ERC MINI ORIENTATION
28 December 2011
This orientation was organized by our International department and Student Council for all new students who have intake in January from the various programs in ERCI. The objective of this orientation is to enable new students to get to know one another as well as familiarize themselves on some basic regulations in school.
The Student Councils were involved as Student Orientation Leaders and this made new students feel more at home. With the warm interaction from Student Councils, the new students did not feel they are strangers in Singapore at all.
This round, our Student Councils assumed more leadership roles. Besides being the Orientation Leaders, two Student Councils were also the emcees for the games segments. Our new students were divided into small groups according MRT stations in Singapore. The MRT stations were Orchard, Little India, Chinatown, Somerset, etc.
In summary, the students played both indoor – Transformers and Musical Chair, as well as outdoor games – Balloon Belly, Straw It and Cuppie Cups. So much fun and laughter was generated, most importantly this built the bridge between students along with their creativity and patience.
At the end, Orchard team was the winner for outdoor games since they had the fastest time to finish the outdoor games. All the students who attended this orientation not only enjoyed themselves but also gained the experience that they never had before. Most importantly, they took away the learning points of team work, creativity, and perseverance.
