Adventure Training Camp on 18/07/2014-20/07/2014

There will be the Adventure Training Camp held on the 18th-20th July. Below are several essential points to take note during the camp. Bus 1: If your lessons end at 12.35pm, you are to ensure that your school bags are placed in the NPCC room by 1.15pm (if you want) and you must fall-in at the foyer by 1.20pm. Bus 2: If your lessons end at 1.05pm and for Muslim cadetswho have Friday prayers, you are to ensure that your school bags are placed in the NPCC room by 2.05pm (if you want) and you must fall-in at the foyer by 2.10pm. Next, as Sec 2 ATC and Sec 3 STC is a promotion criteria and your attendance contributes a significant number of points to UOPA, please ensure that everyone from the Sec 2 and Sec 3 squads know about ATC / STC and attend ATC/STC next Friday to Sunday (18-20 July 2014). Lastly, just is a gentle reminder of our expectations and goals for you guys during ATC/STC, everyone of us should strive to achieve the following goals during the camp: 1. Excel and Shine: As a cadet from VSNPCC, all of us should aim to do our best in every activity during ATC/STC and put in 100% effort (Nil Sine Labore) to be the best that we can be as Victorians (Performance Excellence). 2. Persevere and Endure As Victorians, all of us should aim to go beyond our comfort zone and participate actively in all activities during ATC/STC. We will definitely feel tired and have sore muscles at some point during the camp, but it is important that we push ourselves beyond our limits during the camp and we will be amazed at what we can actually achieve when we look back. However, do sound off immediately to your group instructors or the officers if you are injured or feeling unwell at any point during the camp itself. 3. Look out for one another Look out for your fellow campers during ATC/STC, regardless of which unit they come from. Our Muslim friends from our area will be fasting during ATC/STC, so it is important that we keep a look out for them to ensure that they are feeling ok during the activities. Thank you.
