The details are as follows:
Date: Wednesday, 4th March 2009
Time: 3.30pm to 6.30pm
Reporting Venue: Raffles Square in full scout uniform (for Muster Parade)
Things to bring: Writing materials, PE kit
Job Week will be coming soon on 14th March and 15th March (for ventures, 16th March as well), so do prepare yourselves well for this event!
Seeing that there's just so much to do to prepare yourselves, you should start preparing now!
The first of the many preparations would be:
Plan your Job Week routes!
I would like to see a detailed plan of your Job Week routes, which should include the following:
1) The areas which you want to do for Job Week
2) How you would want to go there
3) What exactly do you want to do
4) Contingency plans
In case you don't quite understand how it works, here's an example:
eg.
Day 1
1) From Raffles Institution to Ang Mo Kio Ave 99
Take bus 000, alight at bus-stop in front of block 888
Comb blk 777 to blk 666
if blocks are taken, take bus 111 to Ang Mo Kio Ave 555
Comb blk 444, 424, 404, 383, 363, 343, 323
2) From Ang Mo Kio Ave 99 to Toa Payoh St 44
(and it continues)
-----------
When planning your Job Week routes, do be realistic with what you can do. Set yourself high, yet reachable targets.
I would like the PLs to collate his patrol's responses (Venture Chairman to collate Venture responses as well) and send them to me by 7th March 2009 6pm.
For secondary 1s, you need not hand in your Job Week routes yet. However, do think hard about roughly where you would want to go. You will be given more advice on Wednesday.
Everyone, do look out for more Job Week emails to come!
Thank you.

Jeremy Tan

Media (video/audio spot) USD 200.00 and a certificate
Written (essay) USD 200.00 and a certificate
Poster USD 200.00 and a certificate
