Dear SJAB cadets and NCOs applying for the overseas trip to Penang,
Please note that you have to submit the following documents before Friday 28 July:
1. Consent Form K signed by parent
2. Photocopy of passport (with at least 6 months expiry)
3. OF Form with income slip of parents attached
4. Deposit of $160 (for family income below or equal $3500), or $240 (for family income above $3500). The preferred mode of payment is cheque addressed to Anderson Secondary School. But cash can be accepted too.
Please note that the final cost of the trip may go slightly up or down depending on the airline charges for the flight and the finalised programme.
For submission, you can pass me directly in School Level 1 General Office from 7.05am to 7.30am. Please do not ask someone to pass the form or money on your behalf as there were incidents in the past where the friend forget to pass and we could not take the student after the deadline.
Please also note that the submission does not imply you have been selected. Cause we can only take a certain number of applicants so there will be a selection process if the demand is above 13-14. Selection will then be based on contributions and whether you have traveled on an SJAB overseas trip before. In the event we have to make a selection, we will also return you back the money and forms if you fall short during the selection.
Please also take note that applicants must be able to take a bit of hardship for this trip, as its a VIA and learning trip, not exactly a sightseeing trip. The hardship is in terms of ambiance and quality of food, physical element involved in hiking, the labour chores for VIA in orphanage, and lodging in safe 3 star hotel. The main focus of the trip is on leadership training and enriching others.
If you do encounter any issues, you can approach me.
The deadline for submission is 28 July 3pm.
Thank you
Mr Yong
