Standing below the ribbed arches of the newly opened Singapore Oceanarium, we, the members of Raffles Press, were met with an unexpected sight: a kindergarten school excursion. Children milling around, bright-eyed and full of wonder, eagerly pointing to projections of sea creatures above. Truthfully, they were not much different from usâa group of bushy-tailed Rafflesians keenly jotting down the sights and senses around us.

Stepping into the newly renovated Singapore Oceanarium (previously the SEA Aquarium), visitors are greeted by a splash of colour: sea jellies of all shapes and sizes adorn the entrance of the expanded marine arsenal.
But in the midst of learning more about species such as the iconic fried egg jellies at each tankâs refreshed graphical exhibitions, a giant mop would soon plunge into their waters.Â
It was cleaning and feeding hour at the Oceanarium, and the sea jelly team of marine biologists were beginning the process of caring for their blobby friends. Coincidental as it was, this was the prelude to our upcoming experienceâthe âAnimal Spotlight: Sea Jelliesâ package.

This Teacherâs Day, Raffles Press took a blast from the past â we reached out to four current RI teachers who previously were RI students. What was RI like back then? How did their school life differ from us?
Armed with a camera, a mic and some burning questions, we set out to find the answers to these questions.
