After this camp experience, I have overcome my phobia of the dark after the night game. I have also made closer bonding with my fellow Sec 1 cadets. I find the Sec 3 seniors very thoughtful. They give up on the noodle package to me which left one package only and they have to share it despite being hungry.
I realised that teamwork and trust among the team members is important during the teambonding games that we had. For example, the egg-parachute, we need to discuss about how we should make the egg not to crack by the end of the experiment. We also need to have trust in each other when playing the night activity.
I found the drills are nice. When I went home after the camp, I practice the drills that I have learned and found that I am like a real police officer in the national day parade. Although I am not sure about the names of the command given by my seniors, I will try to remember bit by bit and execute the correct moves. I look forward to learning more commands.
I look forward to the Sec 2 camp in the second year. I heard that we can handle real guns in the second year. I am so excited!

From 16th-18th March, which was during the holidays, several Sec 1 cadets and I went to the NPCC Sec 1 Recruitment Camp. Some of the activities during the camp were tiring, such as the Physical Training, but I feel that feeling tired is not the main point. I have learnt a lot during the camp, such as participating actively in the games prepared by our seniors. I am sure that will benefit in future as being active is good instead of being dull and not to do anything. Although it might not be my best performance throughout the camp, but I will work better for future NPCC trainings. We also learned some cheers such as Purple Light, Peace by the River actions and the song itself and Flea Fly (Versions Of Flea Fly: Flo, Motorcar, Mosquito and Area’s 6 version of Flea Fly). Even though not all the sec 1 cadets would be selected into the NPCC squad, I do hope all of us would get selected into the squad.

On 16, 17 & 18 of March we had the sec1's selection camp. On the first day it was the opening of the camp, so the Singapore flag, school flag and the NPCC flag was raised. After that we had P.T. and then my squad mates were placed in different groups named SpongeBob, Patrick, Mr. Krabs, Squid ward and Sandy. After that we had ice breaking games followed by lunch. After lunch, my squad mates went to the computer lab to do a competition that is to design a t-shirt for the smoke-free campaign. After that my squad mates did some basic drills and was introduced to a new drill and then my squad mates was dispersed to their own group for the campfire preparation. At night we sang songs, play night game, had a debrief and then went off to sleep. On the 2nd day, we woke up early for the trekking at Harbourfront. Before the trekking, we had P.T. and breakfast. When we reached Harbourfront we had to walk up the stairs, up the canopy walk and the bridges. We had to endure with the hot weather until we reached the final destination. It was a tiring journey but a fun experience when going for the trekking. When we return, we learnt two new drills taught by the sec3's and then had a short master parade. After that we had the last minute campfire preparation to prepare for the real campfire on that evening. The campfire started by singing songs with the sec3's leading and then watched different groups performing their skits, songs and cheers. After the campfire ends, me and my squad mates were supposed to have night game, but since there is insufficient time, we sat at the amphitheatre and hear ghost stories. After that we had night walk. For the night walk, everyone in every group was blindfolded except for the person right in front as they are the ones who guide the groups along the way full of obstacles. After the night walk we had a debrief and then went off to sleep. On the last day, we played games like dog and bone, water bomb, bamboo pole and the rubber band game. After the games, all of the groups had to do area cleaning. The sec3's was not present as they were headed to the Head quarters. After the area cleaning my squad mates went to the bunk to take all their stuffs and then assemble outside the general office. Outside the general office, we had the prize presentation then followed by the lowering down of the flag and the camp was declared closed and my squad mates returned to their HOME SWEET HOME!

The camp opening on first day, they raise up the NPCC flag. After that we have to do physical training. Next they break us into groups and I'm in SpongeBob’s group. The first ice breaking game was 'name game'. We have to remember our friends name in our own group, or else we have to do forfeit. Next game was 'Wacko'. Then it’s lunchtime! It was easy for me because during my P6 camp, I learn how to cook using mass tin. After lunch, we went to computer lab for t-shirt competition design for the Sec1.
Next was team bonding. My favourite was the parachute because it will be our dinner if it doesn't crack or break. But all the groups’ egg broke and cracked. Next was our basic drills, then we discuss about campfire preparation. Next we bathe then have our dinner. We again have campfire preparation. After that we went for debrief and lights out!
The next day after we've report, flag raising, do physical training and have our breakfast, we went for trekking. We've to walk 16km from Harbourfront to Kent Ridge. After that, we've our lunch and then drills. After that was muster parade but some of the Sec1 went for interview. And then the Sec3 taught us the campfire song and after that we have our dinner. Next we have our campfire! Some of the group acted and did cheers. After the campfire, we have to drink a mixture of hundred plus, lemon and others. It taste sour, sweet, bitter and a litter bit of spicy. Sour represents something bad. Sweet represents happiness. Bitter represents glumness. And Spicy represents hard work. Next was the ghost stories from our sirs and madams and we played a game while waiting for the night walk. After that was night walk. Everyone in the group has to be blindfolded except the leader. One person in each group was taken away. After that we have debrief and lights out!
The last day, after we've done our flag raising, physical training and breakfast, we played a game. We played bamboo pole, dog n bone, pass & catch water bombs using poncho, caterpillar and pass rubber band using toothpick. Then we went for area cleaning. Different group, different area. Then we had flag lowering. Then it was prize presentation. The camp was then closed! That’s all for the reflection.

Last Friday, 27/2/09 At about 2pm, Alvin and Alan sir conduct a slide show and they were talking about “Crime Prevention.” In the talk, our CIs told us some of the common ways how the theft takes the opportunity to commit crimes. And one of the ways is to breaks into our house and the Industrials. The examples are, when doors are forced open, locks and catches are cur and enter by cutting the fences. To prevent being a victim of this crime, try not to carry a lot of jewelries, large amount of cash, set security alarm systems entry, use good quality closed padlock, light up your house and you should not keep large sum of money in your house and instead, save it inside your bank. And you can also install a camera at the entrance door. And also, if you saw any theft or robbery, please dial 999 and informed the police. After the slide show, test was given and it was quite easy to do as most of the questions are related to the slide show. After that, we had our master parade then, we went to the parade square to practice our dance for the NPAP. After the dance we left the school. Lance Corporal LOGIS.
