Check out the Top 10 winning entries for the ‘Anti-drug Montage Competition!
Alexandra Primary School
Art Club students from Alexandra Primary School, together with their dedicated Art teachers, created the Anti-Drug Montage – The Best Me is a Drug-Free Me, using bottle caps. After the montage was painted, students from P1 to P4 were invited to
drop by the Art Room to place bottle caps onto the artwork and to pen down their thoughts. It reminds the students on how they could stay drug-free by engaging in meaningful and creative art projects that beautify our environment. It also helps to connect
with the visual mind and encourage one to ponder how staying drug free can make one feel stress-free and light as a hot air balloon.

Huamin Primary School
The inspiration behind Huamin Primary School’s Anti-Drug Montage was taken after the quote by James Leigh Hunt, "The groundwork of all happiness is health. The montage aims to emphasize that having good health and a healthy lifestyle is
the foundation to happiness, giving us the opportunity to bring out the best in us. Drug abuse will harm one’s physical and mental health, depriving the person a chance to lead a healthy and meaningful life. The montage depicts the students engaging
in various forms of exercise and leading a healthy, happy life. This can only be achieved when we stay away from drugs. Students were also encouraged to pen down their pledges against drugs and articulate their knowledge on drug abuse.
