~Graduate BBQ~

SEG Graduates BBQ was held at Aloha Loyang in March 2011. This event was specially organised for the graduates to get together and spend quality time with each other. Furthermore, they have the chance to mingle around with one another from a mixture of courses in engineering and at the same time, allow the graduates to catch up with one another before they part ways into their next phase of life.

The event started off when Cyriva Club members started to place the food on the grill. Some of the graduates helped to start the fire. They were helpful and patient to start up the fire.

As the graduates started consuming the barbecued food which was being served to them, some of the Cyriva Club members went to chit chat with them and made the graduates feel welcomed. Some were playing party games while some were even telling jokes. Everyone was enthusiastic and participative during the game sessions which have been prepared specially for the graduates by Cyriva Club.

Some of the graduates who attended the event shared their life experience in Republic Polytechnic and how they managed to juggle their studies. They gave us a glimpse of how the three years in Republic Polytechnic had been for them and some shared about their courses.  While some have already started working, the rest of the graduates shared with one another what they were going to work as in future.

The graduates were friendly and easy going. They even barbecued the food with us. At the end of the event, everyone enjoyed the night and we exchanged contacts with each other to keep in touch. 

We hope this Graduates BBQ would be a memorable event to those who have attended and Graduates of SEG, do keep in touch with us! Cheers J
