7th of the September, an auspicious morning whereby Year 3 and Year 2 Pharmacy Students gathered together to give the newcomers a warmest welcome and had a wonderful team-building session.


Let's Dance!

All of it started with warming up session led by the pinkish dancing crew. They had brought us three amazing dances that sweat off our shyness.


Culture shock or shy to dance? =)
Breakfast has arrived!

Now the race shall begin!

After the briefing of the rules and choosing the group leader, a team-building race began.

What is our group name?
4 groups of enthusiastic participants were assembled and came out with their extraordinary group names.



The day was greatly honoured by the presence of Dr Selvakumar, Miss Vijaya and their son.

Communication is all about conveying the message effectively and perceiving the correct meaning. Not only by language, drawing was also a useful tool to convey message.

Trust is a very gift that should be cherished. The value of trustworthy was instilled in these team-building where participants learned to trust their leader's instruction and vice versa.

The snake game: Let your leader guide you!
Tap... tap... squat...
The snake found it.
Solve the puzzle: Believe me, our leader!
What is my destiny?

How do we overcome our differences in background, principle and language to work together as a team? How do we work together when the conditions are unfavourable for communication?

With respect and passion.

The prize giving ceremony was began with Dr Selvakumar and Miss Vijaya speeches.
Appreciating the effort of the organizing committee and the enthusiasm portrayed by the participants, Dr Selvakumar concluded his speech with the saying, 

"Lets not call the older ones as Seniors, they are peers and we should be united as one."

Share & Reflect

The team-building proceeded to the sharing session and reflection session.

"I realised that there are four types of people among us during the games. The first type of people was those I name as "plants", they are silent most of the time, but they have ideas. They are those who need opportunity to shine. The second category was the "optimists", they are the pillar of spirit in their group who always encourage their peers for not losing hope. And there are the "thinkers" who can generate ideas in a blink of time and say "ah-ha, I think I know how to do this." Then, the last type of person was the "executer", the one who can bring sparks of idea into reality", She Yee shared her opinions during the sharing session.

During the sharing session, the facilitators allocated in each groups explained the values instilled in each games which are essential to pharmacist practice. It was a great opportunity for the participants to exchange thoughts and to foster the relationship between the peers even closer.

The reflection session was facilitated by the Organizing Chairpersons, Wendy Yee and She Yee. Asking the participants to close their eyes and reflect what could be done better during the team-building games, they manage to brought the participants into deep thoughts and memories. 

Kimchi!

Sushi~
The Great thing was everyone enjoyed and gained something at the end of the day. 

"No matter which group you belong to, always remember that you are UNIQUE"
