Monday was the kayaking initiative for the sec3s, but before that we had "leadership seminar" at Mrs Chin's house. After the session, we broke up into 2 groups, one group went cycling and the other went kayaking. Unfortunately, it poured! So, the group of us went to have lunch before we proceeded to Tampines Safra, with the intention to bowl. In the end, half of us ended up in the pool (the nice lifeguard let us in for free, with our shirts on) while the other half went to wash up as we were all drenched from the rain. After the initiatives (which failed), we met up with the rest and had dinner at Swensens at Parkway Parade, which was the guiders' treat. We had our fill and had gift exchange before we left.
Yesterday, Wednesday, we had a sharing session within the company, which was exactly the same thing the Sec3s did at Mrs Chin's place. We went through goal settings and activities review as patrols and shared our point of views with each other. We also set up our patrol slogan, which will last us for next year.
P1: "Teamwork makes the team do work"
P2: "I am not seh, we are seh"
P3: "A three without a H is just a solitary tree"
P4: Sorry I can't remember this!! It's super long, okay let me try!
" one person = one wooden chopstick
one patrol = one bunch of wooden chopsticks
super man = one metal chop stick
one metal chopstick = one bunch of wooden chopstick"
P5: "Kingfisher Ohana, TEAM" (which I forgot what they stand for =s)
P6: "Ixora, shine beyond the stars"
P7: " No (something), no (something). No Orians, No distance"
P8: "United we stand, divided we fall"
Ahh sorry to those patrols which I forgot about their slogans!! Sorry for mistakes too =s yep, we had lunch + kite flying and revealed orientation groupings. Some groups stayed back for a while to start on their discussion while the others went back.
Today, Thursday, was orientation preparation/practise. We split up into our own orientation groupings and started working on our individual stuff. This year's theme is: hippy guides and scouts. Hippy means awareness and alertness, and it is important for guides to be aware of their surroundings. We have traditional games performance- Sheng Qiao + Fireman Ladder, souveniers, outdoor cooking, PA, stage overviewer, gadgets, mini games (building a viking ship most probably and side transverse) and etc etc. can't remember =s We were pretty much on our own today and it seems like we accomplished quite a bit! Good job everyone!
Everyone take care of yourselves! And work harder for the actual orientation preparation on the first week when school starts!
Enjoy your last week of holidays / Happy rushing-homework week!
