Marching time

23rd February is coming again. Most schools, private sectors, government departments and many other departments will have representatives who are going to do marching for the N-day for Negara Brunei Darussalam! ^^

Event: Taman Sir Omar Ali Saifuddien (if im not wrong)
Date: 23rd February 2010

I saw many of the St.MArgaret's students are now so D.A.R.K...i mean their skin. WOWWW!!
I was stunted when i saw some students who are actually having dark skin and eventually reflects the sunlight---(shinny dark skin) :s
Not laughing at them but scary..see how scary is the sun. It will take a long time for the skin to return to its original colour. "Syabas" to the students. Even the teachers cant stand the heat under the sun. Including me. :P I don't want to be dark! :D

Well, thats the result of rehearsing for the marching. But its all worthy. Its a life time experience for everyone especially for the students. :)

Finally.....Good luck and hopefully the marching rehearsals will go on smoothly and the sun won't be hot everyday.

Cambridge IGCSE Physical Education

A course on Cambridge IGCSE Physical Education was being conducted by the University of Cambridge International Examinations in Brunei, at the Gymnasium of Maktab Sains. And i attended it.

Talking about Maktab Sains, the facilities there amazed me. Although its not that PERFECT..But it is way better than some school. However, no comparison should be made. They have the budget and all..

Back to the course which i have attended.......this course was talking about having P.E (Physical Education) in form 4 and 5. Imagine...P.E was not even a subject before..and now...P.E is going to have theory test and even practical test. Can students take it??

Well, I think its a VERY good thing actually. Because it could help to improve the standard of living and health of Students/ people in Brunei. There are a lot to be done to have P.E being brought into form 4 and 5 as a subject which is as important as other subjects. Few school in Brunei, in Bandar Seri Begawan is going to work on the scheme next year. Wish them luck!!

Throughout the two days, during the course..teachers were actually being briefed on how and what to teach from the syllabus as well as how to assess and mark the students. Students are actually being filmed when they do their practicals. That is a must...as an evidence and the films are to be sent to Cambridge.

On 18th Nov. 2009....teachers are to assess and put the students according to their rank, level and marks. This is where teachers are to be very very very observative....

Eric, the lecturer...was telling the students what to do....

There were exchange of gifts after the meal. Funny thing is there was someone who gave CD movie as a gift..and Cikgu Syawal unluckily chosen that gift. But then all the gifts are worth B$10. :) Everyone enjoyed themselves.... ^^

once again...........

The Brunei Basketball Association will be organizing the Basketball Youth Cup starting 21st November 2009.

There are going to be two categories: U-18 and 18-23. One important thing is that players should have a valid Brunei issued identity card. The entry fee is $200 per team.

Well, once again and most probably, most of the gold united players or MJ players are joining for the tournament (under 23). Gold united basketball team which was led by JOTUN MING..and MJ who was led by Lee Hung Yi..will be joining "forces" again to play some games. :D
