Visit to State Courts
To end off the year (and after observing that we have not visited any external organisation this year), I have requested for a visitation-slot to the State Courts. Yes, you will get a tour of one of the many courts (Supreme Court, Subordinate Court, Family Court etc) during the guided tour.
As I did not mention this visit in the year-end letter to your parents (many apologies from me), I have asked the Courts to grant me 11 slots (10 cadets and 1 TO). I will give you further details when the administrative officer had given their reply.
The requested date is on Wednesday, 19 November 2014, from 10am to 11.30am. Venue is the State Courts (Havelock Road). Transportation is provided to and from school (but you may also take the NEL to Chinatown Station if you are late. Ahem!).
For now, please register your interest as a comment here, and inform your respective squad ICs as well. Your squad ICs are:
Sec 3: Woo Guanting, Ricky Yap
Sec 2: Jeremy Hang, Fong Zheng Sen
Sec 1: Josef Chiang, Yang Yang Nico

Make-Up ATC/STC 2014 for Sec 2s/3s who missed ATC/STC
I asked you about the make-up ATC/STC dates (10-12 October 2014), but none of you got back to me or the other TOs as to whether you would be keen to go.
Please leave a comment here to tell us your decision so that we can make the necessary arrangements with Area 9.
If nobody still replies,
(1) there would not be any make-up ATC/STC
(2) you would not be promoted this year (for being irresponsible)
(3) we will not replace ATC/STC with some other activity of similar rigour
Final Deadline: Tomorrow (Sunday, 20 July 2014), 11.59pm.
Please pass the message to your friends if they do not log in to Facebook or check the blog.

Uniform Issues
Uniform Issues
-------------------
Most of the Sec 1s and new Sec 2s should have got your uniforms by now, although some of you may be missing some uniform-parts. Please do not throw away the uniform packing-slip (the piece of paper with your name and sizes, usually attached to one of the boxes) so that you would be able to exchange the uniform-parts if they are too big/small/torn/etc.
Beret
-------
Watch this video on how to season your beret:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4c0V4Vnb9dk
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4c0V4Vnb9dk
Uniform
----------
(1) Your uniform must be ironed, but MUST NOT be starched.
(2) Place the uniform in a coat-cover (ask your parents; most houses have at least one lying around).
(3) Be careful not to crease your uniform when you transport it or when you hang it on to a support.
(4) If you do not have a coat-cover, carefully fold the uniform, and slowly place it into a plastic-bag with hard backing (e.g. those from clothes shops such as Levi's or baju kurung shops). You may need to place the uniform between two books if you are worried that the uniform may shift and be crumpled.
(5) For the boys, your shirts must not have muffin-tops, so shirts must be tucked in into your underwear. For the girls, your belts are moveable, so be careful not to move it too much when you are in uniform.
Shoes/Boots
----------------
(1) Before you can polish the shoes/boots, you need to coat them with at least 5 layers of Kiwi polish. (How? Use the tip of your pointer finger to dip into the kiwi, and gently run circles on the material. Let it dry for 15-30 minutes before you apply the next coating. BE CAREFUL not to let any Kiwi stain your fingernails! Wait until the coat is dry before you go on.)
(2) To POLISH the shoes/boots, take a smooth cotton rag (or old singlet), use your pointer-finger to dip the rag/singlet into a bowl of water (you can use the Kiwi cover), dip lightly into the Kiwi to get a small patch of Kiwi on to the rag/singlet (size of 5-10cent coin). Gently run the pointer-finger-and-cloth over the region to be polished in CIRCLES. BE PATIENT! If the coatings are sufficient and sufficiently dry, the shine will appear after about 5-10 minutes of polishing. Polish in sections! You cannot polish the entire shoe/boot at one go!
(3) Standard: The boots/shoes will shine like a mirror when they are done.
(4) Warning! DO NOT BURN your boots/shoes! That is considered as vandalism, and they are ruined after that. You will need to pay for a new pair of shoes/boots.
Investiture
-------------
Please get your uniforms ready for every training. The CIs and NCOs will inspect your uniform during the muster parade (2pm to 2.15pm). Muslim boys can report at 2.30pm. We aim to hold an investiture to welcome you to the NPCC unit (we will give you the Sengkang formation-sign then) by the end of Term 3.
Ask your male TOs to coach you on how to polish your shoes/berets after school if you need their assistance. (The male TOs still have to do this for their reservist-preparations.)
Have fun!

