YO! Sorry for updating late as I was ZZZ-ing. HAHA :x.

For those who attended practice today, could you please inform your section mates who were not here on what Mr Samuel told us to do? Tell them about the required playing style, dynamics and whether to play out or not. SYF is about 30+ days away arh! Anyway, good playing today and keep up the effort! For those who are still feeling unwell, GET WELL SOON! Drink lots and lots of WATER and eat fruits! The weather is super weird nowadays so let's try to keep ourselves healthy!

Next practice is on next Wednesday, 2nd March 2011, 230PM SHARP. The same rules apply to those who will be dismissing late from your remedials, Mad Fiesta and so on. Please try to come ASAP because every minute is very precious now. Yeah?


March Band Camp Committee

General Planning: Hui Qin*, Jeremy, Simon, Belle

Games: Isabel*, Esther, Joelle, Jia Min, Kah Min, Deanna

Physical Trainings: Yin Rui*, Gladys

Logistics: Christopher*, Xiao Xuan, Ming Han, Jun Wei, Xin Yi, Shabira, Kevin

Food: Jenna*, Jazreel, Rachelyn, Si Ting

* - Person in-charged of the section


The ROLES of the Committees

  • The objective of this Band Camp is mainly for the approaching SYF. The Sec 1s will be coming too, however, only one hour is allocated for the games. So the Game Committee is strongly encouraged to come up with interesting bonding games.
  • We'll be going for a Band Exchange on the 1st Day (16th). For time wise, General Planning people please consult the teachers. You're supposed to come up with a programme flow for the two days. If there is any doubts or questions, approach the Majors.
  • For the Food Committee, discuss with the teachers on the food for our meals (may include supper). On that day, assign some people to distribute food to everyone. Also, come up with a cleaning-up duty list. Include all sections inside and ensure that duty is carried out properly.
  • For the P.T. Committee, one hour will be allocated for our Physical Training on the 2nd Day. This could be carried out before our breakfast. Try not to conduct exercises that required lots of energy. A few rounds of running is suitable. There will be drill section during the 1 hour section too. The Majors will update you on what to do for the Drills by the next practice. So, just plan on the P.T. first.
  • For the Logistics Committee, your job is not just moving things around. Many people may think that your role is this but they're wrong. What you're required to do for this camp is to find the sleeping domes for us. The Sec1s are not staying over. Discuss with the teachers on the venue. You're also required to arrange sectional venues for all the sections. Also, allocate toilets for our washing up.
Advices
  • Work together as a team. During meetings, listen to everyone's opinions or suggestions before making the final decision. Do not make harsh decisions. Think about the time required, main purpose, venue, people needed to help, etc.
  • Distribute roles to everyone. Don't solo.
  • Make sure that everyone attend the meetings organized for you all. Someone please organise the meeting and inform the Majors the date for the meeting.
  • Deadline for submitting the proposal would be 9th March.
  • The Sec4s seniors will only be seeing through this camp. Everything, including discipline, is in charged by YOU. Assign people to take care discipline, take turns. For instance, asking everyone to move faster/ informing everyone that its meal time/ greeting the conductors. Falling in will be conducted by the Majors.
  • For queries, consult the teachers (mainly), Majors and conductor.
  • Don't be so stressed with this project. As long as everyone is doing their roles well, thing will be done swiftly and nice.
  • If any of the Sec3 member name is not in the committee list, please inform the Majors immediately! If people is not attending meeting without valid reasons, do something about it or inform us. Do something = take care of his/her role or inform him/her on the updates.
  • The teachers and us expect this camp to be successful and meaningful. So, do your best and good luck!
