1) Total 10 schools confirmed their attendance. We might have more if some decided to turn up w/o informing.
2) I decided that ONLY those performing on stage will wear 'COSTUME' during the performance. The rest will wear the no 1 or uniform to perform.
3) Band had promised to supply 10 sets of blazer on monday. Those w/o blazer/skirt/pants yet will receive on monday. However do try to get your own white pants and skirt just in case the band cannot fulfil their promise. I will bring my wife's shoes and white skirt just in case not enough. If after all this we still don't have enough, i apologise that those w/o the full set will follow the sec 2 to get your badge/tie pin. A thousand apologises.
4) I will be printing the programme sheet and excuse letter on monday morning. Excuse letter will pass to you in class cos i need Mr Chia to sign. During your recess, can i have some volunteer to help fold the programme sheet and to help insert the printout into the sovenier to our guest?
Please pass the message around. Thanks.
Wai
(May the force be with you)

Investiture
Dearest Leaders,
Thought i just drop a note as your investiture draws nearer and nearer. Leaders, especially the ICs kindly think through the W5H as you plan and organise the investiture or any other events.
Who
Who am i gonna get/alloacted to help me in my event?
Who is in charge of what?
Who is doing what?
Who is doing the monitoring?
What
What are the duties and responsibilities of each leaders?
What are the equipment require for the event?
What are the things that can possible go wrong?
What is missing, needed, necessary for the event to be a success?
When
When is the dateline i need to get the things ready?
When is the rehearsal?
When is the individual event gonna start and end?
Where
Where is the leaders' position during the performance/investiture?
Where do we place our equipment?
Why
Why are we doing all this?
Why is it important to stick to the dateline?
Why it happen or need to change?
How
How long is each event?
How to I get enough people to help?
How can I ensure my part of the job is completed?
How can i improve on my part of the job?
These are just SOME of the MANY questions that you should be thinking through when you organise anything. Do not wait till it's too late and "explain" why things are not done. Think and plan it through. ENLIST OTHERS TO HELP if you cannot cope.
Lastly i wishes all leaders a "fruitful" Ang Bao collecting Lunar New Year.

hi all, chosen1 here, sorry for the late post
HLC and Prefectorial Board post 1 – Investiture on the 25th Feb
Hi HLC members, this is the chosen 1. This is regarding our investiture performance that we would be doing at the end. Hopefully you guys know what to expect on that day. Mr Chia comes in and gives speech, badges would be presented, Danial would give his speech, the souvenirs would be given to the guests then the performance comes in. As some of you know, this time our investiture is going to be something big. First and foremost, just wanna go through the ICs on that day.
Overall IC – Shi Min
Invitation card IC – Yisin
Souvenir IC – Velda (Girl Guides do souvenir)
Program Sheet – Jermaine
Performance IC, Skit – Jodi
Mini performance IC
1. Band – Chun Fai, Xiao Li
2. Hairspray, You can’t stop the beat – Julia, Andrew
3. HSM, All for one (4:09) – Jodi, Kelly
Logistics – Fadly, Bryan
Just briefly go through the jobs of the ICs. Shi Min would be the overall IC and that means the decisions are made by her…not me. Yisin would be doing the invitation card which we would send to the other schools. Velda would be in charge of making a souvenir that we would present to our guests on that day. Jermaine would be in charge of the programme sheet, the little pamphlet that would be given to everyone on that day that has all our names in it. Jodi would be the overall in charge of the program. The people in the sub-performances would be Chun Fai, Xiao Li, Julia Tay, Andrew, Jodi and Kelly. Jodi would be briefing these people on what to do and what to achieve by a certain date. All these would be settled in the future posts. Finally, Fadly and myself would be running the logistics so that we see that the things that we need and get it.
The programme is up to us but the things before the programme like the presentation of badges and the entry of all HLC and prefects into the hall would more or less be decided by Mr Cheong or the exco or both. That is not the worry now. Right now, I will briefly go through the programme that would take place. We plan to start it around 145. This is the rough outline.
We’d like to invite the fellas from wadever school to come up and receive a souvenirs…blah blah blah…
1.45 – 1.46 à conversation between XH and YC
XH enters stage right and sits on a sofa (located stage left) and picks up a remote
YC comes from stage left and snatch the remote and fight over it
A button is accidentally pressed (Hairspray music starts playing)
1.46 – 1.52 à Hairspray
20 people form both sides of the stage would enter
singing and dancing (chorography by Vanessa Ng)
1.52 – 1.53 à curtain closes
XH and YC commentary and fighting again (band equipment must be brought out in this period)
1.53 – 1.56 à Band
Elijah, Uthara, Berry and Cheri will be playing their song
1.56 – 1.57 à XH and YC
(band equip shifts away)
curtain closes and XH and YC comments on band
XH and YC converse and says ALL FOR ONE
1.57 – 2.03 à finale
(dancers need to change to bright coloured clothes with a summer theme)
the song will be playing before people come in
people will run in from side of hall and the also down the middle
those who were in hairspray and band will come in after 3 minutes or so and join the finale on the floor
last verse: everyone shouts ALL FOR ONE WOOOOO
everyone would then run up the stage and the curtain closes
OK, that’s mainly about it. However, please do not think that the groups are confirmed. We shall be meeting again soon to discuss the lead singers and all. The following is the groupings.

Yes, only for HSM, we shall be wearing bright clothes, the others who are doing before will be wearing blazers or school uniform throughout. Remember, theme is summer. Please ar…remember, it is an American summer, not and Indian summer. I don’t wanna see any joker come out on that day half naked with a turban and an Indian sarong around his waist carrying a broom and shouting ALL FOR ONE. Oh no. Please be reminded about the rehearsal dates; 12, 14, 21, 22. Other than that, that should be about it.
Thanks, Chosen1.
