The one about updating on the status ...
"Great job and good accountability guys !!
Please remember to post a blog about your events and a team reflection of your learning journey.
1. What did you do ?
2. Where would you consider you've been innovative in the mounting of this event ?
3. What were some major learning points ? Major take-aways ?
4. How would you have done this differently if you were to do it again ?"
So!! Come on, come on start blogging !!!
Event update
Our team helped run an event for Bethel Student Care on the 21 of dec, monday. Xiantian and Yilin started first with ice-breakers and games to help us get to know the kids better.
Following that, I told the story of "A Christmas Carol". The aim was to let the children know that one should not be selfish and be more caring towards others. I later introduced the organisation "Club Rainbow" to the kids and the main purpose of that day's event.
Lifen took over with the making of the cards for the children at Club Rainbow. After that, we had a photo taking with the kids and the cards to remember the fun time we all had that day. And also being in the Christmas spirit of sharing, we gave out little gifts to the children as a way to thank them for their actively and enthusiastic participation.
The next day, our group headed down to Club Rainbow to hand over the cards made by the children at the Student Care.
Me, Yilin, Xintian and Lifen
Although it was hard work, Christmas this year for me sure is a meaningful one.

We have communicated with The Oasis and Zenxin,our sponsor for our event.We met with some difficulties but it has been solved and now we have to ensure our event goes smoothly on that very day!There will be lots of logistics to do before the event too.
Our event will be at The Oasis which is located inside Clementi Primary school.Our objective is to promote a healthy lifestyle to the kids and introduce more vegetables and fruits to their diets.
We will be having ILOVEVEG@The Oasis and we will teach them how to make a bento consisting a vegetable salad and some fruits.
So hopefully,after the event,they will soon become like popeye
haha just kidding.
Good luck to everyone on their upcoming common test and event!

Contingency
I would say that our project is not carried out smoothly because many things happened unexpectedly. For instance, we had decided to change the motive of our event at the very last minute. However, on a happier note, we think that our event is more meaningful than the previous one. So, we had decided to get the children at Bethel Student Care to make Christmas, not for themselves or their families, but for children who are even less fortunate than them. To do so, we have to start finding local charity organisations or hospitals which are willing to accept our cards for their children. However, no organisations and hospitals are willing to accept because they think that this isn't a feasible idea as we would not be interacting with the children there. We proposed solution like spending a day doing voluntary work at the charity organisation. At the end of the day, the handmade cards will be passed over to the less fortunate children as reminiscence. One of the charity organisations, Club Rainbow, is keen in our event. However, their children would not be around at the centre during the dates of our event. Once again, our solution failed. To overcome this, we revised our proposal to Club Rainbow. We mentioned that we are willing to continue supporting them despite the issue of the children not available for our event. We proposed a new idea of sending the photos of our event together with the cards. The advantage of this is the childen at Club Rainbow will be aware that we are doing this for them at this special season although we cannot be there physically. And, Club Rainbow accepted our proposal! :D
K.L.X.Y. Project Progress
After all the calls and emails to more than 8-10 organizations and hospitals, our group has finally gotten an approval from Club Rainbow to accept the Christmas cards from the Bethel children. =)
Club Rainbow is established in 1992 to help children suffering from a range of chronic and life-threatening illness. This charity is currently helping more than 470 children and families.
For now, we have proceeded to sponsorship from Singapore Children Society to fund us for this meaningful event. Hope we will receive a good news from them as well!

SuperFantastic: Meeting the Principal of the Kindergarden
We have changed our plan by bringing the kindergarten kids to Yakult factory! Why we changed our plan? Because due to the H1N1 flu, Vitagen have stop all visiting to their factory. (:
On Monday, we made an appointment with the principal of the kindergarten at 11am. When we reached, we were told by their staff that the principal was out for a meeting. We called the principal and she told us she forgotten about the appointment with us and is having a meeting outside and said she will be back in 30mins time. While waiting for her to arrive, we were listening to music and watching movie.
After one hour passed, the principal is still not here yet, the laptop battery went flat, we started to play BINGO and Hangman using a piece of paper. We had lot of fun playing while waiting.
Two hours has passed and the principal is still not here yet. All of us are tired and hungry so we decided to give the principal a call again. She told us the meeting has not end and suggest that we meet her the next day.
Thus on Tuesday, we went back again and discuss our proposal to her and she agreed that she will help us! Our confirmed date of event would be on 25 January 2010! Yea~ (:

From creators!

