The Coat Of Arms

We are happy to learn about Belize " The Coat of Arms ".
Belize is a town in America and Belizean spoke English and
Spanish . Now we are going to talk about the coat of arms .

The shield of the Coat of Arms is divided into three sections by a vertical line and an inverted V.The base section represents a ship in full sail on waves of the sea.The two upper sections show tools of the timber industry in Belize: a paddle and a squaring axe in the right section and saw and a deating axe in the left section.


Supporting in the shield are two woodcutters,the one one the right holding a deating axe over his shoulder in his right hand,and the one on the left holding a paddle over his shoulder in his left hand.

Chinese New Year

In Singapore, we celebrate Chinese New Year. The Chinese children collect red packets from elders as a sign of good luck. We celebrate Chinese New Year first with a reunion dinner on the eve of New Year. It is here where we get to sit down and eat with entire family, including our relatives whom we do not see often.
