Bandar Seri Begawan - The badminton team of Chung Hun Middle School in Kuala Belait embarked on a three-day-two nights camping trip recently.

This is the second such trip to be organised by the school's badminton squad. The camp involves numerous challenging activities such as trekking, hiking and surviving in the primary jungle. Among the objectives of the event were to provide students with a rewarding experience that was both mentally and physically challenging while providing a learning-environment and self-development experience.

It also helped to develop team spirit, enhance leadership skills amongst students, improve students' relationship and develop their life skills such as independence, communication and self responsibilities.

The camp encouraged students to develop and achieve personal objectives and problem solving; enhance their self-esteem, to allow them to apply life survival skills such as building tents, cooking, practising knots, day and night direction training.

Apart from that the participants were also brought to the Hangar Information Centre as well as the new Heritage Gallery followed by a visit to the Longhouse to experience how the natives live. According to one of the teachers, the camp was an overall success. -- Courtesy of Borneo Bulletin