HOWEVER, when we were about to start plan for doing this record, we heard a bad news from the SBR. They said we cannot do this record setting, because they have the policy that cannot break records which latest record setting is within 6 months! Since this record only be set around 2 month before, we cannot do this for our I&E =(
We got this news this thursday. On that meeting, we felt the difficulty and felt a little worry. But we soon decided to do another record breaking! Now we have come up with a new idea that we will make a biggest logo made by thumbprints. The topic we would like to choose is YOS. Here i post the email from SBR.
Hi Cynthia
Sure We welcome you to break this record:
Largest Poster Made Of Thumbprints. Students from Nanyang Technological University Hall of Residence 4 displayed the largest poster made of thumbprints, measuring 1.782m by 0.84m at Jurong Point Shopping Centre on 17 Aug 2008.
Of course the poster you want to do can feature the YOG logo. The thumprints will have to follow the logo's proportion and colours closely. Because of the intricacies of the wordings, you may have to do your record much bigger than the last one. We have no restrictions to the no of thumprints made by each person. After your poster is completed we will send our officials down to measure and verify the record. We will also make a certificate presentation to you for breaking the record. Our charges for this record will be $400 for a 2-hr attendance.
You may like to know that for YOG-related activities, funding is avavilable. To apply check out http://www.whyohgee.sg/whyohgee/can/singapore2010ycm

So now we will set up to do this event =)
wish your all the best for your events!

SuperFantastic: Just the other day…
Last Friday, we went to help the Kindergarten for the second time.
It was the Kindergarten’s Actual Year End Concert.
All of them look really good, especially all the K2s that are graduating!
Anyhow, I randomly asked one of the kids whether he remembers me and he say he does! (happy happy!)
The whole event last about 4 hours and we were all so tired after the event.
Being a helper is not as simple as it is, especially when you got to handle kids!
They will run about like crazy and you need to chase after them.
Anyhow, tomorrow we’ll be meeting up with the Kindergarten’s Principal.
Hope everything will go well!
Once again, enjoy the pictures!

Our project discussion
Initially, our event is to have a Christmas celebration with the Bethel kids (low income family, single-parent family, etc). However, we came out with an idea of having the Bethel kids to create their own Christmas card and send their wishes to the less fortunate kids.
The purpose of this is to allow the children to care for and help the less fortunate children around them. For now, we are still waiting for the reply of the organization which will like to receive the cards.
Hope that we will get a reply soon so that we can progress further to sponsorship!

Hello!
About myself, I'm an Accountancy student, and I hope to pursue my studies in Singapore University after I graduate from Ngee Ann Poly. BUT I may not continue to study Accountancy because it's really BORING!
Hmm.. Perhaps I will update this blog again for my project.
Greetings from SuperFantastic
This week, my group did not meet up for discussion AT ALL.
In fact, we make a trip down to the Kindergarten and got to interact with the kids there!
Anyhow, the Kindergarten name is Creative Thinkers Kindergarten.
We want to take this opportunity to thanks Liubing as she was the one that introduce this Kindergarten to us. :)
Anyway, we went down to help them out for the rehearsal for their yearend concert.
I believe it was a great experience for us as we hardly interact with kids before!
It was quite tiring due to us sleeping so late the night before. :x
It was also our first time seeing how teachers actually get together and organized the yearend concert.
We are honored to be able to lend a helping hand to them!
The kids were really adorable but it gets tough when they are playful!
I shall stop typing words!
Enjoy the pictures! (:

