Absentee from training

Hello all,

This is Mr Lim here, speaking on behalf of all the Basketball Teachers.

Thanks to Timothy for giving the Letter for absence from training.

The teachers are still waiting for some of you who were absent from training in the last 2 weeks to step forward and to provide us with your MC/Parents' Letter.

Failing to provide these will result in dishing out of punishment to these members.

What's coming up in 2009...

Hi all,

The following is an overview of what to expect in Basketball CCA (besides normal training):

Sec 1 CCA Orientation (Jan 09) - This is to introduce all CCAs to the Sec 1s joining the school in 2009. All members are expected to help out in one way or another in the Basketball CCA booth. You will be given CIP hours as well.

Enrichment Programme (throughout the year) - This enrichment programme allows you to learn new skills or take part in activities that are not basketball-related. For example: Kayaking, Dragonboating, Sport-climbing, Hip-hop dancing, Web Publishing, etc etc.

CIP (throughout the year) - CIP is compulsory for all secondary school students and therefore we will incorporate CIP acitivites into our CCA schedule. CIP hours will be given as well. CIP activities can be internal or external activities, eg improvement of school environment, visit to orphanages, conducting of basketball clinics for primary school students, etc.

Overseas outreach (mid-year and year-end) - This is an extension of CIP to overseas locations. We may go to countries like Vietnam, Thailand or Laos to do outreach activities that will help improve the livelihood of the citizens of those countries.
