Supörté Organising Committee3112.Notes/ Reflection3213. Acknowledgement 33<br />Theme<br />568325196850The theme for this convention is ‘Supörté’. It means ‘support’ in Portuguese. Thus, the message that we are emphasising in this forum is that every one of us should support each of our peers in difficult situations. Not only that, we hope that we can develop our leadership, as it is essential in this era, where a lot of the students face a lot of challenges in lives, even at such a young age. They need somebody to support them emotionally and hence, this convention targets every participant to be able to help peers in difficulties, to ease their problems. The support that we give to others will eventually make this society a better one.<br />“Management is doing things right; leadership is doing the right things.” ~ Peter F. Drucker<br />72072536322<br />Objectives<br />Leadership development - public speaking, facilitation skills

2. Social emotional learning - peer counseling, peer mediationTransitional support - effective communication, lesson plan crafting <br />Leadership Development: Sharpening public speaking and facilitation skills, as it is important for Peer Support Leaders (PSLs) to be able to convey messages across to others clearly and confidently.

3. Social and Emotional Learning: Consists of peer counselling and peer mediation. It is important for PSLs to be able to recognize and help our peers manage their emotions. Our aim is to help participants develop care and concern towards each other and also to peers who need emotional support. They should also be able to handle situations responsibly and effectively.

4. Transitional Support: Helping the new Secondary 1 students who have just left the 'garden’ of Primary School life and stepped into the ‘forest’ of Secondary School life, which are different in nature. PSLs should be able to communicate effectively with the students and guide them through the beginning phase of Secondary School life, and assist them so that they feel more comfortable in the new environment.415925311785<br />ItineraryDay 1 : Victoria School1500-1830<br />Overall I/Cs for Day 1 : Isabel and Zongsien<br />TimingActivity Venue1400-1415Registration of delegatesFoyer1415-1430Opening address by EXCOAuditorium1430-1615Icebreakers/Group sortingAuditorium1615-1800Talk 1: Leadership DevelopmentAuditorium1800-1830Briefing for next day/ Reflection sessionCanteen<br />Event/DutiesOrganizing team-in-chargeExtra ManpowerVenueSetup1315-1345Set up attendance boothGetting keys for auditoriumTurning on air-conditioningSet up audio system in auditoriumBring out 3 tables and a table clothDuring setup1315-1345Operations I/Cs to take attendanceEXCO to take attendanceOperations I/Cs and EXCO to brief entire SOT.Wei Hao(Admin)Dion( Research)Charmaine, Geraldyn (Operations)Joan (Ideas)Operations I/Cs and other operation members who are freeEXCOFacilitatorsGeneral office to auditoriumFoyerArrival1345-1400Ushers to stand by at foyer to wait for participants’ arrival Receptionists to stand by and wait with ushers.Vanessa, Hamida, Chor Ying, (Ushers)Jody, Diana (Registration)Operations (excluding I/Cs)Foyer1400-1415Registration commences3 stations to be set up, name lists to be taken from EXCO and Admin.TICK THE NAMES.TELL THEM THEIR ALLOCATED GROUPS WHEN THEY REGISTER.GIVE THEM THEIR FORUM BOOKLETS.Direct participants to auditorium after they are registered (Ushers)Facils in auditorium to hold up group namesFinal check of slides and IT equipmentShrida, Saranya, Joan (Ideas)Zhi Peng (Research)Hsin Hsuan, Brandon Ho, Benson Choo, Zi Xin, Livia, Zhi Peng, Elizabeth (Facils I/Cs of various groups)Zhen Rong, Carolyn (Admin)Research and Acads HeadsOperationsFoyer to AuditoriumAuditorium1415-1430EXCO Address(Moving time to next venue : 5 minutes)Address by EXCOBriefing for the dayFacils to introduce and start initial facilitation activities if there is extra timeAdmin members in charge of IT equipment (I.e. setting up powerpoint slides)During EXCO address1415-1420Get Hall keys and unlock the venue.1420-1425 Switch on fansEXCOOperations I/Cs (Zongsien and Isabel)All facilsZhen Rong, Carolyn (Admin)Research and Acads HeadsStanley, Charmaine (Operations)Ideas and OperationsFoyer to AuditoriumAuditorium to Hall1430-1630Ice breaker games(Moving time to next venue: 15 minutes)-Refer to facils guideDuring Ice breakers1430-1445:Final preparation of slides (ensure everything is checked) for upcoming talk as well as check for IT equipmentSpeaker to be held in the Auditorium while Research and Ideas finalize talk content.All Facils + Requested manpower stationed in the hall; facil heads to conduct icebreaker gamesZhen Rong, Carolyn (Admin)Research and AcadsRequested manpower by FacilitatorsAuditorium to HallAuditorium1630-17151st talk: Leadership Development by :(Moving time to next venue: 10 minutes)Admin members in charge of IT equipmentKah heng, Zhi Peng (Acads and Research)Zhen Rong, Carolyn (Admin)Operation I/Cs on holdHall to AuditoriumAuditorium 1715-1800Proposal crafting/ Lesson planningKah Heng, Zhi Peng (Acads and Research) Weihao (Admin)Facils to help outAuditorium1800-1815DismissalAuditorium to CanteenAuditorium to General Office and AV rooms1815-1700Debriefing for SOTSOT to be briefed by operations for tomorrow’s event.

