Cadet-Link Activity attendance

Hey RIRC,

RIRC will be organising a Cadet-Link Activity with the links of De La Selle School on next Thursday, 19/5. This activity will be held after school, from 2.10pm to 4.30pm. Time for lunch as well as transport to the school will be provided. As such, we need you all to indicate your attendance on this link: http://goo.gl/forms/jqqRQDeu9d. The purpose of this activity is to allow the links of De La Selle School to have fun, and encourage them to join Red Cross as their CCA in secondary school. As such, we will be organising games for the links, and you all will be helping out in organising these games, by conducting the games for them on the actual day. More information will be released at a later date. This activity is a chance for you to interact with the links, and know them better, and also an opportunity for you to get more people to join Red Cross. Do note that this activity is a compulsory event, so if you are absent, you will need to have a valid excuse. Thank you :)

Hi Sec 2s:

Please prepare your RCU and have it on you by Feb 15 (Monday) morning at 6.40 am Raffles Square . You can change out of your RCU after the parade is over (wear school uniform).

Main things to take note in the parade:

• Only do commands for 'baris'. 'Kawalan kehormatan' commands are for Guard-Of-Honour (NCC).
• No need to salute during national anthem.
• Before pledge, do not auto raise hand. Wait for command to be given (command is ta'at sedia). Timing is check, up. Put your fist to your chest at up.
• After pledge, do not auto lower hand. Wait for command to be given (command is sedia). Timing is check down. Put your fist back down at down.
• No need to salute when hormat is given during the laying of wreath.
• Look down during the 1 minute of silence and look back up afterwards.
• Do a senang diri when keluar baris is given.
