HELLO :D

Today we had jihe, roll call and coursework, and the sec2s did goal-setting whereas the sec3s became housewives! :D

We learnt how to wash our clothes and iron them properly. Mrs Hong was there supervising and lent a helping hand to those who were in need. Half of the guides went to wash their "soiled" shirts while the others stayed in class to iron our school blouse. Intially, we were rather hesitant as the irons made "weird" noises. But soon, we got the gist of ironing. Through this activity, we learnt to appreciate our mothers more, and how hard they iron our shirts so neatly and wash them so clean for us! THANK YOU MOTHERS :D

Then we had photo-hunt! Many of us did not know what to expect as it was new. It turned out to be very interesting and a great way to keep us running! It bonded us with our patrols as the sec3s and sec2s do not get to excercise often together. Given photographs of various parts of the school, we then had to run around while holding hands to find the places. Along the way, there were sec4s around and we were advised to catch them for bonus points. However, some of the the sec4s ran really fast and we were unable to catch them. ):

After the great photo hunt, we had games as a company. We were first asked to interact with our coy and we got to know more about each other through the asking of questions such as the number of siblings a peron has.
We went to the field and the games begun!
We were split into 2 groups andplayed dog and bone and polar worms! It was a pity that no photos were taken as it could really capture us having fun and the fools we made of ourselves!
Dog and bone was different as we stood in a square, it was really funny to see everybone trying their best to get the sheng that was placed in the middle! Polar Worms were fantastic too as we saw majority of us going head first in the flour and becoming flour-y! We had to eat/nose/kiss through a lot of flour! Many of us were tickled by each other coming back with powdery faces. We had to answer many questions using what we have found out about each other earlier and run to I/Cs to answer with a worm in mouths we found in the flour! We had a super time as a coy and know more about one another! :D

It was a great and enriching time spent with the guides!
:D HAD FUN?

Today was a very different but fun friday!

Firstly, we had our usual roll call but it was stricter than before since we have been reminded about the roll call standards. We should constantly check ourselves and always ensure that we are up to standard.

After that, sec3s and sec2s had coursework. Sec3s learnt how to iron and wash clothes while sec2s went through goal setting with Miss Tang.

Finally, the photo hunt arrived! This teaches you to be more observant around the school next time, since some patrols took quite long to recognise the places in the photos! It was quite a sight when one whole patrols holding hands ran after one single sec4 to and fro to catch them for bonus marks. But some patrols were too fast for the wandering sec4s and thus some got caught in the end.

The patrol activity was dog and bone! It was an unusual one since it was in a SQUARE shape! 4 patrols in one group forming a SQUARE. At first, we started off with baisheng then masheng then YINGSHENG. We could not declare a winner for the yingsheng part since almost everyone was pulling the yingsheng and refusing to let go. After dog and bone we did the POLAR WORM game! Similarly we had to form a square around one table with a plate of flour on top. Iimelda and Zhenmei asked questions and those who knew the answer would run to the table and find a gummy bear in the flour before they can answer the questions! Everyone became white-faced but definitely everyone learnt something more about their friends or guides right? Now do you all know WHO'S THE TALLEST SEC4? and HER HEIGHT? and WHOSE BIRTHDAY IS ON WORLD THINKING DAY? :D

Hope everyone enjoyed themselves today! have a great weekend!! :)

Hi guides!

As Miss Ngau mentioned, we have 26 new sec1s who placed guides as their first choice! Good job to all guides whom enthusiastically introduced guides and persuaded the sec1s to join guides -- a different CCA, a CCA which teaches all of us how to 做人做事!-- during CCA orientation day! And three cheers to Ovidia and Priscilla whom made it all possible!!! Let's continue to be enthusiastic and welcome the sec1s into the big family! Let's continue to improve ourselves, learn from our mistakes and last but not least, make guides a better CCA(:

Yesterday, we had the first normal guides ji-he after so long!

sec 3s, the sec 4s will settle on the final method for Kitchen shelter as there are some variations because all of us did it differently during PLTC. We will either let you know or give you notes again.

Have a great weekend!(:

hi guides!

today, we had roll call before proceeding with the day's activities.

then, we had a skills training session. the sec 2s had to tie a kitchen dresser, while the sec 3s had to build a kitchen shelter. however, most of us had already forgotten some steps to building the kitchen shelter, so the sec 4s guided us on the correct method of doing so. then, the mistakes we made were pointed out, and we all knew the proper way to build a kitchen shelter after this session.

next was patrol corner, and we all had to mass change into our uniforms and back again. however, we did not meet the time limit, and had to do our punishments. then, the sec 4s told us of how our standard has been dropping, and what it should be like. we were then reminded of the ABCDs, and the need to have a sense of urgency and respect for our seniors.

finally, we had PT, where we did circuits.
