All Form4 and some of the Form5 and Form 3 members of the band involved in the Leadership Training Camp held at Cameron Highlands.
DAY 1All along the way, the bus was filled with laughter and excitement as everyone chat and joke around. We able to visit few places before launching in the camp. In the afternoon, we met our camp commander at the Butterfly Farm. With guidance of workers there, we got chance to go near or even touch some rare animals and insects. Then, we went to
Villa Dahlia. Environment of the apartment is nice and comfortable. Fresh air with clean living room, bed rooms, kitchen and toilets. After checking in and settle down, the first activity started.
4 teams formed with an unique way, include Team
'Axcellent',
'Bee',
'Together' and
'Blue Spirit'. Yeah. In the time provided, we chose team leader and assistant, do team banner and team cheer. Every team introduce their team in a creative and innovative way during presentation. Team leader includes
Yin Ying,
Kar Mun,
Felicia and
Seok Fun. And then we got our own facilitator so called '
lai ma' and '
lai ba' who will take care of us in the camp. Then dinner time. Many people squeeze in to help up teacher to cook. And everyone gathered there to eat and watch astro. Around 8pm, we learned something from the activity '
Comfort Zone'. Then Games '
Copy & Paste' followed with '
Message'. Understanding between team members is needed in the games. And we learned
VAK. V-Visual, A-Auditory and K-Kinesthetic. Lastly, the '
Win Win Games'. We learned to tolerate with each other in our lives. Then bed time.
DAY 2This was an remarkable and memorable day of the camp. Early in the morning, we had morning physical exercise session. After that, the most adventurous and challenging activity -
Amazing Race. Highlights of the day. Woohoo~~
In the amazing race, we were required to finish around twelve tasks within three and a half hour. We needed to be physical and mentally strong to succeed in these tasks. Every team have different experiences. But one thing cannot be deny is that every team every member showed high cooperation and team work to win the games. Leader and every member played their own important role. Everybody shared hardship and adversity together. Eating raw garlic, onion and chilies. Sweats and tears. Walk few
km until feet and legs pain. Take care and help each other. The process was fun and interesting enough thus. Good try and new experiences for us.
And in the afternoon, played '
Organization System' with our facilitators.
At night, it was '
Team Spy' time. Everyone was so serious and tensed during the games. Leader needed to find out spy in team arrange by the camp commander within time given. Through this games, faith, trust and confidence in between team members is tested. After this, bond between every team member became stronger and unbreakable.
DAY 3Last day. After morning physical exercise and breakfast, we had 'the Kim's Games'. Then, team project ~ brainstorming. In this games, everybody rack their brain and come out with all those physics theory just to protect that little egg. Finally, team Axcellent and Blue Spirit succeed where else team Bee and Together failed during the second floor challenge. The last games, 'Mining Company' needs a high understanding among team members as some of the team members need to cover their eyes to play the games. Just team Bee able to finish at the end. Lastly, marks were counted and the winner is .................... team Axcellent. Congratulation!!!
Then, photo taking and autograph session. At around 1pm, we checked out of the apartment and continue our journey at some places like strawberry farm, tea farm and so on. But very unfortunately, it was raining all the time. Therefore, we just stopped by some of the places and left Cameron Highlands earlier than our planning.
Within this few days, we do learned a lots. We tend to work in a team with a harmony group atmosphere. Every team member try to play their part to achieve goals. It is important to get interaction from everyone in the team. We learn to handle conflicts and problems together. And don't ever afraid to fall down as it may lead us to a better way. The camp teaches us to be a better person. We will apply all that we learn in band or even our whole life time.
