Easter Camp 2008

Time to learn

We held our Easter Camp 20-21 March 2008 with a total of 35 girls. This was a good experience for the little ones as many were their first-night away from home ! On the morning of checking in and registration, many mums were wondering how their girls would do being the first time away from home! We fully understood their concern, we made it a bit of "Sleep-Over" experience with other girls.

We had a good time learning about the meaning of Good Friday and how we should celebrate Easter in a meaningful way. We had two sisters who came in to give Bible Study on Easter Messages, there were Sister Aisha and Sister Eleanor. Sister Aisha taught the Seniors and Pioneers while Sister Eleanor taught the Cadets and Juniors.

In this camp, the girls did a "Stained-glass-look" Cross. There were many beautiful artworks! We joined the chruch for the Good Friday Service and it was most challenging for the younger girls to stay concentrated. During the midnight before, they were all awoken up by the Seniors for a "Midnight Fire Drill", all woke up except two little ones who were unalarmed with all the shoutings and running ! Well, the Seniors made them wear jackets and did a midnight drill session with all of them! We could hear one cadet girl sobbing for her mum but she still continued the drill despite her tears ! It was quite an experience to do midnight drill because the leaders could see your mistakes but not your face !

All in all, the girls had a good time of learning and fellowshiping with one another.
