Air Specialist Course 2009 (Phase 1)

Okay, with this blog having been dead for such a long time, I am proud to revive it with very very exciting news!

In the Air Specialist Course 2009 (Phase 1), which 11 of our part Cs attended, 10 of them achieved the rank of 2nd SGT, which as SSG Celeste would put it, is 90.9%(3sf)!

On top of that, three of our Part Cs also obtained various awards, allowing us to have, as Debbie once put it, "OWNED the course" by being the school to have obtained the most number of awards. A very hearty congratulations to the following part Cs:

OVERALL COURSE BEST:
2SG Shen Yu Ting Tina

COMPANY BEST:
2SG Zhang Jingwen

GENERAL SPECIALISTS KNOWLEDGE BEST:
2SG Sam Ying Yi Sophia

We are all immensely proud of our second batch of RGSNCCAIR cadets!! You guys have shown a lot of standard at this specialist course, showing the rest of them what RGSNCCAIR is made of. Remember that we're all very very proud of you guys!

With love,
the part Ds

Training to be Soldiers cheer

Hi all

There's actually a 2nd verse to the Training To Be Soldiers cheer, so here's the cheer in its entirety:

Training to be soldiers
Fight for our land
Once in our lives
4 years of our time
Have you ever wondered
Why we must serve
Because we love our land
And we want it to be free to be free

Looking all around us
People everywhere
Children having fun
While we are carrying guns
Have you ever wondered
Why we must serve
Because we love our land
And we want it to be free to be free

~Celeste

CCAO

We just had our CCAO 2008, and there are some people that i would like to credit it's success to.

From Part Cs, Tiffany, who always supported, encouraged and gave great ideas, Celeste and Trina who went all out to the field for aeromodelling, Julie for coming up with the schedule for Part As, Celeste for Part Bs', Jaslyn, Eewen, Huiyi for being there to come up with fantastic designs and helping with marking all the rifles (and Julie for patiently touching everything up), Julie, Tiffany and Eewen for solidifying the brilliant design with Cheryl and Liyana, Chloe and Huichen for supporting every decision we make and dilligently working for the cca, Liyana for coming down every meeting to help, Miranda with her glib tongue to convince their parents that NCC Air is indeed the best, Becky for remembering everything we forgot, Muni for coming down for meeting last minute and supporting throughout, and Kathryn, Arasi and Cheryl for being with us morally and spiritually on CCAO day.

Last and certainly not the least, Part Bs for being great sport and wearing the facepaint and the blue berets with pride, and making a great effort to promote the cca, and Part As for patiently giving out stickers and flyers, teachers that gave permissions and whatever that happened a possibility.

Thanks for all the effort everyone!
