Searching for?

11 July 2010

Hey Guides,

We had activity on Friday, first activity since last term. Firstly, Mrs Poh briefed us on what we were going to do that day. She also told us that there would be a reshuffling of patrols, and the addition of 2 new patrols. This change was quite unexpected, and we all had mixed feelings not knowing what to expect and which patrol we’d be in. After this, we broke off for patrol corner, where we taught the Year 1s how to march for their enrolment is on the following week. There were really a lot of things for them to take note and to correct themselves within the short period of time; such as the commands and the correct position and things. I think my patrol’s Year 1s did quite well, and managed to march quite neatly at the end of the patrol corner. We combined with another patrol and played games which were lots of fun!

After patrol corner, we were given an hour to practice our jie item for passing down next week.

After an hour of rehearsing, we went back to the General Science Lab Area to settle several admin things. Year 2s collected our bronze badge as well as the Crime Prevention patch, good job to all year 2s!

Mrs Poh also told us our new patrols as well as the juniors that were in our patrols. Even though I couldn’t bear to be in a different patrol from my patrolmates, juniors and seniors, I knew that this was for the benefit of everyone as Mrs Poh explained to us, reshuffling and adding new patrols would allow us to know each other better as well as to create more leading opportunities for everyone. Furthermore, I realized that I barely knew any Year 1s from other patrols; this would really be the time where we mixed around and get to know one another better. Thus it may not be a bad thing altogether.

“我誓愿把团部利益放在小队利益之上,把小队利益放在自己利益之上。”We should always put this in mind and no matter which patrol we’re in, we would all be pia-ing hard together to bring DHS coy to greater heights.

Love Guides! <3
