Phoenix Blog Challenge Update

After reviewing the blogs for the first time, we find that most of the posts on the blogs are made by the platoon mentors. This should not be the case.

The blogs are by you, for you. It is a way for you to do with your platoon mates what you cannot face to face. It is a means of bonding, for a more cohesive platoon overall.

SO, we would like to see more active participation from you guys. We hope we have made ourselves clear. Anyway good job to Andrew and Tian Yi for visiting the blogs :)

Here are the current projected standings:

Iota
Epsilon
Omega

Keep the posts coming :D

Phoenix Questionnaire 2

Hi all~ A bit late but here it is!

What RCK value (ie the HINIVUU values) do you think is the most important? Send in your responses to rircb60@googlegroups.com.

Each valid response will be worth 10 points, and the top response will be worth 50 points, and will be posted on the blog. Deadline will be 7th March, Wednesday, 9.30 pm.

Thanks, and enjoy the rest of your weekend.

RIRC Treasure Chest + New Notes

Hi Guys~!

The RIRC Treasure Chest is finally updated and there are many updated notes for the new syllabus for all Red Cross Subjects in there.

Do read through or print out the notes which are definitely useful for your future accreditations.

Gold Accreditations

Hi!

Phoenix Blog Challenge 1

Hi all.

Ever wondered what the uses are for your platoon blogs? Here they are now!

From today until the 10th of march, we will be observing the three platoon blogs. These will be a breakdown of the points:

If a post is made everyday by a different person everyday from tomorrow until the 10th of march, 50 points will be awarded. Note that the posts must be of sufficient relevance to our lives (ie no posts saying stuff like yesnoyesno for the entire post) and must not contain sensitive issues. If there are not enough people, you may repeat.

If the tagboard is actively updated everyday (we must be able to see DISCUSSIONS), 50 points will be awarded.

Blogskin and appearance - If we see a nice new blogskin (custom made ones), we will give either 30, 40 or 50 points depending on whether it is presentable.

Special point section:
- Posts related to Red Cross subjects, humour (NO DARK HUMOUR ALLOWED), or how to handle daily issues (such as the latest post on "stress") will be awarded 5 points each*
- Videos of platoon mates in action (only on RC subjects, such as knot tying and bandage tying, and video must be >1 minute) will be awarded 10 points each (must be of at least 1 minute)*
- Pictures of platoon mates will be awarded 5 points each (no repeating the same person)*
- Multimedia such as podcasts, if working (with proper music) will be awarded 20/30 points

*Get one IC from each platoon to compile and send to rircb60@googlegroups.com. Only 1 final submission is allowed.

Year 3s can also participate.

That's all, and have fun :)
