On 19april 2008, saturday, was hkss annual Speech Day 2008. Our npcc cadets participated in the parade. The sec2s were involved in the supporting contingent led by SGT Kristabel Khoo. The GOH contingent also consisted of 6 sec4s and led by SI Ghui Meng Yang. Everything went smoothly and all the rehearsals did not go down the drain.

Sec 3 NCO camp 2008

.
Sec 3 NCO camp 2008

Over the weekend, we had a 2 days 1 night NCO camp for the sec3s. They played team bonding games, learn how to lead, motivate, solve problems as a group, basic first aid skills, etc. The unit will soon be passed on to the current batch of sec3s, and hope they will do a good job. It was a fruitful camp full of laughter and fun, and it was a great experience for the sec3s. A number of the sec4 NCOs also came to help out with the logistics needed to prepare for the activities. If not for the cadet inspectors, this camp wouldn have been possible, a big thank you to them. Photos will be uploaded soon.

But u can choose to love what u have to do." (:

Training (24/1/07)

.
Today was the release of the olevels results of 2007. Congratulations to past npcc cadets who have graduated and achieved their desired scores. For those that did not do so well, do not feel discouraged, put in your best effort for other major exams, so that you will not regret one day.

There was training today. The sec1s continued to play team-bonding games while the sec2s did a recap on their drills. The sec2s are lacking confidence when doing their drills, resulting in lack of sharpness and sub-standard drills. However, if they put in effort in brushing up on their drills, they have the potential to do well. The sec3s had their NCO course. The day ended shortly and we look forward to the next week's training.

Tomorrow will be the 1st NPDP training. Some of the sec4 NCOs have been selected and hope that they take this chance to perfect their drills and have fun making new friends!

HRC

.
Today, 21 sec4 NCOs were involved in the High Rope Challenge (HRC). There was high elements, much higher then any high elements the sec4s have experienced before. The highlight of the event was the 25m tall (7 storeys high) flying fox. It was a exhilirating experience for all and we all enjoyed it thoroughly. There were several other high elements to experience and even though it was a hot and tiring day, the weariness was worth the fun.

The NPDP (National Police Day Parade) training is also going to begin soon, starting next friday. A few of the sec4 NCOs are selected to be involved in this programme. Hope they learn something meaningful from the training and make more friends. The campcraft team is also training hard every week consistently in preparation for the prelimary rounds on the 15th and 22nd feb for boys and girls respectively. Train hard and the efforts will pay off!

1st training for sec1s..

.
Today was the 1st training session for the new sec1 cadets. Ice-breaking games were played, and they enjoyed the games quite a lot. The sec1s are quite responsive and some have showed enthusiasm during the ice-breaking games. A few of the cadets are still shy and not sure of what is happening in npcc, but as time goes, I am sure they will settle down and get along well with life in npcc. Since the sec1s have joined in our big family, they are one of us, and we hope more bonding and fun is to come.

Also, the High Rope Challenge (HRC) is happening on the 19jan, this coming saturday. Several sec4 NCOs are involved in the HRC and hope that the NCOs will have a meaningful and fun time there. There will be high elements which include obstacle courses and flying fox, etc. This will be a great exposure for the NCOs and a time for them to conquer their fear of heights and boost their confidence. Have fun!

CCA Open House 2008

CCA Open House 2008

Overall, it was a job well done. The fancy drill team put up a steady performance, and it was the 1st time we had a flag party for the fancy drill performance. Cadets did a great job by pulling in some sec1s and persuaded them to join our big family. Thanks to the Cadet Inspectors and seniors for coming to show ur support. Lastly, a big thanks to everyone for making this event a success!

Hong Kong trip 2007

.
Alright a big sorry to all for not updating the blog for such a long time. So this is going to be a reasonably long post to make up for it.

Promotion exercise

Firstly, I would like to congratulate all the newly promoted cadets, especially the newly promoted staff sergeants. As for those who were not promoted, do not feel sad or discouraged, there is still a next time. Just work hard and rewards will be given when due.

Hong Kong trip 2007

Secondly, there were around 30+ cadets who went for the annual npcc overseas trip to Hong Kong. It was a 4days 3nights trip. It sure was an enriching learning experience and a fruitful trip. The Ocean Park was no doubt the highlight of the trip and I am sure most of the cadets enjoyed the thrilling rides on that day. The school exchange with Hong Kong True Light College was a success and we got to understand the education system in Hong Kong much better. The cadets did a lot of shopping with the huge variety of shops selling almost anything. Of course, our legs were aching from the long walk but the weariness was certainly worth it. We visited various famous tourist spots on Hong Kong such as the Repulse Bay, Bohenian Square, Stanley Market, Ladies Street, Victoria Peak, and the Police Museum. The scenery in Hong Kong is great. In addition, we got to experience some first hand farming and the weather in Hong Kong is so cool such that we do not even perspire when farming. Photos were taken and I wil try to upload them if possible. Till then, cya (:

Exams...

.

Alright exams are just around the corner. So the blog also wont be updated much till after the exams. All study hard and the results will show. Gd luck to all for the upcoming exams everyone! Till then, cya (:

Camp LEO 2007

.
Camp LEO 2007

Overall, it was a success and there were many learning points. The group instructors put in their 100% effort to motivate their group members in every activity. Though the mood of the campers during the campfire was quite low, the group instructors did a great job in trying their best to salvage the situation. The campers were exhausted but the fun was certainly worth it. The instructors were independent without relying much on the CIs to help out.

The objective of this camp is to promote team bonding and the unit has certainly bonded much over the 3 days 2 nights camp. The weather was on our side for most of the camp, allowing the campers to have much fun at west coast park. The sec 2s did a great job by guiding the sec 1s throughout the camp. Hope that the bonding of the unit will not only stay in this camp but carry on as time passes. Thanks to the seniors for taking some time out to attend the campfire. Lastly, a big thanks to everyone, especially the officers, CIs and the sec 3s for making this camp a success. Great job sec 3s!

Next week is the unit's promotion exercise. Brush up on your drills and uniform etiquette, put in your best effort to get promoted. Rewards will be given when it is due. Good luck to all for the promotion exercise! Till then, cya (:

.

Sept Holidays!

.
The sept holidays are here!

Hope all cadets enjoy this short holiday and maybe take this opportunity to catch up on their studies. Npcc is an important aspect but studies should not be neglected (:

The annual camp LEO 2007 is approaching on the sep 6th-8th. This is the 1st major camp the sec3s have planned. Certainly hope that the bonding of the unit will be strengthened by this upcoming camp. This camp should be a platform for the sec3s to build on and set a good foundation for more to come! Hope all cadets will enjoy the camp and that the camp will be a success!

Second talk!

.
Hi there! Come on down if you are interested.

From Kyushu to Hokkaido: A 3,300 km, 89-day Cycling Adventure!
Date/Time : 25 August 2007 , 03.00 PM to 04.00 PM
Venue : library@orchard - Programme Zone
Subject : Recreation & Travel (English)
Presenter : Cheng Chin Yuen
Admission : Free Admission

Bicycle touring is definitely one of the harder ways to travel. Riding in cold rain or tackling those windy endless mountain roads that seem to go only up is closer to a mission than a holiday. Find out how this traveller squeezed 89 days in Japan under a S$3900 budget - and that's including airfare. Join us as our traveller shares also the kindness, encouragement and generosity of the many Japanese and expatriates he met and stayed with along this long journey.

ROD Parade 2007

.
Woooooot! Just a short while after Homecoming Dinner, we have another batch joining the Seniors team~~~

Firstly, we would like to thank you for all your efforts and contributions towards our proud Unit! It has not been an easy sail for this batch, still you managed to come to this point together. I am sure, the skills you learnt in HKSS NPCC will never go down the drain. Struggling with limited manpower, last minutes alterations to plans, swift and urgent decision makings, making the high-ups and subordinates please, blah blah.

Next, the CIs are sorry for not being able to attend the ROD Parade 2007. Reason being all of us finish lessons at about 5pm... Come and help Auntie lock gate? Hee hee... Sorry lah, we'll be able to meet at the next gathering.. Maybe Camp Leo 2007 campfire?

What an interesting batch... Gave the Officers and CIs such good "trainings". You know, I know ;) It's a fact that we do not have a va va voom numbers of Sec 4s, but the core always managed to hit on in such a dynamic way. Just look at Camp Leo 2006... Simply impressive.

The bonding

through thin..

.. and thick. Enduring sleepless night together kanna naggings and scoldings ..and jumping around like monkeys...

We laughed together,

sad together,

and fight together!

Rain or sunshine... Once a LEO, always a LEO :)

It was a year ago, but the wish "Good luck for your futre endeavours" holds forever.

Take good care! We'll miss you always! Study well for O and N levels~~~~~~~~ Don't give up!

PS: More photos and albums added under "Photos2"! E.g: PYA Retreat, more of Homecoming Dinner 2007.
