Assalamualaikum and a very splendid morning I bid to honourable principal, Puan Selasih bt. Jamal, dedicated vice principals, Mr.Jacky and Encik Kamal bin Bambang, respective teachers and last but not least my beloved friends. I am very glad as I had been given a golden oppoturnity to talk upon this stage. I as the Head Prefect would like to talk about Safety Measures in School. Dear members of the floor, Safety is very important. We have to be safety wherever we are to avoid unwanted incidents. As an example, in Living Skills Rooms, we have to follow the safety measure that have been taught by teachers such as wear apron during doing any work and for the males, you have to take off your tie. Other than that, we have to use utensil and tool carefully to prevent accidents. We have to follow instructions that had been ordered by our caring teachers. Wherelse when we are on staircase, we should walk in line to prevent jams. Im sure you too dont want walkway jams right? So, be patient and avoid pushing while walking because pushing could cause fight among ourselves and may cause accident. Moreover, why do we should pushing our friends? Are we rushing anywhere? We are still in this compound and we can reach any place in just five minutes. Try it and prevent misunderstanding with your friends. Thirdly, I would like to focus about safety measures in science laboratory. Science laboratory is a place for us to study, avoid unwanted conseqeunces in the future. While we conduct experiments, please observe rules carefully. Especially while conducting experiments that includes corrosive acids, explosive or radioactive substances. Please take care of yourself. Besides that, dont forget while in the school canteen. I know you people are really hungry but be patient. The food is not going run or took away by Aladdin. You will get the food. If you want buy food, please queue up. We have to be fair as first come, first serve. Be honest to yourself and give way to the ones who comes earlier. Lastly, there is only one thing, I would like to remind you, take care of yourself. It is better to prevent than cure. So, obey the safety measures, be safety, avoid accidents and misunderstandings. I guess that all what I want to tell all of you. Thank you. SharK/2

Top of the morning to our beloved principal, Datin Rokiah Yahya, the ever dedicated teachers, prefects and friends. As the Head Prefect, I have been asked to give a speech this morning concerning the topic of Safety Measures in School. Before I begin, I wish to request everyones attention and cooperation throughout this speech as this topic is of great importance. Allow me to begin my speech with the safety measures in the Living Skills Rooms. The reason why I choose to begin with the Living Skills Rooms is because they have been the site of the highest number of, shall we say, calamities. Now, do not be alarmed when I say this. Many of said calamities could have been prevented if the students were more careful. So, as long as you remember to use the utensils and tools in a proper manner and follow your teachers instructions carefully, you should be just fine. Another site of many a mishap is the Science Laboratory. Based upon my own personal observations, a good number of these accidents occur when experiments are being conducted. It is with great disappointment I report that, just like the Living Skills Rooms, if the students had simply observed the rules better, they could all have been prevented. To all of you here today, I cannot stress more the importance of following the safety rules as well as paying heed to your teachers advice. The staircases found all over the school compound can also be classified as dangerous places when it comes to the safety of students. To make sure nothing bad happens to you, do walk in line and avoid pushing. The latter especially so if you are positioned at the very top of the staircase because if you fall, I can assure you, it is a very long way down. In the school canteen, it is important to queue up when buying food. I realize that many of you might find queuing up an extremely slow and frustrating process. But in the full 20 minutes allocated to you for your recess, what is a few minutes of queuing up to get to your food? With that said, I trust and have faith that each and every one of you will reign in your impatience and start queuing in the canteen from now on. I hope my faith in all of you will not turn out to be misplaced. In conclusion, my entire speech in a nutshell is, rules are not meant to be broken. They are here to prevent accidents from happening. With the proper observation of the safety rules, I assure you, our school will be a much safer place to study in. I thank you all kindly for your attentive listening. SharK/3

Good morning to our principal, teachers and friends. As the Head Prefect, I have been asked to give a speech about Safety Measures in School. There are some various locations in the school where safety should be emphasised. We can avoid accidents happen if we follow the rules and do things carefully. When we are in the living skills rooms, we have to use the utensils and tools carefully. Read the label and follow the instructions from your teachers. On the other hand, we should walk in line when we go up or go down stairs. Avoid pushing each other on the staircase or you may injure easily. We must observe the rules when we enter the science laboratory. Dont try any chemical substances because it is very dangerous. Becareful when you conduct some experiments. When we go to the school canteen at the recess time, remember to queue up when you buy your food. Make sure to keep our canteen clean all the time because it is the place we buy our food and eat. In the nutshell, we have to take care of ourself and our school. We can only concentrate better to our studies if our school is clean and safe.
