Sec 2 Camp Third Day

Today, we went for the Bukit Timah Nature Walk this morning. Before we went for the walk, we learnt about biofuel, how it is made, and how does it help with our environment. During the walk, our class had a great time learning about the Dairy Farm Nature Reserve, its history, and the many varieties of plants and animals that lived there. As we walked along the nature trail, the trainer stopped many times to show and explain certain variety of flora. We really learned a lot from this lovely middle aged lady who really enjoyed nature. We took many different trails, some even across streams and upslope. We finally came to the visitors centre where a lot of exhibits were displayed including large charts with pictures of the old days. There was even a stuffed tiger with its teeth still intact. After viewing the place, it was time for us to reurn to our base camp. The whole trip took about 4 hours but it was interesting and educational for us as we would not have another chance to go to this type of place again.  - by Brian Ej Amio

Our afternoon activity was 'telematch' but before we could start playing, a powerful thunderstorm spoiled everything. So instead, we went to a large room to prepare for the night campfire. We practised our songs, cheers and also our campfire performance. We had so much fun as our two instructors motivated and encouraged us to sing better. After the rain had stopped, we attempted the 'great wall'. We really had to put our heads together to think of ways of getting our group members over the wall. At first we were worried because we had two 'heavy weights' in our group. After much discussion, we finally found a method of overcoming the problem and got everyone over the wall. Hey! we did it with good team work & team spirit. by Siti
