This is our fifth year back at Chung Cheng High Sch (Main)! Our strong team of 50 volunteers came early morning, ready to take on the exciting YCDI programme to the Secondary One students of CCHS! The students came to the hall in high spirits and during the programme, they were spontaneous and enthusiatic! Here's some beautiful moments captured during the programme:
We had a privilege to have our first “You can do it!” session with sec 3E10 of Yishun Secondary school. Thanks goes to our old friend Stanley Ang who was one of our first few groups of trained volunteer and now a teacher in Yishun Secondary School who believe in our message and invite to have the session with his form class. This is what he said after the programme:
"Dear friends, Would like to specially thank you for making time & resources to do this run for my form class. The response from my students were tremendous (far more than what i ask or imagine). All of them felt very affirmed and encouraged by the session - and many wanted more facilitators to be around and more such workshops :D YCDI has helped me won the trust of the class to a great extent. Many students who were 'previously switched off' or 'close to giving up' are now more responsive and receptive to me. Thanks for doing such a wonderful job with my class free of charge! Hope this will really open up more doors for you in the future.” - Stanley Ang (3E10 Class Form Teacher)
Also, below is the video of our brave friend, Jack, to sing a song for the class despite all the teasing words from your friends! Well done Jack and I am encouraged by your bravery!

Once again thank you my dear friend at 3E10 of Yishun Sec! You guys are special and all the best for your coming exams and remember you guys are special! :)
It's been two weeks and people still having post-camp fever. Here's the photos from the recent West 4 Cluster Leadership Camp 2008 It really brings back a lot of fun memories both from the volunteers and students who took part in it. You guys are the best!

Trybe believes that with the "You Can" attitude, a person can have the freedom to explore what he is good at and to discover and wholeheartedly pursue his dreams.
We have been very excited about the many new ranges of opportunities unseen before to encourage this spirit into lots of youth since the beginning of this year! Not only do we want to convey this message, we are also constantly looking for ways to do and make things better in our own lives and in Trybe. Thus we have come up with the inaugural e-newsletter (in its ever truest sense) to show how we are relentless in growing and becoming better!
View it here! (Right click, choose 'Open in new tab' to see the full page of the E-Newsletter)

Yours sincerely, Jovita and Mirabel Editors of Trybe newsletter
