Phoenix Questionaire

The Pheonix Questionnaire returns!
For those of you who don't know, the pheonix questionnaire is a question each week which you can answer to earn platoon points for your platoon. The best response will be awarded with additional points!
This week's question is...

What is the most important thing that you and your team should have during a firedrill? Why do you think so?

This "thing" can be anything: it does not have to be a physical object.

Each response is worth 15 points, while the best response is given 50 points!

Send in your responses by 3rd July, Tuesday, before 9pm to rircb61@googlegroups.com for your response to be awarded points.

Dismissal time: 11th June, Monday, 1300 hours.

Dismissal location: RI

Have fun, and make friends with people from other schools!

Platoon points and Best Sec 1 and 2 for Himara

Hi,

The long-awaited platoon points for Himara are here!

Epsilon: 610 points
Iota: 595 points
Omega: 565 points

We apologise for the delay, because it took us some time to collate the points and moderate them. We moderated the points a lot to prevent them from outweighing the platoon points earned during normal trainings too much.

Don't worry if your platoon lost out slightly - the platoon points are still very close, so it's still very possible to catch up even if your platoon is lagging behind somewhat.

As for the best sec 1 and 2, we've chosen Aloysius and Li Yuan respectively after some discussion. As such, Iota will receive 100 points (50 points for each). But don't be discouraged if you haven't won it, since you'll have a chance in future camps (like November camp this year). Learn from the winners and you might be able to be the winner next time (since we try not to let people win twice in a row).

There's no real "secret technique" or anything - just be enthusiastic, be a good batchmate or platoonmate to your friends, and be disciplined. We don't demand perfection or anything, and we believe anyone can get this award if only he gives his all.

We'll have some rewards ready for the two winners on the first training after the holidays (T2W1 Monday) :D. So don't pon training :P.

Enjoy the rest of your holidays!

Rendezvous with destiny to reign and to serve

Hi.
This is awesome. And funny.
Take it as DVOTW edition number <whatever it is>
:)

In any case, good job with surviving Himara. Unless you didn't come. In which case, boo.
We hope that you were really inspired by all the achievements of the past batches. Those people, our long string of our (spiritual) "ancestors", didn't have all our fanciful stuff to work with - no Facebook/twitter/myspace/friendster/telephones (omgwtfbbq how does one do it without telephones) or whatever it is. However, they still managed to achieve excellence with the unit -- and it wasn't by any miracle, or because people back then was magically infused with power two times more than what we have now. No, it's because they were committed. They were committed to RIRC, and they strove and fought hard to bring glory to the unit.
Keep in mind that they were the exact same ages as you guys are when they managed to win all those competitions, achieve all those achievements (hurr) and most importantly, develop themselves and others into people with fine, outstanding characters. If those people, lacking all the luxuries that we possess now can do it, so can you.

See you guys when school reopens. We hope that your warrior spirit's still there ;)

More awesome dance videos now to make up for the long hiatus :)

Yay. This guy's self-taught (i.e. loads of talent and all) and bloody pro. So yeah.
Anyways, here's one more with a VERY cool concept

That's all for this week. So yeah.


Himara!
Hoo-hah!
Sighing off,
~Your sirs

Committee chart for 2012-2013

Hi everyone,

Here's our new committee chart. If you have any questions about what each person is supposed to do, feel free to ask on the chatbox. But you should understand roughly what the chairperson and vice-chairperson do. The chief specialists and training executive will be the ones deciding how much you're going to enjoy your lessons and whether you get your badges. The projects executive is in charge of extra events like PN and such. Admin executive just does admin - logistics, attendance, keeping track of badges, money, etc. As for PMs, if you still don't know what they do...

We hope to be able to lead and serve you well as NCOs for the coming year, so do give us your support so we can bring RIRC to even greater heights.
