminded while watching the NE Show. I can play my part by keeping Singapore clean and safe. I will also do my best to be eco-friendly, for example, by riding a bicycle or travelling in an electric car when moving from place to place. I hope Singapore will become even more united, with everyone working together to build our Lion City. Together, we can make Singapore the best country!— Karyn Kan, 5 Compassion
After experiencing this year’s NE Show, I can say that it was definitely a pleasant experience watching it together with my classmates. As a Primary 5 student in Singapore, I can contribute by keeping my surroundings clean and helping the elderly, for example, by offering them my seat on public transport. A simple, kind act can make a big difference—like an endless ripple—because people are inspired by others to be kind. I can also help shape Singapore’s future by teaching and inspiring the younger ones to be well-mannered and kind, so that they can grow to become better versions of themselves. I hope for my country to remain drug-free, filled with helpful and kind people, and for us to continue maintaining our cleanliness. The NE Show has made me feel proud of my country as we celebrate SG60, and I truly enjoyed celebrating with everyone at the Padang.— Rachel Loy, 5 Compassion