National Camp 2014 (for Sec 3 Cadets)
Any takers, Sec 3s? :)
--------------------------------------------------
The National Police Cadet Corps is privileged to be the organiser of the National Camp 2014, supported by 9 other Uniformed Youth Organisations (UYOs) in Singapore. The Camp will be held on 15 - 18 August 2014 at the Home Team Academy (HTA). Participation is open to Secondary 3 (age 14-15 years old) members of the UYOs.
2. The theme of National Camp 2014 is “Learning For Life, For All”, anchored on the Education Minister’s Workplan Seminar speech on 25 September 2013. The camp programme aims to provide a fun-filled yet challenging experience for the campers. Participants can look forward to a variety of indoor and outdoor activities such as the .22 Revolver Live Experiential Shoot, Archery, Aero-Modelling, Rescue and Evacuation, put up by the various UYOs.
3. The National Camp 2014 aims to bring the members of the different UYOs together to achieve the following objectives:
a) To build camaraderie amongst the participants;
b) To foster racial harmony and enhance social cohesion; and
c) To create opportunities for learning of personal Core Values and 21st Century Competencies through experiential learning.
4. An email to inform and seek school leaders’ support for the National Camp 2014 has been sent out by the Executive Committee of National Camp 2014. We are pleased to invite each unit to nominate 1 cadet to participate in the National Camp. Each unit should also nominate 1 reserve for the Camp, in the event that the nominated cadet is unable to attend the camp due to unforeseen circumstances or if there are vacancies that surface nearer to the camp.
5. The nomination will be on a first-come-first serve basis. The endorsed original nomination form must reach HTCC HQ for your nomination to be successful.
6. Each participant is required to pay a participation fee of $30.00 (Singapore Citizens and Permanent Residents) or $160.00 (others), which will include the cost of all meals, lodging, transport to & fro HTA, use of camp facilities and a camp kit inclusive of a Camp t-shirt, a Camp cap and a water bottle, among others. The payment may be made by the following methods:
Government and Government Aided Schools
Campers can choose to pay the school by 1) cash, 2) cheque or through 3) Edusave. Schools could also opt to sponsor their students involved in the Camp. Finance and Development Division (FDD) will subsequently deduct the relevant total sum, which is based on the number of Campers, from the School Operating Fund (SOF) via IFAAS. The deduction request from NPCC HQ will be made on 18 July 2014, two weeks after nomination closes.

STC is back to 6-8 June 2014!
Dear Sec 3s
Mdm Oen announced during the Staff Meeting today (Wednesday, 28 May 2014) that she had postponed the Sec 3 trips to Guangzhou due to the typhoons. Add on to the postponed trips for Vietnam due to civil unrest, the Sec 3s are relatively free now.
As such, the TOs (with AC Vincent Loh's blessings), have decided to rejoin the Survival Training Camp (STC) with Area 7 from 6th to 8th June 2014. You will receive the consent-form tomorrow (Thursday, 29 May 2014).
Those of you involved in the ALIVE programme will still attend that programme before you leave for the camp earlier on the 8th. You may need to join the Muslim boys after mosque, if you cannot leave too early.

SI Sri Kanthan never failed to impressed us when we were Police National Service trainees. He's a legend, and someone who inspires others and leads by example. Formerly the SI School, trainees had to march properly and observe their turnout and bearing, or they would have to brace themselves for THE nagging.
The Old Police Academy had much to offer (including the camaraderie and its share of ghost stories), but it would remain in our hearts for a long time...
