24th October was our last training day for 2017 and LYSS NPCC went out for a Bubble Soccer enrichment!

Conducted at the Cage, the instructors led our cadets through 4 different games: Bubble Dodgeball, Bubble Invasion, Bubble Captain and Bubble Soccer!

While it was tiring, all the cadets had lots of fun knocking their friends over!

As part of our new initiative, NPCC organised the first-ever Inter-UG Games Day for all the Secondary One Uniformed Group students in Loyang Secondary School.

A Protect-the-King Dodgeball tournament was held and the various UGs formed teams to participate actively!

The competition was very intense as each UG fought for the bragging rights!

In 2017, LYSS NPCC was involved in 2 National Day Observance Ceremonies that were held concurrently.

Led by Parade Commander SSgt (NPCC) Darren Chng, LYSS NPCC and Girl Guides 1st Coy conducted a National Day Observance Ceremony @ Punggol Cove Primary School.

At the same time, LYSS NPCC were also part of the school's National Day Observance Ceremony.

It was marvelous effort by all as the Cadet Leaders led them in the training independently.

While all these events required lots of time and effort, the cadets definitely had an enriching experience and showed pride during both ceremonies!

All the Secondary 1 cadets are promoted to the rank of Lance Corporal.

And the Secondary 2 cadets are promoted to the rank of Corporal.

LYSS NPCC held its Protect-the-King Dodgeball Competition on 8th July this year!

With teams getting familiar with how the game is played, the competition has gotten more intensive each year!

The National Police Cadet Corps celebrate its birthday on 7th May each year, the eve of the founding of NPCC.

LYSS NPCC held our own Observance Ceremony on 23rd May 2017 during morning assembly. During the ceremony, the NPCC Day message was read before every member of the NPCC belted out the NPCC Pledge with pride and gusto! It reminds all members of NPCC the reason why they decided to join NPCC.

On the same day, we bade farewell to our Deputy OC, Insp (NPCC) Tan Hui Yu as she will be leaving the school in June. We wish her all the best in her future endeavours.

As part of Singapore's SGSecure movement, the secondary 2 cadets put up a skit during morning assembly where they shared with the school on the key elements of SGSecure.

The students were also educated on how to "Run, Hide, Tell" in the event of a terrorist attack.

In term 2, our cadets took part in various competitions organised by other NPCC Units.

Held on 21st March, the team of Sabrina Soh, Ignatius Ho and Sathish Kumar participated in the Hai Sin Catholic School NPCC Pioneering Competition.

Despite not much preparation, they managed to come in 4th for the competitions!

On 1st April, our cadets participated in 2 different competitions. The first would be a CSI Competition held by Pasir Ris Secondary School NPCC. The team of Nur Shahirah, Ryan Lai, Putri Nur Amani and Valen Chee had to sieve through the large amount of clues as they attempt to solve the murder mystery!

At the same time, the team of Joshua Khoo, Muhammad Azroy and Muhammad Idris took part in the Victoria School NPCC Challenge Unlimited Games Day where they played 3-on-3 basketball matches.

With only a total of 152 recipients amongst all graduating Sec 4 & 5 cadets in Singapore, we are proud to announce that SI (NPCC) Radhi Priya Janakiraman of 4E1 is one of the recipients! She continues our achievement of having at least 1 Cadet Leader receiving the award each year since 2010!

She received the badge from the hands of Mr. Lau Peet Meng, Acting Commissioner of Police, Singapore Police Force during the SPF-NPCC Badge Presentation Ceremony, held at Harmony Hall in Home Team Academy on 28th March 2017. Our Vice-Principal, Ms. Ng Bee Ling was also present to observe the proud moment for these cadets.

Congratulations to all the recipients and we hope that Loyang Secondary School NPCC Unit will continue to have recipients of the SPF-NPCC Badge every year!

This year, LYSS NPCC has the privilege again to visit the Police K-9 Unit on 15th March 2017!

The dogs demonstrated their important roles as assistants to the Police Officers in their jobs of searching for prohibited items and taking down suspects.

After the demonstrations, it was the time that our cadets were looking forward to as they had a enjoyable time interacting with the cute dogs!

The Passing-Out Parade on 7th March 2017 witnesses the graduating Sec 4 & 5 Cadet Leaders as they take part in their last parade. During the parade, they received plaques & certificates of appreciation for OC Unit, ASP (NPCC) Harry Wong, to thank them for their dedication and contribution to LYSS NPCC Unit.

We wish them all the best and may they do well in their upcoming 'N' and 'O' Level Examinations as well as their future endeavours!

It's time of the year for our Annual Camp and this year we revert back to 3D2N so that everyone has more time to bond together!

The Sec 4/5 Cadet Leaders planned and executed a series of old and new activities which includes an amazing race to Pasir Ris Park! These activities have definitely gotten everyone closer together over the 3 days!

Despite the inclement weather, we still managed to put up a campfire within 30 mins and have our usual fun and laughter through the 2nd night!

The Unit also helped those who were born in January and February celebrate their birthdays!

We also do not forget to award our best with Puteri Hadeel and Razin Khan were awarded the Best Campers for the camp as they showed care and concern for their fellow campers.

Ahmad Asyraaf and Syazwina Raihanah were also selected as the Best Group Leaders for the Camp.

On 9th February, the Sec 1 cadets got to use the bouldering & rock climbing facilities in school as they tried them out! It was a enriching experience for them and some even overcame their fear of heights!

Thank you Ms Beatrix Chong & LYSS Rock Climbing for facilitating the course for us!

As part of LYSS NPCC welfare efforts, the Unit celebrated Chinese New Year with a Lo Hei session for all cadets & teachers!

LYSS NPCC Unit wishes all a happy Chinese New Year!

As part of the Unit's contribution back to the community, Sec 1 NPCC cadets planned and executed the Children's Cancer Foundation Fund Raising from 1st to 3rd February as their Values-In-Action (VIA) programme!

Two Sec 1 cadets, Cdt (NPCC) M Sana & Cdt (NPCC) Valen Chee mustered their courage to promote the fund raising during the morning assembly on 25th January.

When the day arrived, the Secondary 1 cadets carried out their mission responsibly and enthusiastically, resulting in a total of $412 raised through the selling of merchandise and receipt of donations. They have indeed done a great job and would have gained lots of experience through this initiative!

As part of our efforts to contribute back to the community, LYSS NPCC accepted Pasir Ris Neighbourhood Police Centre's (NPC) invitation to perform at their Community Appreciation Night.

During the event, cadets from NPCC put up a skit to demonstrate how SGSecure is necessary in Singapore. They also showed how everyone can play a part in keeping Singapore safe by staying alert, staying united and staying strong!

The cadets that participated in the skit are: Cpl (NPCC) Ahmad Asyraaf, Cpl (NPCC) Darren Chng, Cpl (NPCC) Ignatius Ho, Cpl (NPCC) Muhammad Azroy, Cpl (NPCC) Sathish Kumar, Cpl (NPCC) Sharan Venthan, Cpl (NPCC) Sabrina Soh and Cpl (NPCC) Syazwina Raihanah. They started training since the December holidays in 2016 and their efforts paid off as the skit ended to a rousing applause from the audience!

LYSS NPCC would like to thank Pasir Ris NPC for giving us this opportunity and we hope that we can contribute more to the community in the future!

After which the students joined for a game of handball which they had great fun and made friends with our NPCC cadets.

Regardless whether the students will join us in the end, we vow to give them a good time while they are here with us.

From the looks on their faces, we know that we have delivered that and the Sec 1s left with happy faces!
