DHS-psyCOYlogy!

Hi guides,

we had jihe on friday for pre-camp inspection. Each of the atc patrols occupied one room at the junior high block, level 3 and layed out the tables for our inspection. We then layed out our styrofoam boxes, peibei, patrols shorts, banner, flag, mealbags and identities for inspection.

Then, our year3 counsellors from each patrol came to check on various parts of our camp items.

For my patrol, our counsellors checked our first aid kit and peibei. Like many other patrols, we did not include an item list in the first aid box, which was very important. We now remember not to make the same mistake.

The next few groups of counsellors checked on our standardization of patrol shorts, identities and mealbags, as well as our banner and flag. Parts we did well in were creativity and use of colours. Our seniors also commented that our items were rather standardized with a few exceptions. However, our banner and flag were not completely water-proof and we were unsure of the meanings of our items. Thus, we still have much room for improvement.

After that, the counsellors also tested us on patrol songs and cheers, and the standardization of inspection layout. The layout was in general, neat, but the standardization with other patrols was not as good. We year 2s should have checked with other patrols more to confirm the layout of the items.

After every inspection by the counsellors, we had to complete our punishment which included pumpings, jumping jacks, running, etc. We kept our patrol spirit strong and cheered one another on. However, many of us need to improve on our stamina and pumpings standard.

Atc is on monday, jiayou to everyone!

Love guides :)
