Sec 3 Camp

For many students 3 days 2 nights camp means - NO SCHOOL = NO NEED TO STUDY = LOTS OF FUN.

Well, to me (being a teacher aka GURU) it means the students lose the precious curiculum time that could make a difference in their mid year exam.

On the other hand, i'm glad they have such camps to explore their individual strengths and weakness. They get to work with their classmates to build a better relationship and better understand the unity and diversity among their peers.

The breakdown of the camp is as follows:

First day=> Get to distination Diary Farm MOE adventure camp site. Settle into the dormitory thats being allocated to them. Classes were spilt into 2 groups with each one group having aasigned a trainer. Activities for the day : Hiking Bukit Timah Hill followed by telematch and preparation for campfire performance. Oh, forgot to mention the night hike/walk!

Second day=> Due to insufficient facilities, we went down to camp christine to do Kayaking and rafting. Following that was High elements such as absiling, flying fox and rockclimbing...... Campfire

Third day=> clean up the area, do some reflections and then back to camp.