Singapore Books of Records's reply (CREATORS)
Previously we have mentioned in class about our event of breaking record using "can drinks" by forming logo/picture. GOOD NEWS! We've got the reply from Singapore Books of Records!!! Below are some information provided by them. We hope you guys will give us opinion on which of the 4 choice is more feasible. Moreover, we need 50 plus MANPOWER for this event. Please help us by participating in this event if this event is approved. THKS in advance!
We welcome you to set a record for your school.However the current records relating to drink cans are as follows:
1. Longest Can LineHome Nursing Foundation collected and formed the world’s longest lineof drink cans on 10 Feb 2007. 90,769 cans were lined up by over ahundred volunteers from ITE College West at Singapore Expo to form apattern with the words ‘We Can’. The line measured 6,009m. Theproject was sponsored by ComfortDelGro.
2. Largest Can MosaicThe Yew Tee Community Club YEC collected 101,616 used drink cans andlaid them out on the hard court outside the CC to form the map ofSingapore. They took several months to collect the drink cans and twoweekends to arrange them before the final cans were placed on 14 Dec2008.
3.Largest Sculpture Made Of Drink CansBAIK Singapore and *SCAPE built the largest sculpture using 7,083drink cans. The sculpture was displayed at the National Youth Centreon 3 Oct 2009.
4.Largest National Flag Made Of Drink CansStudents of Townsville Primary School and Fuhua Secondary Schoolformed the largest national flag using 8,500 cans on 12 Jul 2008 atthe hall of the former. They did it as part of MediaCorp’s televisionprogramme called The Records Challenge.
The first 2 records incorporate grahics and logos so we cannot start anew record calling it 'Largest Logo Made of Drink Cans' You arewelcome to break any of the 4 above mentioned records. However you mayalso like to note that for each of them, more than 50 people wereinvolved. It would be very challenging if there are only the 4 of youdoing it. Perhaps instead of drink cans you would like to considersomething else?
SuperFantastic's event
It’s Amanda here and I’m here to share our group event with you.
If everything goes as plan, our event will be bringing a group of childcare children to Vitagen Factory Tour.
I believe everyone drank Vitagen before right?
Vitagen is specially formulated for consumers who are health conscious and are concerned about their sugar intake.
Anyhow, we’re currently still thinking more ideas to be special and different from others.
So if any of you got any suggestions, do share it with us.
With loves,
Amanda

