Reading Time: 6 minutes

In the last term, RI has received many new guests to its school wildlife ecosystem. Small as they may be, they’ve made their presence otter-ly known; in fact, they’ve managed to create quite the spectacle whenever they show up at the ponds.

Stepping into unfamiliar ground, surrounded by unfamiliar faces, you had 3 days to make the most of your time.

Reading Time: < 1 minute

By Jaden Lum Zi Jun (26S05A) and Nithilan Balachander (26A01C)

Behind the thick glass barriers of the newly-opened Singapore Oceanarium, lie many magnificent creatures of the sea.

Curious how these organisms developed from the same bacteria that we came from? Let Raffles Press take you on an evolutionary journey spanning billions of years, all from the comfort of your home.
