Confirmation Letter

Dear Parents of Sec 1s,

i suppose your son/ward have already passed you the confirmation letters. I had initially passed them a copy each at the start of the year but a number of them told me that they have misplaced it. As such, i have reprinted them again and passed to them last Friday.

Will need you to take some time off to read through it, sign, detach the 2nd piece (The first piece is to be kept for your reference) and kindly have your son/ward to return the 2nd piece to the Scout teachers asap.

Do feel free to email any of the Scout teachers for any clarifications. Thank you so much.


Warm regards,
Mr. Lincoln Chan

Job Week 2012

Dear Scouts and Parents,

Would like to share with you the rationale and meaning of Job Week.

The main purpose of the Job Week is to inculcate in Scouts the dignity of labour and the value of honest work. Scouting provides fundamental and foundational training in the inculcating of these intangibles. The values, no doubt will enable the Scouts to be better leaders and citizens of tomorrow in our affluent society.

It helps Scouts to understand the need to render service before they go out to earn money for their Units and for the Association. The concept of service before self; service to the community and the nation is an important aspect and an integral part of the Scout Training. It emphasizes that Scouts must perform a job in order to earn the funds and not to beg for donation.

The funds raised will be used to finance training and programme activities for our Scouts to prepare them for a purposeful and responsible adulthood, always ready to serve God, Country and Humanity.


Job Week Briefing for Scouts conducted by Unit Leaders

The Scout must
* maintain a positive Scouting image and uphold the good name of the Scout Movement.
* perform jobs only within the stipulated period, i.e.
0900h to 1900h daily
from 10 Mar to 16 Mar 2012
unless specially arranged by their Unit Leaders.
* observe the standing instructions printed on the Job Week card.
* wear the correct uniform in public and working attire when performing jobs. (Recruits should wear a Scout T-shirt and scarf)
* perform jobs in two or three, never alone.
* not to follow any stranger to anywhere, in any building or premises.
* carry what they need for the jobs in their bags or knapsacks, not in plastic or shopping bags.
* know when and how to decline a job that is too difficult to handle
* say “thank you”, issue the Thank You cards after performing the task and be courteous at all times.