FROM CREATORS - SOME POINTS TO NOTE!
Sorry that the points in the proposal for 'Run-for-Charity" event is not very clear. Oops! We would like to emphasize that the Run event will be held around the school premises. (around school car park)
We will also raise fund by the collection of registration fees of approximately $5 per dollar from participants and each of them will bring home with goodies bag from sponsorship partner. (if we can secure one)
Yay, that's about our current plan. Feel free to comment peeps!
Cheers :)
Wednesday, November 4, 2009
Hi we are from group 1. Creators!
We are group 1 "Creators". We have started our meetings and have generated a lot of ideas. Since we really want to organize an amazing event, we need your help to comment and give suggestions on our accepted ideas. Now we have three detailed ideas to choose from, so your view will be value for us to do the final decision =) Here we presented the detailed proposal of these three ideas.
The first idea is "RUN-FOR-CHARITY EVENT "
The second one is "Noah’s Ark Cares Tour"
The third one is "Sudoku competition"
Objectives
1. Firstly, we feel that as a student of Ngee Ann Polytechnic, we must play a part and contribute to the society. We would like to inculcate all our peers the importance of helping & reaching out to help the needy. We aim to help the less fortunate like the Disables People’s Association, Children Aid Society or even charitable institution, Community Chest (most preferred institution). Other than verbal concerns to the societies, we would like the students & lecturers of Ngee Ann Poly to participate in the Run-for-Charity event to help raise funds for this homes/institution.
2. Secondly, we must also emphasize that another objective of this run is to promote healthy lifestyle to NP’s staff and students. As a student ourselves, we hardly had time for exercise which lead us to an unhealthy mind and body. Therefore, we hope that with this event, the students/lecturers can understand the importance of exercising and have a habit of it.
Audience
Our targeted audience would be Ngee Ann’s students, as well as the staff/lecturers. We also welcome friends and family of staff to participate in this run.
Event Procedures
We would mount this Run-for-Charity Event between one of the day in week 11-13 (not confirm). Before the actual commence of this event, we will contact a few potential sponsorship (which we have yet contact them) regarding our plan & proposal. If sponsorship is approved from any organisation, we will proceed to Ngee Ann’s admin department to permit for the school premises as the run location. Furthermore, we will start making banners, leaflets and sending out mass emails to the staff and students of NP. Our team will then open a registration counter for those who are keen to participate in this run to join. Although there will be no winner for this event, our motive is to help out the needy. Hence, if we are able to secure any sponsorship, the participants will be given free goodies bag/gift. Besides that, once participants finish the targeted racing distance, our sponsorship will donate a certain amount of $$. This will also encourage all the participants.
Sponsorship Partners
Although we have yet secured sponsorship with any organisation, there are some organisations which we are keen to collaborate with. (100 PULS, NESTLE, FIREPRICE) (If this event is approved, we will start contacting the organisation)
Dear Max, our group has the contact & email address of charitable institution like Community Chest. If this is approved, we will proceed immediately. Thanks!
Noah’s Ark Cares Tour
Objectives
1. Fund-raise: provide opportunities for NP students help animals in Noah’s Ark Care center.
2. To raise awareness in participants regarding animal cruelty.
3. To educate people of the responsibility of keeping an animal before deciding whether they should purchase/adopt one. And give more information about the breeds, characteristics and behaviors of dogs.
4. Creates a chance for participants to know whether are they suitable to raise an animal and whether their home are a good living conditions for the animals. Information given will be helpful to interested animal lovers to understand more about dogs/cats.
Sudoku competition (cooperate with university)
Objective
1. Organize a fun competition for students. Participants will be participating in forms of group and they will experience teamwork.
2. Give NP students a chance to gain more insight about one of the universities (NTU, NUS or SMU) in Singapore.
Audience
NP Students
Event
In this event, we would like to collaborate with one of the three universities (NTU, NUS or SMU) to provide us with the venue to hold the competition.
Participants are to form a term of 3 people. They will race against time to see how many Sudoku they can finish within 1 hour time limit.
All the participants will be break into 2 groups. Once all the participants have arrive at the university, they will be break into Group A and Group B.
Group A will proceed to the venue to take their Sudoku Challenge. In the meantime, we will invite a campus facilitator to bring Group B for a tour around the campus for 40 minutes, introducing the facilities of the campus. After that, they will have a break to get ready for their challenge.
After 1 hour, Group A would have finished their challenge. They will then proceed for the tour s for 40 minutes as well, and Group B will take their challenge. In the meantime, some of us will need to start marking the answers for Group A.
After an hour, Group B would have finished their challenge. All the participants will then gather to have refreshment. In the background, we will need to start marking the rest of the answers and tabulate the results. The best 3 terms the best individual scorer will win the prizes.
After that, there will be a speech given by the campus facilitator (if possible), followed by prize presentation. Everyone will be dismiss from there.
Hello! :D
I'm from Accountancy and I disagree with Kendrick that numbers are horrid.
I love numbers and that's the reason why I took Accountancy :) BUT! I have lost interest in Accounts already cause the course is hell boring =X
I have no idea what else to write here :/
Anyway, I have NO interest in Events Management but I'll hope to have at the end of this module. Our group has come up with a very meaningful idea for this project and we hope it'll be a successful one! :D
The one about the MOE visitors ...
See you guys (and gals) ... have a swell weekend ...

Hello everyone!
Well, for yesterday’s event, there were a total of 10 people who were late or didn’t come.
Hence, we got a sum of $50.
I had given $8 to Max for the expenses of our activities at WCP.
Another $10 was given to Team 1 as they were the winning team.
Thus, there’s a balance of $32 and it will be refunded back to all the 10 people.
So get your $3.20 from me on Monday.
See you!
Cheers,
Amanda :)
