BBE Spring View RC Racial Harmony Party- 23 July 2011 Saturday


Thank you for taking part in tonight's Racial Harmony Party held from 7.30pm. It was a great night with great entertainment and lots of exciting games with prizes.

The night started slow with game stalls set up for all residents to take part in. The games were simple and every participant walked home with at least one souvenirs. An NEA exhibition booth and game stall were also available for all residents to learn on the various tactics in the mozzie operations to wipe away aedes mosquitoes and help to prevent dengue.

The party move into the next gear and the audience were entertained with songs and dance. The children were then treated with a magic show by Captain Dazzle. It was funny watching the magic show. Most of the children were really 'dazzled' by the talking drawing on a small whiteboard.

There were lots of games prepared for the children and every single child went home with prizes.

Finally, the lucky draws drew the whole crowd to full attention with anticipation to win a prize. Eventually the lucky ones won the web quiz prizes and party lucky draw prizes ranging from waist bag to gift vouchers.

It was another successful event done up by the residents' committee. There will be more events coming soon. So watch out for them and see you soon.

BBE Volunteer Induction Programme 3 - 09 July 2011 Saturday



A new batch of inductees have begun their VIP training at BBE CC on Sunday 9th July! It was a heart-thumping moment as the new inductees raced around the CC, searching for hidden clues frantically as they played the Amazing Race. All of them had only 1 goal in mind - To reach the finishing line FIRST.
Piecing the word puzzle together at the finishing line was no easy feat.
United as one, the 5 teams put their heads together and solved the puzzle, a message which tells them the vision and passion behind being a volunteer of the grassroots:
Volunteering with the Grassroots Organisations
Promote neighbourliness and community bonding
Connect with people to forge multi-racial harmony and social cohesion, and inculcate a sense of belonging among Singaporeans
Be the bridge between the Government and the people by providing feedback and helping to explain and implement government policies
Help address local issues and render social assistance to needy Singaporeans
Help instil a sense of social responsibility among Singaporeans

For more information about volunteering in the community, you can refer to:
