Inspired by the Tembusu tree, the school crest pictures a growing young tree which represents a growing child who is anchored in strong values, thriving in a fast-changing globalised world. The child, also represented by an open-book, is a life-long learner with a hunger for knowledge and excellence. The child is well supported by parents and teachers, forming a strong partnership in providing an all-round education, balancing the development of character and abilities.

Photography Tip: Use back focus at LFNK logo. Support your elbow on table top. Avoid the altar to the right of the logo as it will distract the viewer from the logo. Use F/16 as it puts the people in focus than F/8 or F/4. Canon R5. AV Mode. ISO 200, F/16. I don't know whether the smartphone will give this sharp photo.

4584. The Syrian hamster owner feels a "blueberry" lump in the "stomach area" of his 13-month female Syrian hamster
THE SYRIAN HAMSTER HAS A 'BLUEBERRY' LUMP INSIDE HER BLADDER AREA. What to do?
BE KIND TO PETS VETERINARY EDUCATIONAL STORIES
sponsored by Toa Payoh Vets
VET CASE. Hamster lumps. What to do?
The Syrian hamster owner feels a "blueberry" lump in the "stomach area" of his 13-month female Syrian hamster. The hamster ate less for the past few days. He was very worried. He took leave to consult me on Thursday 2 Feb 2023.
The Syrian hamster does not bite. So, it was easier for me to feel
(palpate) her abdomen for the lump. My assistant Hsu was kind enough
to video my examination using her Samsung Galaxy Fold 4. Very sharp
videos unlike my Canon R5 which has difficulty in focusing, producing
blurry videos.
You can see the "hair loss" on the
left belly area of around 1 cm across. It is not obvious during
physical examination, but on review of one of the 2 videos, you can
see that the hamster had been licking this belly area.
What
is the "blueberry" lump in the abdomen? I palpated a firm globular lump in the bladder area of around 1 cm across or the size of
a small-sized grape. What is it?
Possible causes are:
1. Bladder stone
or tumour or infected full bladder.
2. Splenic tumour.
3. Close
pyometra (uterus swollen with pus).
4. Abdominal tumour.
As the hamster released much urine (1
ml or more) during my palpation (see one of two videos), the retained
urinary bladder could be the "blueberry" lump in the
stomach area.
Antibiotics and painkiller for next 10 days
first. If the lump is still present, I will do X-rays and ultrasound.

4581. WILDLIFE SINGAPORE. Red junglefowl hen and chicks - 2 episodes.
SINGAPORE WILDLIFE
In late 2022, this red junglefowl roams
freely on the grounds of the Singapore General Hospital with his
flock of around 4 others. He crows loudly. I saw a little girl,
probably China National with her parents, cupping her ears with her
hands as she stood listening. He looked young and knew no fears about
human beings. I don't see them in early 2023.
The red
junglefowl is kept as pets in some houses or permitted to roam the
outside as in Lentor Estate.
The roaming ones are rarely seen
after a few days.

to make them stand out.
