videos and interesting sharing from the speakers. Participants will also get to present their

Activities from Apr till June

Dear Scouts

As exams loom near, there are many things that I would like you guys to take note of.

1. District Patrol Camp [16-20Jun11] (and National Patrol Camp in Nov/Dec)
You guys need to practise!!! I will be available on Tuesday (19/4) and Thursday (21/4). I'm having similar exam dates as you guys so I understand. I will meet you guys on Tuesday to discuss on the plans. All to be present! [added by Mr Wong - Pls note that this coming weekend (22/4) starts the CCA standdown]

2. National Day Parade 2011
I will be there to help out. My main objective is to help the Foot Drill Instructors (FDIs) pass their On-Job Training (OJT). It will be a good exposure especially for the new Sec 1s. [added by Mr Wong - For the sec ones taking this up, to note that it requires quite a bit of commitment and sacrifices to your weekends and June holiday period. Ask the Sec 2s who have gone for it last year.]

3. National Exploration Challenge (Jun/Jul)
This is for you guys to experience real exploration. I will release more details when I have them. If the criterias meet, you guys can get the Explorer Badge.

4. World Scout Environment Programme
I would like to meet you guys to talk about it. Although there is no need to implement it Unit-wide, it'll be good for you guys to attempt and finish it. I would also see if I can tie in with the Water Conservation Badge for you guys to complete your National Campaign Badges. I'll be doing the project myself so no worries about it. I'll be there to guide you guys as well.

5. Personal Progression and Proficiency Badges Pursuit
As mentioned, the PLs will take you guys all the way through from Scout Standard to Advanced Scout Standard. I will do the World Scout Badge, First Class Scout Badge and the Chief Commissioner's Award. The PLs will train and test you, i'll just sign your books. Do not be afraid to take up whatever opportunities that come to you. I do hope all of you progress well all the way.

Scout meeting this Sat (26Mar11) - [8am - 12.30pm]

Dear Dove Scouts
There is Scout meeting this Sat (26Mar11) - [8am - 12.30pm].
Jiang Li sir will brief the PLs of the details of this Sat's meeting.
Please remember to bring your Scout booklet at all times for all the meetings and check which areas you'd need to pass in order to get to the next Scout Standard.

Also I'd like to take this opportunity to thank and commend everyone in their efforts during the last JobWeek.
We managed to hit our target maximum points for the Frank Cooper Sands Award section on Jobweek earnings. The next one will be the donation draw tickets that will be issued to you around May. Please continue to keep up the good work!
Also FYI, so far the top 3 earners for JobWeek are from the Sec 1s!! Will let you all know who they are once all the Jobweek cards and monies are collected and accounted for. Those who earned 'well' will get their bumble-bee badge, Yayyy!! We will let you know what is the meaning of earning 'well' soon.
As said earlier, the top 3 earners for JobWeek will receive a 50% subsidy for the coming Jamboree at year end which we are targeting the Malaysia Jamboree (19-25Nov2011). The details of the Jamboree should be coming from Scout HQ soon and we will try to have almost our whole unit to go for this as much as possible.

This will be your Advanced Scout Standard test on Cooking (2). Cooking without utensils = backwoodsman cooking (recall Dec Camp). You have 2 hours to complete it. Those who have not clear Scout Standard, this Sat will be the chance to do so. Please approach your PLs for help.

3. Sec 3s: You will be doing your First Class Pioneering project. I want to see a model done using bamboo sticks/ cane sticks. Projects can be either of the 3: tower, bridge or aerial runway. You have 4 hours to complete it.

4. Sec 4s: You will assist me in assessing the Sec 2s and Sec 3s. Once I'm done with the Sec 1s, I will check on them.

Your intense training has commenced. By June, hopefully, the seniors move up to the next level of Standards. I will also announce who are new the APLs.

Miss Han has gone to NIE to do her studies to become a full-fledge teacher and Ms Alia has been moved to another CCA due to a shuffle of teachers within CCAs.
Many many thanks to Ms Han and Ms Alia for all the contributions and we will dearly miss them both.

Our new teachers coming in are Miss Siti Nawal (our former Netball teacher ic) and Ms Joanna Ng (new teacher from another school). Do give our these two teachers are loud loud welcome when you all see them Ok?

Happy New Year and may we score a Frank Cooper Sands (Gold) for 2010! Yayyy!!!!
