Wednesday 28th January 2009 Official Meeting 3-5.30

Hey :)
sorry for the late post...

Okay, the meeting on Wednesday was for the Sec 1s. So, at 3pm, we fell in at the field. Erika was there too. :) Oriole was in charge of the flag. Everyone fell in and then the colour party took over. The flag was not broken too successfully so we had to fall out. We changed out of our guides uniform and fell in again. After the flag broke, we all had to fall out and run to Computer Lab. 4.

Ms Lakshmi was there and she gave a small introduction about guides to the Sec 1s who were joining us, and told some of us to share our experiences about guides. Bridget volunteered and briefly talked about what activities we hold and her thoughts and feelings about being a guide.

Next, the PLs showed everyone the powerpoint presentation they had specially prepared for the Sec 1s. They gave an introduction about what guides is all about, and the structure of everyone involved, i.e the "hierarchy"- from the Guiders to the CL to the PLs, the PSes and the members. All the PLs and PSes were introduced too.

Next, the PLs told the Sec 1s that we meet up on every Wednesday and alternate Mondays, and that the school rules, such as wearing white-based track shoes or canvas shoes with school socks, still apply during meetings. Then the PLs moved on to the activities that we take part in. They covered dragon boating, combined camps (including pioneering and orienteering), campfires, courses e.t.c, and explained what each of these activities meant.

Next, everyone went out to the parade square and had some ice-breakers. We played double whacko. Some of us paired up with the Sec 1s and introduced them to the other guides. We had quite alot of fun. :) We played dog and bone next. We were divided into 2 teams, and the first team to earn 15 points wins, while the other team had to do a forfeit. The forfeit was to lay on the ground with our legs up and sing Gako with the actions.

Next, everyone gathered around and the PLs showed us some of the uniforms that they have confiscated. We had to point out what was wrong and some of us had to correct the uniforms. After that, we fell in, as it was nearly 5.30. We listened to some of the announcements. Ms Lakshmi told us that the CIP at the Guides House was cancelled as another school had submitted their names first. We had some other anouncements and then fell out, thanked Ms Lakshmi and the PLs, collected our wallets and went home. :D

Okay, that's it for now! I'll load the photos for Sec 1 Orientation and CCA Day asap. Sorry for the delay! :(

Thanks.
