Reflecion for 20th August (:

On Wednesday, the sec ones went for their Dynamite Health Trooper Badge while the sec twos fell in at the concourse at 3.15pm. We had uniform check and roll call as usual and we proceeded on with our 5 point test. Four our first test, we had to act out an advertisement on the iconic places of Singapore in groups. For the second test. we were given flags of different countries and name them. After that, we formed a horseshoe formation in the concourse. Lastly, we did a bit of drilling and some of the sec twos commanded the squad . All in all, I enjoyed the activity as I learnt about the flags of different countries and I’m looking forward to the next activity! (:

Reflection for 15th August (:


On the 15th of August, due to the O'level oral examinations, we had to fall in at the trophy area, instead of the concourse,  at 3.15pm sharp in half uniform. On that day, we were asked to hand in our tote bags that we made during the last initiative. The sec 1s then  had  a 5 point test on Outdoor 1.1 and 1.2 while the Sec 2s did gadget making and drilling. After the 5 point test, the Sec 1s did gadget making and we were asked to make a clothes hanger. We took a fair bit of time making it as it was our first time. Last but not least, we had patrol bonding. Each patrol brought snacks and we had a fun time bonding. Towards the end of patrol bonding, the Sec 3s announced the top 5 and consolation prize for the tote bag and yakult bottle making initiatives. Congratulations to all winners!!

Reflection for 13th August (:


On Wednesday,13th of August, those who signed up for the flight simulation initiative gathered at the concourse at 3.10 .We then took our attendance and boarded the bus to the Singapore Flyer where we had our initiative. Over there, the facilitator introduced us to many different jobs in the airline industry, different parts of a plane and had some activities for us like a word search and a quiz ( which was meant to trick us. At the same time, some of us were experiencing the flight stimulator. When it was my turn, the real pilot  sat beside me to guide me on how to land a plane. We ended off with a group photo with our facilitators and thanked them. Overall, I felt that this was a very good experience for us as it is not every day you get to try to fly a flight simulator  and I'm glad that Guides has given me this opportunity.

Reflection for 6th August (:


On the 6th August 2014 , we fell in at the concourse at 3.15pm. The sec 1s then proceeded to an empty classroom to take their 5 Point Test on Home 1.3 and Outdoor 1.3 

We had to make a miniature gadget that consisted of at least one knot and lashing using chopsticks. Some of us had to bring it home and to retie our knots as it was not up to standard. We then did some drilling. Lastly, we had our weekly physical training. Although it was really tiring , I felt that it was a good opportunity for us to bond as a patrol and train ourselves physically.
