The EDB has launched the campaign “Promoting Positive Values and Attitudes through English Sayings of Wisdom (SOW)” to enhance students’ English learning and develop in them positive values and attitudes.
English Sayings of Wisdom (SOW) are inspiring words that hold the knowledge of truth and advice for life, shed light on uncertainties, and provide insights into life.
20 SOW are selected for the game SKETCHESS – I Guess SOW. Players either sketch the picture for the selected SOW or guess what SOW is being sketched.
