This morning, our new recruits joined us for parade.
Our recruitment for this year is good. We have 18 new Boys and 2 new officers who join us.
During parade, we played a drill game which we truly enjoyed! Our new Boys had their uniform measurement taken.

Boys Brigade Day falls on 12th January and this year, it was on a Friday. All Boys had to come to school in their BB full uniform.
We had our 1st parade in that afternoon and formed our new squads.
Once again, our BB Boys and GB girls were part of the National Day Observance Ceremony. Our Boys and girls marched in the state flag as part of the ceremony. They did well. All of the teachers and officers were so proud of them.
Well done, Boys and girls!
Good Evening!

This post is for the new recruits. I believe most recruits have received their new BB Uniforms.
We have them:
1 shirt
1 pair of shorts
1 pair of shoes
1 cap
2 shoulder titles that say: 75th Company
1 shoulder flash (for badges)
Please check and ensure that your child has received the right items.
Do note that you have to sew the shoulder titles to the sleeves of the shirt as shown below.
Thank you!
Have a blessed Lunar New Year!
Last Friday was our recruitment camp. It is a one night camp for our new Boys to experience what is camping like.
After taking our attendance, we started to pitch our tents immediately. Pitching the 6-man tent was definitely not an easy feat. One of our tent collapsed when the wind was became too strong. Therefore, for our safety, we slept in the hall that night.
After tent-pitching, we prepared for dinner. Well, to be exact, we had to cook our own dinner. We used one mess tin to cook our instant noodles. The instant noodles tasted extra delicious as it was cooked by us. Yum yum!
One boy commented, "I thought it was easy to cook instant noodles. Now I know it's not easy!"
After dinner, we cleaned up our area & proceeded to the auditorium for singspiration and devotion.
Our devotion topic was about discipline. After that, we learned how to bandage an injured person and knot tying. Soon, it was time for supper.
Then we washed up and prepared for bed.
There was a great turn-up on Saturday, 17th January. A total of 20+ new recruits joined us!
Let me extend my warm welcome to our new Boys and their parents.
During devotion, we learnt that we should honour our parents. That will be our focus for this year. Love for parents and family.
We'll be having a recruitment camp on Friday 23rd January to Saturday 24th January. It is mainly to let the new recruits experience camp. Boys who are keen may join us too. Please do submit your consent form to John Sir (Mr Chan), Mary Ma'am (Miss Chia) or myself Kelly Ma'am (Mrs Lye).
See you at the camp!
