CampCraft Competition 2008 Results

Dear Cadets,

first of all, I would like to thank the both teams including all reserves, CIs, SNCOs, supporters and TOs for their contribution and support for the past few months in preparation for this competition.
I am very pleased with the results though the top 10 teams were stronger than us.
Here are the results:

1. Boys - 23rd placing with a score of 60.60 % and
2. Girls - 14th placing with a score of 66.36 %, short of just 1 % to be in the finals.

The girls have done exceptionally well and I believe both teams had put in their best. And with this consistent effort and improvement, we have a good chance in 2010.

Thank you

Combined UG Camp (13th to 15th March) *Updated

Dear Cadets,


as most of you have been informed this morning, the school is organising the 1st combined UG camp during this March holidays.
The main objectives:

• To foster stronger relationships between different UGs
• 1st UG camp for the sec 1 cadets

All of you should have the consent forms with details are in there.

Some of you have approached me because of other commitments during the holidays. My focus is more on sec 1 cadets so I allow some degree of flexibility for sec 2 - 5 cadets. The affected cadets will participate some actitivites and therefore just need to pay less.

All sec 1s will be staying overnights and you'll be sleeping in classrooms on the gym matresses. For the other cadets, I am still trying to arrange such that you will be dismissed around 9 pm.

Sec 4/5 HRC 12/03 (Wed) @ Pulau Ubin

Dear Sec 4/5 cadets,

Area 7 is supposed to have the High Rope Challenge (HRC) on 12th March. But because some of you are involved in the LTC and sec 1 combined UG camp, it will be very tiring for you. Thus we will be joining another Area instead. Date to be confirmed.
