Getting Wet...

First some harmless waterbomb passing...


Look at Ben's sly face as he packs the waterbombs...


Supply preparing for the Sandwich Game


Being thrown at...

And stacking on top of one another



Gary leads the pack


A final stacking and Youyi pours a pail of water


The next batch of Sandwich makers...Demand


Look at how they run...


Derek is in pain...I wonder it has anything to do with Ben...


Derek is in pain and Ben gives the "How do you like it baby" look


A final group photo and it is never complete without Youyi and his pail

Thats all for today!

See you around... Especially for NEFMQ, Matric Fair, Welcome Tea and AGM!

First up we have the Wacky Pictures from Photohunt...

We have Gary's Group... consisting of Esther, Louisa and Jacqueline Tee!



Esther don't jump!!!


Louisa gives a talk


Jacqueline gives a kiss to Esther's beau while Louisa looks on.

Speeding in front the traffic police is a bad idea...

Peek a Boo!



Greetings from a HDB flat


Altered Reality



The future of our nation lies in the hands of the young

I'm pleased to report that the camp has successfully concluded.

In this time from 1st July 10am to 4th July 10am, bonds were made, tears were shed and long distances were walked. Not to mention prawns were shelled, marshmallows barbequed and chicken wings devoured... I thank all of you who have participated in the camp, seniors and juniors alike, who made this camp such a successful one. For without your undying enthusiasm, great spirit and everlasting energy (and sore feet), the camp would not been able to become such a fun camp.

I know everyone is eagerly anticipating the photos. Here, I would like everyone to send me the photos that they have. Eg. Melvyn, Po Ben, Stephanie, Magdalene. Send to yousendit.com then send to my email, yingtat@hotmail.com

I will try to get the photos out by the next outing that we have... Ah hah... which brings me to my next point. The Swenson outing! I propose that we organise a dinner outing on 16th July to Swensons! I will be sending an email out regarding the event but you can do an "advanced booking" and send me an email first! Once I have confirmed the number, I will do a booking. Most likely we will either have it at Orchard or at Holland Village.

Ok now let me put up a few group photos first to quench your thirst for photos for a while...

Before Leaving the Chalet

After Prize Presentation

The infamous "Biscuit" pose


The man who has it all, beautiful women and biscuits

Before leaving PGP


Thank you all so much!!! See you!!!!
