6. 4. Activity Details
Team-Bonding Games
Time: 0930-1100
Location: Atrium
Instructions to Facilitators
Facilitators are to facilitate the following activities in their groups. Follow the recommended time for
each activity roughly and at the same time follow the pace of the group in deciding the duration for
each game, unless there is popular demand to play a game longer/shorter.
Activity 1: Double Whacko! (45 min)
First of all, everyone is to introduce themselves.
Then, the facilitator is to pair up the group randomly. The pair is to decide among themselves for who
to be the one sitting down and who to be the one standing up. The person sitting down will be the
targets for ‘whacking’, while the person standing up will have to shout the name of a person sitting
down (which is not his partner).
The game is to start with a name (that of a person sitting down) shouted out, then proceed like a
normal Whacko! Game, except that only the person standing up can call another name for his partner.
When the ‘whacker’ does manage to hit a person sitting down, he swaps his position with the person
sitting down, and then the person who was standing up would sit down while the previous ‘whacker’
will be the person standing up in his pair.
Facilitators are to join in the game if only there are an odd number of members in the group. Their
primary role in this game is to facilitate the playing of the game. There are a few rules that facilitators
can set after a while, such as not repeating a name consecutively or no ‘revenge callings’ with which
the game can result in a deadlock. Groups are also encouraged to play the game with other groups.
Objectives:
• To get acquainted with one another.
Activity 2: Knotty Hands (30 min)
The group is to stand in a circle and attach both hands to hands of different people (that means both
hands cannot be holding both hands of another member). Then, they will proceed to untie the knots
on their hands until they form a big circle without releasing their hands.
Facilitators are to join in the game as well, but should refrain from giving instructions to members
and instead allow members to take up the initiative of giving directions to each other. Once groups
have completed the activity, and if they completed it quickly, facilitators may wish to
Objectives:
• To work together as a team to solve a common problem.

7. Activity 3: Silent Communication (15 min)
Groups are to be paired up in this activity.
Facilitators will request the group to line up in a line according to a certain rule, but the catch here is
that no verbal communication is allowed in this activity. After the group has lined up, the facilitators
will be checking for the degree of accuracy of the lining up and come up with a suitable amount of
light forfeits.
Facilitators will be provided a list of contacts to facilitate in the checking of results.
Rules which can be used are:
• Height
• Age (then by birthday)
• Class (then register numbers)
• Name (according to alphabetical order)
• Handphone number (those without will have to line up according to house number).
• Birthday (then age)
• Length of handspans
Objectives:
• To work together as a team to solve a common problem.

8. Oral Quiz
Time: 1100-1200
Location: Auditorium
Instruction to Facilitators
Make sure members are assembled at the auditorium by 1230 (early arrival is preferred). During the
game, facilitators are to facilitate the Camp I/Cs in carrying out the activity.
Game Details
Each group will sit according to their groups at the front of the auditorium.
Every group will have a scoreboard looking like this:
___
___ X ___
___ X ___ X ___
___ X ___ X ___ X ___
___ X ___ X ___ X ___ X ___
Group I will start the game.
A group, during their turn, will select a question and answer accordingly. If they fail to answer
correctly, the question will be opened to the floor. If the question is not correctly answered one more
time, the question will be counted void. Answered questions cannot be picked again.
If a group gets a certain score from a question, they are allowed to fill it in any empty box (even their
opponent’s). If all the boxes of the group’s scoreboard are filled, they are allowed to replace an older
number in their scoreboard with a newer one.
Altogether, there are 50 questions. Q41-50 will only be open when at least eight questions have been
answered.
There are certain questions which requests for every group to answer in their foolscap pad. Any group
will answers them correctly will get the points, however, the group which picked the question will
have authority to put them in any box of the scoreboard (one set of points to each group which
answered correctly).
At the end of the game, empty boxes will be filled with a ‘0’. All the products of each group’s
scoreboards will be added up. The group with the most points wins.
Scores will be allocated as such:
1st, 1000 points; 2nd, 750 points; 3rd, 500 points; 4th, 400 points; 5th, 300 points; 6th, 250 points; 7th, 200
points; 8th, 150 points.
In the event that a tie occurs, the amount of points allocated for that position + corresponding points
allocated to subsequent positions will be divided by the number of groups tied and the groups will be
allocated that total mark.
Objectives:
• Allows members to know more about the RICO EXCO, RICO, Chinese Orchestra general
information and Chinese Orchestra in Singapore in general.

9. Amazing Race
Time: 1300-1500
Starting Location: Atrium
Ending Location: Atrium
All groups will start off with a clue to the first stop. The objective of the game is to be the first team
to reach the Pitstop, the location of which will be hinted in the envelope received upon arrival of the
eighth stop.
There are altogether 8 stops, 2 detours and 1 roadblock in the game. Stops are locations in which the
team needs to go and a clue of the next location will be given upon arrival by either the facilitator
following the group or the facilitator in charge of the stop. A clue to a detour will contain two clues;
each clue hinting at different compromises of the mixture of ability at a different location. The
difficulty of a task in a detour is usually offset by the distance of detour station from the stop. The
clue to the roadblock will have a warning, but must be completed in order to reach the Pitstop. Before
the instructions of the roadblock are given out, a clue will be given to the group and the group must
pick the best team members to cope with whatever they think the task would be.
The point system will be as such:
Ability to complete entire race (reaching Pitstop): 300 points
Ability to answer Murder Puzzle correctly: 100 points
Ability to answer Murder Puzzle with logical explanation: 100 points
Completing the race in under 1½ hours: 300 points
Position counting: 1000 points for 1st, 700 points for 2nd, 500 points for 3rd, 350 for 4th, 200 for
remaining four positions. In the event that a tie occurs for any of the first four positions (to be counted
by time of arrival at last station in case they do not arrive at pitstop), the positions’ (adding the lower
positions not taken) scores will be added up and divided by the number of teams sharing the
positions.
Instruction to Facilitators
Sng Zheng will be in charge of coordinating the activity. Facilitators will be going around the school
with their groups and will carry the groups’ share of envelopes and puzzles WITH THEM (except for
clues given at stations with Facilitators stationed there).
In case of early ending of activity, Prize Auction is to be done earlier than scheduled.
Objectives
• For the team to make coordinated decisions under the guidance of the group leader
• For the members to feel that they are part of a team
9|Page
10. Prize Auction
Time: 1500-1515
Location: Atrium
Groups will be told their tallied sum of points they have accumulated over the 2 days of camp through
all the competitive activities.
Items will be brought out to the centre of the atrium one by one for the groups to vie for. The entire
thing will work in an auction format, with the groups using their accumulated points to bid for the
item. Some of the items may be covered, and groups will then be left to decide whether or not to vie
for them up to their own discretion.
