Orientation Programme Day 3 - Tug-of-War/SEG Performance

It's Day 3 of Freshman Orientation, the freshmen gathered at Agora hall 2, our home base waiting to be move out to the Astroturf and witness the tug of war competition between schools and centre.



We cheered out loud for our SEG Student and Staff team when they were on the battle field. SEG Student and Staff teams managed to knock out their competitors from different schools and centres, and made all the way to finals, and all of us hoping we could win and conquer the war.


It was the finals fight between SEG Staff versus SIT Staff. The fight begins, everyone cheered out loud for our SEG staffs. Screaming out..!! “Pull..!! Pull..!!” SEG Staff wins..!! Everyone jumped up high and screamed happily.

The Champions..
SEG Student and Staff Tug-of-War Warriors..!!


“We Conquered the War!” “SEG.. Sah..!!”
Tug-of-War competition ended, everyone were tired and exhausted cheering for our tug-of-war teams. We headed back to our home bases, walking like champions and raising our flags up high. We had mini celebration in our home base congratulate the SEG Student and Staff team. Everyone was hungry, and lunch was served.
Everyone was delighted about the lunch as it was filling and nice. Next activity is our own time practicing our war cry and the performance. Good to see everyone is participative and have lots of progress.
After practicing it’s time for us to have a rest. We had a sharing session by one of our graduates. He shared his three years life journey in Republic Polytechnic and shared some tips and skills on how he breezed through and ways of exceling in studies. Hope the story he delivered could inspire every one of us.

After dinner, it was raining heavily outside, everyone was disappointed to hear the news and hoping the rain would stop and have jam and hop session. The dynamic duos (emcee) never fail to entertain and keep them motivated; we practice our war cry once again before school presentation performance begins. Everyone energy level was high and here come our judges.

Freshmen were screaming out loud welcoming the judges to our home base. We start off with the performance and it was a blast. During the performance we all war-cried together, and it was perfectly done. Judges were impressed and there were smiles on their faces.

After the judges have left our home base, we all cheered and did one last time Republic War Cry, everyone do it together as One RP.

Soon we received notification that the weather was clear and ready to move up to lawn for jam and hop session. Freshmen were excited to hear the good news and hoping that we could win the Principal’s Cup this year. Once we have moved and gathered at lawn, everyone waited patiently for the results.
All of us were eager to know the results, and now the time has come. Emcee announce the 2nd and 1st runner up winners and as the rest of us our heartbeats pounded like a drum hoping SEG could be the champions this year.
Next the emcee announces the champion for year 2011; The Champion is, School of… Engineering! Everyone screamed out loud, jumping around happily and broke into tears. All the hard work we have contributed and participate was worth it.

After jam and hop session, everyone smile happily walking back to our home base. We had photo shoot session for all SEG students, and everyone was given the opportunity to hold and have their own pose taking pictures with the Principal’s Cup. That’s the end our Freshmen Orientation Journey. Thank you SEG Freshmen!
