How can we play without shoes?
A good team doesn't worry about not having shoes.
We worry if our hearts are not in the right place.
Our hearts are in the right place!
Without our hearts, we will die!
What about our homework?
Yes.
Do it ourselves!
I don't believe with a little hard work,
we can't do our homework!
Right!
Hey, does this look like Kun's handwriting?
Where?
It does! Looks just like it!
Mr and Mrs Tan, I'm so sorry I have to do this.
But this is not the first time.
Take a look at this.
This handwriting is so ugly!
You see, last time his handwriting was so nice!
But now you see, the handwriting looks so horrible!
That's why I know he got someone to do this.
This is a very serious offence.
So I would suggest you
ask him to stop playing football,
if not, he will be out of this school.
Get up!
Why didn't you do your homework yourself?
Why did you get someone to do it for you?
And you have to find
someone with worse handwriting!
Do you know how much we dote on you?
We won't forgive you for doing badly in school!
From today, you are not to play soccer again!
Until you show better results at school!
You'll stop all activities related to soccer!
Let's go!
Looks like we have to send him to England!
Class,
everyone did well in the recent test.
The top 3 students
get a pen as a gift from me.
First, Tan Seow Hay.
Next, Liu Hong Soon.
Lastly, the student with
the highest score on the test.
He is Chew... Kiat...
Kun!
Brother, hurry up! Or you will be late!
Run faster.
Eh? The shoes are broken!
Run faster.
Brother, the shoes can't be worn anymore. Look!
We have given up hope
getting shoes from Beng Soon.
But we still hope to find her old shoes.
We still hung on to that hope.
Students, for today's assembly topic,
we shall discuss personal health and hygiene.
When you cough, you should cover your mouth.
Otherwise, your saliva will be everywhere,
the virus will be everywhere,
and people everywhere
will be infected.
One will infect ten. Ten will infect hundreds.
Finally, the whole country will be infected.
This is what you call an epidemic.
Currently, the most infectious virus
is tuberculosis.
Okay. Dismissed.
Please return to your classes orderly.
Your Math test is coming.
To get a perfect score is easy.
Let's do revision today.
There are ten questions on the board.
You must answer them, okay?
Today we'll do the sum of even and odd numbers.
It's very easy.
Just keep practicing and practicing at home.
Keep doing them...
Okay, you will now take turns...
Chew Seow Fang?
Are you listening to me?
She got all the sums correct. Very good!
Eh? Where are your shoes?
I was afraid to dirty my skirt.
Towkay, here is the money I owe you.
Sorry I still owe you some.
I'll pay you another day.
You are different from the rest.
Here are two pencils for your kids.
Thank you.
Towkay, if there is a job no one wants to do
you can recommend me.
Wait! You! Wait! You!
Hey stop!
I gave you so many chances
for your late coming to school.
But still no improvement at all
and you are getting worse!
See! Your shoe is so wet!
I'm sure you go and catch fish, right?
No!
Out!
Out!
Kun, the principal says you can return to school.
Your shoes are torn. Give dad some time
and I'll buy you a new pair.
It's okay. I can still wear them.
Bye, dad!
Seow Fang, I'll definitely
get you another pair of shoes.
Here's the pen my teacher gave me. It's for you.
Don't be upset, okay?
Towkay, thanks for giving me this job.
I'll give you $2 each day for delivery.
If you are good,
I'll let you learn how to drive and you can help me.
Sure, I'll work hard!
Hey, the bicycle is broken, so don't ride it!
Okay!
And one more thing...
I know, Towkay! Let's go!
Thank you! Thanks!
Dad, look! A tip!
You got one too?
Yes!
The towkay is right.
These Caucasians are generous.
Look, so many tips.
Kun, now that dad has money
I can buy you whatever you want!
Dad, can you buy Seow Fang
a pair of new shoes?
Not just for Seow Fang.
Yours have holes in them too.
I'll buy you a pair as well.
And your mom is about to give birth,
we should buy her some health tonic as well.
Come!
Isn't this fun?
It's fun!
Oh dear! I know what's wrong with the bicycle!
What's wrong?
It has no brakes!
Didn't I tell you the bicycle is broken?
I repeatedly reminded you not to ride it!
Towkay, I didn't know the bicycle
didn't have brakes.
Well, good thing you are okay.
My bicycle is in this state
because you didn't listen to me.
I'll take it you bought it.
I'll take $30 for the bicycle,
plus what you owe me, that's $78.
So you still owe me $45!
Midwife!
Oh no! Are you alright?
You have to be careful with everything you do.
your wife and children will be in trouble.
Your wife is about to give birth.
Like before
I'll sit by my doorstep to keep watch.
Once you wave this cloth
I'll ride my bicycle over.
Twenty minutes and I'll be here.
Thank you, Midwife!
You better take care of yourself!
Hey, you dropped your pen!
Thanks.
Eh, you have new shoes?
Yes!
Where's your old pair?
Torn. Threw them away.
Huh? Threw them away? Where?
At the village rubbish dump.
Village rubbish dump?
Seow Fang, look! Found it!
My shoe!
The other shoe must be around!
Keep looking!
Total suppression!
Unfair retrenchment!
Brother, let's go.
Looks like they are about to fight.
Okay.
Seow Fang,
look! Look over there!
Your shoe!
I'll go get it!
Will it be dangerous?
Should be okay.
Be careful!
I know.
My friend,
no matter how many people you send,
we'll fight on and fear no obstacles!
Seow Fang, don't be afraid!
I'll kill you!
Let's go!
Your other shoe! It's here!
No!
My shoe! No!
NO!!!
The 1965 National Junior Cross Country Run
is holding its selections.
The best two students from each class
will represent the school.
Teacher, I think I'll embarrass the school.
I think you are right.
You better not embarrass the school.
Teacher, I'm not feeling very well.
Can I not take part?
You are not well?
Okay, then you don't have to run.
Okay. Other than Kun,
is there anyone else not well?
No.
Okay then. Get ready!
Go! Go! Go!
Don't embarrass me!
Hey, want to go to the canteen for a drink?
Come on!
Do you need my help?
My teacher told me today
if I continue to wear your shoes
I'll have to see the principal
and ask dad and mom to come to school
I have run out of excuses.
Third Prize:
A Pair of School ShoesCome in.
Teacher, I want to represent the school
in the National Junior Cross Country Run.
The selection is over.
You said you were ill that day?
Teacher, this competition
is very important to me.
I have to take part in it.
This competition is important to others too.
If I let you run in it,
it will be unfair to others.
I can't.
Teacher, I beg you! Please!
Teacher, I beg you. Give me a chance!
Take part next year!
No! No!
Teacher,
