Hi all,

The following is an email from the zone,

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Dear Teachers, Officers & Senior NCOs

I am pleased to announce that the Footdrill Course conducted in June-July period has ended.

I would like to congratulate 8 of the 9 participants handpicked from 5 schools for completing and passing the course. Unfortunately, 1 of them did not manage to pass the course as she is unable to turn up for both actual and make-up exam day due to unexpected events. All 9 of them will receive a Certificate of Achievement / Participation, and the 8 of them who passed will receive the Drill Knowledge (CPBS).

I would like to further congratulate the following 3 participants for doing exceptionally well for their exam.

1) Seah Jia Ling Claudia (SNGS)

2) Darrick Chew Jun Jie (PSS)

3) Bronson Ng Bo Yang (BGSS)

As such, they will be appointed as Corps Drill Instructor with a validity of 1 year with effect from date stated in the Letter of Appointment. Also, they will be issued the Footdrill Instructor Badge (Bronze).

Corps Drill Instructors are responsible for upgrading and maintaining their respective Corps Drill Standard. Thus, they should always maintain their peak Drill Standard so as to set a good example for their juniors. However, should their conduct failed to meet the required standards including failing of Footdrill MOI in NCO course, their appointment as Corps Drill Instructor will be revoked with immediate effect.

The participants’ individual results will be sent to their respective account via email. A copy will be sent to the Teachers and Officer-In-Charge as well.

Certificates and Badges will be issued to them when it is ready. Notice will be given to the participants via email or SMS.

I believe that the 9 of them who went through the grueling 3 days course have gained much proper drill knowledge. I trust them to impart the correct knowledge to their juniors.

Lastly, I thank all those who help in one way or another to make this course a success. Thank You.

Regards,

Edmund Tan

CAMP

We hope that those who attended camp had learnt something from it. This year's camp is not as tough compared to previous years, you have to push yourselves to the limit to know what your limits are.

Sec 1s; Learn to respect your seniors and respect will be given to you, your seniors are where they are today because they earned it.

Sec 2s; There are some of you who were very outstanding in camp, showing initiative and taking care of your juniors. But there are also some of you who only know how to order your juniors around and never bothered to help them. You know who you are, if you want your juniors to respect you, lead by example.

Sec 3s; :)

To all; Thanks for feedbacks given and we'll try our very best to provide better food next year!

Good job to the camp ics Darrick and Jiayi, for the great teamwork shown during the camp. We are impressed with the way your delegate jobs, well done! Also, good job to Dingxiang who is the overall best sec 1 camper (:

We hope this camp especially Journey to the West was memorable for everyone!

Photos will be uploaded asap (:

Any other feedback about camp, please send your email to peircesjab.hotmail.com. Thank you!

UG experience, CCA recruitment, Peirce SJAB Games Day

2009-01-24T01:31:00.001-08:00

Hi guys!

For the month of January, we had UG experience, CCA recruitment and Games Day. Most of us took part in CCA recruitment and Games Day and I'm sure you had great fun.

We will have to thank your RICs and AOICs for all the effort put into planning these events. So, from now on, whenever you see Shule, Darrick, Jianqiang, Bervin and Suzanne, say "THANK YOU FOR THE FUN WE HAD IN JANUARY!" and shake their hands (if you want to).

The seniors (as in officers and your graduated seniors) were impressed with the morale of everyone during CCA recruitment day, and I'm sure many Sec 1s were attracted to SJAB partly because of the energy you guys showed during the long long cheer. Well done, Aysha and Vienna for leading the cheer! Good effort to Jonathan, David and Lester too!

As for Games day, i think the sec 1s had alot of fun too, judging from the smiles we had from the 100+ photos the seniors took. Good job to all the Sec 2s/3s who were I/Cs of each group for bonding and leading the group. And a round of applause to the game master for making the Games Day possible :D

A pat on the back for all participants for creating such a lively and fun atmosphere at these events!

____________________________________________________________________

Dear competition team members,

Eat comp, drink comp, sleep comp, dream comp, breath comp. The effort you guys have put in will all be worthwhile when you SWEEP all the prizes at zone comp. Continue to put in your best at trainings.

Comp leaders as follows;

Ambulance,
Senior: Jianqiang
Junior: Darrick

Nursings,
Senior: Jiayi
Junior T1: Vienna
Junior T2: Cheryl

Like what we said at the comp meeting we had on 21st January 2009 (wed) at Ms Hong's homeroom, everything is subjected to changes. You are in the team you are because you compliment each other.

Continue to eat comp, drink comp, sleep comp, dream comp and breath comp!

Sorry people, i know this came a little too late. And there isn't alot of pictures in there, it would be great if you send the photos you have of Nat comp to peircesjab@hotmail.com. I'll retrieve it from there and upload onto photobucket.

If you know of any of your sj mates who have taken alot of pictures during our corp/zone events, do get them to send it to the email if they're willing to :D

These photos are memories of the time you guys have spent with each other, don't let it go to waste! We can print it up and display it during recruitment drive or just put it up on our noticeboard (:

Thanks to all who tagged. Continue keeping the cbox alive :D Also do inform our corp that this blog exists!
