Transport to the first site and from the last site would be provided. The aim of the hike is to visit 3 heritage sites (Singapore City Gallery; Singapore Civil Defence Gallery; Connaught Drive) to obtain the Heritage Badge.
Through this hike, we would get to know more about the history of Singapore. At the end of the Hike, cadets should be more familiar with Singapore’s heritage and past, and realize the importance of the preservation of our cultures.
We hope that it would allow the cadets to learn more about Singapore through the games and puzzles. Cadets are reminded to echo all instructions loudly for everyone to hear, walk briskly throughout and to observe silence in museums unless otherwise stated.

Attendance is compulsory unless you have a valid reason.

Attendance for ALL practices is COMPULSORY. You have already committed yourself when you've agreed to take part in this parade. There is only 4 practices, please.

NAPFA

Greetings.
NAPFA is coming just round the corner! I am sure that all of you can pass de(: Have FAITH! Keep the fighting spirit in you, especially for the 2.4km run!! Keep telling yourself 'I can do it. can do it. I can do it.' Still worried about NAPFA? 'Fraid not! Cause..here are some interesting tips i have found over the net. Hope that it'll help(:

2.4km Walk-Run
'Golden rules' that you should bear in mind:
1. Although it is called the 2.4km Walk-Run test, you are most likely not going to make it if you happen to stop running and start walking!
2. Everyone has a different level of fitness. Understand (and accept) your own fitness level! Don’t dash right at the start just because everyone else is doing so! You don’t have to stick close to the “herd” because after a couple of minutes, the “herd” will be dispersed anyway!
3. Begin with an above average jogging pace (absolutely no way you can slow jog because this is an aerobic endurance test).
4. Think of picking up speed very, very gradually.

Shuttle Run
This station requires a burst and accelerate quickly and powerfully, and then to decelerate quickly towards the pick-up point. You might wonder...how am i supposed to sprint like that? Well, your arm movement is very important. It dictates the movement of your legs. In order words, our arms move to propel your legs. (pss..trying sprinting with your arm crossed. You will know what i mean)

Tips for acceleration:
1. Start with smaller stride lengths and then increase gradually.
2. At the start of the acceleration, the entire body is like leaning at about 45 degrees forward, forming a straight line from the head to the foot that is in contact with the ground.
3. Body will return to an upright position as you attain faster speed.
4. Strike the ground with the ball of your feet as you land, not the heels.

Tips for a speedy turn:
1. Rotate torso powerfully to turn body back and face the next turning/ending point.
2. Cross over hind leg as you turn your body.
3. Keep body leaning forward so that you can explode into acceleration mode as quick as possible.

I have posted tips for only 2.4km Run-Walk and Shuttle Run. This is becuase it is usually the 'toughest' for most girls. However, if you have problem with other stations, DO email me at alisa_lim1992@hotmail.com or you can just drop by the RCR(:

When NAPFA has ended for every cadet, each squad is required to hand in an informal list tittled: NAPFA achievement. (whether it is A, B, C..)

For now, JIAYOU! ALL THE BEST!:D

From the VIs

Firstly, congratulation on completing your mid-years (I know it’s rather late). Hope you have all fair well enough. If you have not, worry not; Make use of this holiday to catch up in whatever you are lacking in. I am sure you will do well for your final year exam.

Secondly, I need to thank everyone their help in tracking down ‘blah’. I have now confirmed that ‘blah’ IS NOT a member of TKGRCY :) . Apparently, he/she is just some busybody who has nothing better to do. This event shall and will end here. Thank You to all those who have help in one way or another.

Next, to all juniors, sec1s or sec2s, we, the VIs, NEED to hear from you. If you have anything you think needed to be change, improve on or you think is very unreasonable, outdated, please feel free to email any of us. (My email add: evonneyanying@gmail.com , Ying Qi’s email add: yingqi1236@gmail.com ) DO NOT, DO NOT bottle up anything. If you want changes we NEED to hear form you. Help us; help yourself to make TKGRCY a better CCA for all.

Last, but not least, happy holidays. Enjoy your holidays. Have Fun.