Someone will start by shouting another person’s name. <br />The whacker will then try to hit the person, whose name is called before her partner, who is standing up, calls another person’s name. <br />The name called must be that of a person sitting down and only his/her partner who is standing up can call another person’s name. <br />The whacker will change once she successfully whacks someone before his/her partner calls out another name. <br />The person who is standing up will then sit down and the previous whacker will stand behind him/her.<br />Objective:<br />For the students to get to know each other’s name and remember which name belongs to which person. <br />Bang Bang!<br />424180208915VenueHallWet WeatherN.A.Duration20 minutesLogisticsNIL<br />How to play: <br />1.

The person whose name got called must squat down and the people around him/her have to bang each other.<br />5. Whoever is slower will have to squat down and he/she is out of the game.<br />6. The person in the middle is allowed to distract others by pointing at one person, but saying the other person’s name instead.<br />7. The one faster will then stand up again and the game resumes.<br />8. If the person who got shot does not squat down quick enough, she will also be out of the game.<br />9. The game ends when everyone except three has been eliminated out of the game.<br />Objectives: <br />For the students to get to know each other’s name<br />To test everyone’s reaction capability<br />Blanket Game<br />49911074930VenueHallWet WeatherN.ADuration20 minutesLogisticsBlankets<br />How to play:<br />1.

At that time, the group must work together to lower the stick to the ground. <br />Everyone’s index fingers MUST remain in contact with the stick at all times. The stick must rest on top of their fingers at all times (no grabbing, finger curling).<br />Inevitably, the stick rises almost instantly - causing laughter, frustration, or confusion. The rise is caused by the small ripples of upward pressure as individuals each try to remain in contact with the stick. After refocusing, the group will be able to lower the stick. <br />Use one person’s height as a guide.<br />If the group has finished before the time limit, let them try to do it with the hula hoops.<br />Objectives:- To challenge the process as it is not an easy game<br />- To encourage teamwork<br />Amazing Race Games<br />4972051285875<br />GroupsStations SequenceSagitta1234567Ursa2345671Pyxis3456712Orion4567123Rotanev5671234Tucana6712345Equuleus7123456<br />550545186690Straw Man!<br />Venue:Canteen Wet Weather:N.A.Duration:15 minsLogistics:150 straws, 15m of masking tape, newspapers <br />How to play:<br />Each group will be given 10 straws, 1m of masking tape and 1 sheet of newspaper
