3rd Annual Drums Ensemble Camp

This year, we did something different. Usually we would have a training camp where our drums instructor would teach us new instruments to play. However this year, Mdm Isnani and Mdm Mislimah organised a fun camp for us.

1st day
We had our breakfast in school. Then, we were instructed to bring any instruments of our choice. We headed to West Coast Park. Our first activity was to introduce ourselves and explained why we chose the instruments. Den, we had a puzzle game where we put up the pieces of a 3D animal puzzles. Faris got 1st. Then, Syafiq and Nazri was appointed the group leaders and they chose their group mates.

We played the Human Sewing game where we had to "sew ourselves" up with a rafia string and Nazri's group was the fastest. We were then told to think of a group name and a cheer. Shafiq's group was named Shafek Batucada and Nazri's group, Corntos, after the 1st prize they won. We headed to the open field to play some more games.

We played the Water Bomb Dog and Bone and Pick up sticks Race. We really had fun playing those games. After lunch, we prepared for our item to be performed the day after, the last day of our camp, using the instruments we chose. It started to rain so at about 3plus, we headed home.

2nd Day
We had lunch at school before heading to East Coast Park. We were given time to practice for our items since it was raining quite heavily. Once Mdm Is and Mdm Mis prepared the BBQ food, we put up our performance. Shafek Batucada won!! After that, we had our BBQ. We then had 1 last game before the prize giving.

We were asked to fill up 2 empty bottles with salt water and the group who managed to fill up first will win. It was very hilarious looking at the boys finding means and ways to fill the bottles up. Some even use their mouths! Shafek Batucada won again.

For prize presentation, we presented the 2008 committee with Cert of Appreciation and announced the new committee for 2009. Shafiq became the new band leader. Zulkhairi our vice chairperson. Level rep for sec 4 fareez, level rep for sec 3 sharil, level rep for sec 2 alfiyan. Congrat gang! We also gave token of appreciation to our seniors, Shafiyan and Faezul for helping out for the 2 days.

Overall, the students were very happy and satisfied with the camp. They hoped for this kind of camp to be continued the following year. Thank you all for your kind participation and help.
