Latest Updates on Trash to Gold

Hi all. This is a concise update to let the rest of you all know the progress of Trash to Gold. Basically the proposal is being approved by Mrs Ang already. We are doing the Filming of the video advertisement on 12th March, the wednesday of the March Holidays, so please come and help us out if you are free!!! We are thinking of designing posters to paste around the school as well. Anyway. the short video advertisement is about a guy/girl or a group of people who are short-sighted but cannot afford specs for some reason, how they spend their day and some funny things or embarrassing things theat they experience because of their poor eyesight. So please help us brainstorm if u all have any interesting and innovative ideas. Also, the screening of the video is tentatively scheduled on the 17th March. Eddie from Mercy Relief is coming down on the 28th March to speak to the school. Lastly, the emphasis of the project is not about collecting and ask people to donate, is more about conveying the message and letting people know why they should donate and they should only donate after understanding the noble cause of this whole project. :D good luck and jia you for CTs.. stay happy

update!

hello ok this is just an update of unr.
i talked to hwee kiang, and she wants the pre event sales on the 22nd of march to be from 11AM TO 7PM. the students wld have to come earlier for registration, but the event itself is frm 11AM TO 7PM.
take note.

and ive alr sent the letters to the JCs. and i did the name list for them too. so basically we just have to wait for their reply by the 29th, where we will tell them of the reporting time and tell them the places they wld go to.

this tuesday's meeting wld be abt refining the programme, since we have some time problems in the prog. maybe cutting down some stuff wld be plausible, as we have said. and also somemore things like the publicity that we're going to do in VJ for this event. and the design. anil, where's the design??

BTW, the confirmed theme is " UNDER NO ROOF 2008: Where hope begins"

update for UNR

Hello ppl, this goes out ESPECIALLY TO THOSE IN UNR.
PLEASE READ!!! :))

more immediate stuff:

• Draft of letters to the JCs

ok, so i have a draft of the letter alr. i kinda edited it slightly, based on what they gave us. HFH wants to send the letter out to the schs by this coming wk, ie. by 15th feb. so i'll send my draft by tdy or tmr. my guess is that they'll send it back for more editing.

• Theme

they want a more nicer, impactful theme. our theme of 'HOPE DESPITE DESPAIR' is abit ... weak? so they want something more powerful like the previous years, like 'UNDER NO ROOF: WHERE WILL YOU SLEEP TONIGHT?' we've got to settle the theme by this tues, but it'll still revolve around hope, so that won't hinder our planning la.

• Brainstorm games/activities during event

this will be the main topic for tuesday's meeting. the activities etc, incl the rationing, the 'disturbance' in the night, the video scenario thing that's gonna be played. other things to take note of :

-space constraint at the open area

-wash up : where / how are they gonna wash up? chinhao said sth like the vivo ppl wont like the participants to was up in the toilets cos its bound to be very very dirty etc

-safety / security : bring in first aid and those on duty to take care of belongings, how to collect and make sure participants' belongings dont get lost. since we're gonna strip them of everything. (heh.)

and more.

• T-shirt design

we have to come up with a design, and i heard that anil is coming up with one? anw, if there is ANYONE, ANYONE AT ALL IN CIC WHO CAN COME UP WITH ANY DESIGN TOO, pls do so thank you very much :)

we'll narrow the choices too, so it's best if we had a wide pool of designs to choose from in the first place. and this will come down to settling the theme first, so this coming tuesday's meeting is super impt.

other stuff to take note:

*abt half an hr educational session

*debrief session

*opening/closing ceremony

*REGISTRATION

so guys, make sure you're there on tues ok? we really really need to get things done, esp the pre event and the event itself.

THANKS!
