For Part C cadets

Event: sell flags
Date: 30 August Saturday
Organisation: Lions Befrienders
Attire: To be confirmed
Choice: Optional (Only for Part C as stated in the email I received)

This is not a HQ NCC event.

Lions Befrienders sent an email to appeal NCC units for volunteers to sell flags. They are appealing for help to raise the $140,000 they need to fund their programmes for the elderly.

This activity will build your character.

This activity is part of our Initiative component and will also educate you guys on the need for compassion towards the elderly as we will all grow old.

Social interaction skills and confidence in speaking and interacting will also be enhanced.

Flag-selling will increase the confidence of each cadet and also place them in situations where they will learn resilence and tact. (Not everyone you approach will donate; do you give up? How should you be speaking when you need favours?)

Flag-selling will give you cip hours, but of course that should be the last reason you are signing up for.

To all Part C cadets,

Go spread the word.
This is purely optional. Don't feel obliged that you must sign up, or the teachers or our school will 'lose face'. Sign up because you think it's a worthy cause, which I can tell you now it is.
Anyone interested, please give me your names by
