Hey guys. Thank you for today. I was very surprised most of you came even thou it was a last minute meeting. This shows that you guys are reliable leaders! and L's english.. powderful man..

Tmr you guys must meet up to buy the materials for the games. Rmb to keep the receipts and dont splurge, cheep cheep ones can alr..

Band is going for exchange this thursday. This is a big big exchange, 10 schools all together! How big Henderson Sec is man..

anw.. the 10 schools are:
1) Us
2) Henderson (host)
3)Yuying
4) Gan Eng Seng
5) Nan Hua
6) Changkat Changi
7) Bedok Green
8) Manjusri

Therefore, here comes another mission for you guys!
We need to prepare gifts for the 9 schools. Since its a last min thing(again), we will just do well wishes cards for them, wishing them good luck for the coming SYF.
Tmr after you guys buy the materials needed then go school do the thing ok? I'll ask Ms Mariah open the door so we can use the art materials from the band room to decorate. But you all must go buy 9 vanguard sheets or cardboard or whatever to do up the cards.

Pls come and help if you can, ok?! the timing all that you all decide. The sec 4s will come after class.

Arts Camp

Hey guys, as mentioned on fri, we will be having our arts camp on 18th and 19th of March. We are going to play some ice breaking games with the other cca. There will be 216 people in total (probably less than that because of the regular absentees from the various cca). But we will just group the people up according to the 216 people first.

So, there would be 12 groups, 18 people in each. And 6 stations, 2 in-charge to run each stations. 2 groups will play against each other in 1 station. Meaning, 1 in-charge to record score/timing for 1 group and another in charge to record score/timing for the other group. Something like that..

There will be 6 stations in total. So the 12 game facilitators will be paired up to plan and run the game, 2 to 1 station.
The order of sequence will be like, for eg:
Group 1 and 2 : Station 1-2-3-4-5-6
Group 3 and 4: Station 2-3-4-5-6-1
Group 5 and 6: Station 3-4-5-6-1-2
and so on, until all the 12 groups finish all 6 stations.

Station 1-in-charge will be Arziemah and Alan
Station 2-in-charge will be Evelyn and Lydia
Station 3-in-charge will be Vanessa and Auzaie
Station 4-in-charge will be Artiqah and Amalina(percussion)
Station 5-in-charge will be Daryl and Danial Charlotte
Station 6-in-charge will be Raja and DJ

You guys have to meet up tmr to plan/discuss the games.
Make it at Sunplaza Macdonald, 2pm, or earlier(you guys discuss among yourselves)

Main idea is to bond the people tgt. The games dont have to be over complicated. Simple ones will do. But everyone must be involved. No dangerous games pls.

Here are the things to be completed tmr.
1) Get into your pairs and think of games (can use our previous band games as reference)
2) Write down objectives of games
3) Write down CLEAR instructions of games
4) Things/materials needed for the games

The sec4s will come to help after our class.

Lastly, if you are not able to make it tmr.. Pls inform chinwen or fatin so that we can get replacement. Sorry for this last minute thing but we really got to do it asap because our arts camp is coming real soon! And we are unfortunately chosen to run the 'Game Time'..
I guess they chose us because we are the most fun-loving cca.. Correct not Band?! hehe.

If you cant make it for tmr, pls pls inform us. No punishments or whatever if you cant make it.
If you have any doubts, pls contact us too!

Thanks for helping out, Potential leaders! (:


Loves,
Chinwen
