Announcements & Reminders (10 - 16 September 2007)

Hi everyone from HIHS NPCC


1. Weekly Training (12 September 2007, Wednesday)

Secondary 1 to 3 cadets, please fall-in at 2.30pm dressed in full uniform. This session will end at 6.00pm.


2. Campcraft Training (14 September 2007, Friday)

Cadets who are involved, please fall-in at 2.30pm dressed in your campcraft kit. This session will end around 6.30pm.


3. Your Academic Performances Matter

Whenever we (your NPCC officers and instructors) plan an activity for individual squads or the entire unit, its overall impact on your academic performances is one of many important factors that we have to consider. I have told CI Macrina that "we cannot request for a SECOND attempt of any EOY examination for our cadets, but we can always schedule MORE training sessions after the entire round of examinations". This actually means that we will not be organising any NPCC-related activity and training from Term 4 Week 3 onwards. On the other hand, it is likely for all CCA activites (including NPCC) to resume as early as Term 4 Week 5.

It also means that we will always expect you to begin your EOY revision as early as possible. Remember, you are doing our unit proud by doing as well as you can in your studies. After all, NPCC is about nurturing all-rounded cadets who will do their best in all areas of their lives.

Happy mugging then, especially our Secondary 4 & 5 members!


Regards

[Edited] Announcements & Reminders (3 - 9 September 2007)

Hi everyone from HIHS NPCC


You may pick up consent forms for the training sessions held this week from my pigeonhole.


1. Campcraft Training

The abovemention training will take place on the following days:

5 August, Wednesday (1.30pm - 4.30pm)

6 August, Thursday (1.30pm - 4.30pm)

8 August, Saturday (8.30am - 12.30pm)

Cadets who are involved, please fall-in dressed in your campcraft kit.


2. Weekly Training (7 September 2007, Friday)

Secondary 1 to 3 cadets, please fall-in at 1.30pm dressed in mufti. This session will end around 4.30pm.


3. The definition of mufti

We all know that mufti is the less formal version of the Full Uniform (or Full-U) worn by NPCC cadets:

Unit T-shirt
Uniform pants/skirt
Belt
Long black Socks
Plain white shoes


However, according to Cambridge Dictionaries Online, mufti are ordinary clothes worn by people who usually wear uniforms, especially soldiers. Hmm, so different!
