As what SL Nicholas Sir has said, all scouts to be at their best on this Friday. Due to the ceremony being held at the Primary School Parade Square, there will be many eyes watching us. Referring to some fiery questions asked by some scouts about the investiture, the camp is not canceled but its is postponed. We cannot have the camp this Friday as it is the last day of Chinese New Year, this it is a tradition to have a family reunion.

For the sec4s in charge of the building of flagpole, we will need all to eat a heavy recess and pack the food for lunch. Right after school, meet in den, no need to change yet, we will start to build.

Make sure the proper attire is worn and ensure that you pack before hand. Any scouts who fails to bring the correct attire will not be able to participate in the investiture. Any uniform mistakes such as badge dropping out of loose threads must be properly done up.
