Operation LIVE!
I believe it must have been a wonderful and enjoyable camp especially for the participants who went for it, the Sec 2s of my school. Anyway it was some sort of a military style kind of camp, although I sense it might be tough at times, but can see the students did learn much on discipline and also listening to instructions.
I went down as an overseeing teacher as well as a few other teachers and we too had our share of fun! Haha.. I never did get such chance to talk to my collegue Vannan and Chen Lan and never knew they were so funny and jokable! It was a good time for me just to know them better and also to be able to see the students outside classroom and school.
The students actually do behave very differently, especially for some, compared to back in class. I was suprised at some candidates who actually manage to get the best platoon medal and in fact are actually those who tend to disturbe the teacher's lesson during class time! Now you know what camp can do to a person! Haha.. Tame them down, or maybe it is just something that the student feels more comfortable in and hence is able to display his capabilities and to show case the talent he/she has which is not able to be natured in classroom or school settings. I also believe form most of them, they might also take on their responsibilities better here as they know they can be someone in the platoon.
I believe that there is a talent in every child, like it is said in the bible that each and every one is made special by our Father in Heaven in His own unique way! It is a matter of when and where we are placed and the situation and environment which will then allow us to showcase the gift and talents which we have! Hence no one is too small or too weak to change and impact someone's live in a postive way and also to contribute in BIG or small ways, as long as you are willing!
